I have been a fan of this excellent movie since I saw it in the theater. I loved it so much that I bought an LP, which was the color red, and I played it over and over. I can still hear the music and feel the variety of emotions, happiness, thrill, sadness, that are part of this story. (Read the original book by James Otis, which is one of the finest young adult books to truly communicate a child's perspective. Amazing!) I showed this movie at a school when we had a circus theme and the kids loved it. It does convey the excitement of running away and doing something truly adventurous, the joy of friendships, and the sadness of loss. I would recommend this to anyone who loves adventures...and it's a must watch for every boy and girl in elementary school. I hope we cross paths one day so you and I can talk about the movie and find out if it impressed you as much as it did me. Read full review

Watched this movie when I was just a child and fell in love with it and always wanted to watch it again but couldn't remember the name of it. Fast-Forward 55 years - Mission accomplished! Still just as good as it was back then...

I love this movie because it is a good wholesome family movie suitable for any age. Children's movies in today's time have really pushed the envelope and borderline inappropriate at times. With "Toby Tyler" it is a good clean movie with a lot of funny scenes and a good storyline. I bought it for that reason. I really enjoyed this movie when I was a kid and I wanted my children to realize that classic movies that entertained my generation are just as good to entertain today's generation.
I enjoyed Toby Tyler as a child and now my kids love it too! Toby is a boy whose trying to find a place where he belongs. He learns some valuable lessons along the way and in the end realizes how important his family is to him.
