In one of the new sequences, the devastation caused by the fire gives Kimba the idea for clearing the land for a farm.Ĥ minutes of edited-together work scenes as the farm is started. There's 4 minutes from "The Wind In The Desert": the scene where Kimba scares Tom and Tab away from Bucky.Ĩ minutes are taken from "Great Caesar's Ghost": the parts where Kimba stands up to Samson, thinks everyone is against him, and where Bucky, Dan'l and Pauley pretend to be Caesar.ġ minute from "The Red Menace": scenes of the fire. This has been edited differently, so that _all_ of Caesar's scenes take place in the form of flashbacks. The first 24 minutes come from the first episode, "Go White Lion". The other original scenes are very brief, and they just exist to connect the various elements that have been pieced together from the TV episodes there's nothing new in the way of story in this movie.īasically, the movie breaks down like this: The longest sequence that doesn't come from the TV show is the end credits sequence, which basically is just 2 or 3 minutes of the animals walking through the jungle.
I'm talking about the animation-the music was obviously re-recorded, and there had to be some new dialog to accommodate changes in the story, so I guess that's why they say it was a new production. The majority of the movie comes from episodes #1 and #41 ("Go, White Lion" and "The Destroyers from the Desert") with scenes from episodes #2, #4, #48, and #20 ("The Wind in the Desert", "Great Caesar's Ghost", "The Red Menace", and "Restaurant Trouble"). Contrary toĬlaims on the Tezuka Company web site, well over 90% of this movie is taken directly from the TV series, sometimes connected with brief new scenes created for this movie. The rumors about this movie turned out to be true. It received its first release to home video in 2005, in Japan only. This film won an award at the Venice International Film Festival in 1967: a Silver Lion. The Japanese title was the same as the TV show: Jungle Emperor. In 1966, a theatrical movie of Kimba The White Lion was released in Japan. Kimba The White Lion - The 1966 Movie The 1966 Movie
