Hello, friends. I've read the novel pretty carefully, and I don't recall any monkey.

Jules Verne did indeed write Phare au but du monde. If I remember rightly, Michael Michel made some changes for what became the original published version. The Butcher translation uses Jules' original ms.

I wanted to tell, that the contents of this film very much differs from the novel. So almost always it happens with films on literary works. Frequently "unfortunately"..
