"Greystoke: The Legend of Trazan, Lord of the Apes" (1984, Warner Bros., dir. Hugh Hudson, novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, 143 min, UK) This is the famous novel of an infant raised by apes when a ship is stranded in West Africa in 1866, and then brought back to civilization, one of the possibilities for a country with a huge far-flung empire. Ralph Richardson is Lord Greystoke, and Christopher Lambert is John Clayton or Trazan.
During the sountrack, Sir Edward Elgar's First Symphony in A-flat Major (an unusual key), with its somber, noblimente theme, plays, at the beginning and end. The work is odd in that in the first movement the main body of music moves to the tritone key of d minor.
The book was a favorite of my rather in childhood and was in a family bookcase.
