Hello,
I am looking for a television series from the 60s. It was about a child and a racehorse, and in the end, the horse wins a horse race.
Thank you in advance for your response.
Best regards

Yes, that's it, Takirou. Where could we find him?

I’m also looking for that cartoon with the butterflies. I know it was Anita with the white wings. I really liked the song, but I can't find it anywhere. It's frustrating! They always say that you can find everything on the internet, but that's not always true. Thanks for finding it for me!

The name of the movie is "The Horse and the Child" by Kiji Shima.
The horse's name is Takirou and the child's name is Jiro.
I am also looking for the movie.

I remember the movie very well... I'm also looking for it
I would say it must be from the years 1965-1966, I was 5 or 6 years old
I remember this little Asian boy (Chinese) who loved a mare, who died giving birth to her young foal
Unfortunately, the child rejected the foal (Takirou), holding him responsible for the death of his mare.
The father, with great wisdom, teaches the child to overcome the trials of life and manages to get him to accept riding the young horse in order to prepare him for a horse race.
Then a fire breaks out in the stables, the father saves the horse (Takirou) at the cost of his own life... Again, he makes Takirou responsible for his father's death.
Remembering what his father taught him, the child understands that it is only fate... and that this race that his father trained him hard for is important;
he participates, the horse is not in the best position.
The child realizes that his horse is just obeying and feels the lack of love. So, before the end of the race, the child speaks to him and shows his affection for Takirou... The horse begins to want to live, to fight for his little master, and will win the race.

Hello, I read your text about this film that I saw at the age of ten in a summer camp in 1960 or 1962. I am now 60 years old, and I am also searching for this film.
Best regards, deudeu 58

I am also looking for this movie because I saw it in the 60s and it touched me. I tried to find it on the internet without any response. I would like to show it to my daughter because she is passionate about horses and her profession is as an equine caregiver.

Look in the books by Cécile Aubry; her son was the young actor Medhi.

Hello again,

I also remember a show that I loved: it's Sebastien among men!
This series is the sequel to Belle and Sebastien. He joins his father at his stud farm and is going to feel very lonely, but he will fall in love with a horse and train it for a highly sought-after race. At least something like that! I was very little at that time!

I know that on Amazon you can find the VHS box sets

I'm still rummaging through my memories and I'll let you know if another title comes to mind!

Hello, my name is Gérard and I also like to remember my childhood memories. I remember very well this TV show; I recall all those series that marked my youth. I'm also looking for a TV series, but it’s an animated show about butterflies, and I can’t remember the title. It must be something like "Anita with White Wings," but I'm not sure!!!

I also think of Crin Blanc, maybe? From the sky, he draws with his hooves on a beach on the white sand.

<bold>Hello,

I remember a show somewhat like that from the 60s, the horse was named TAKIROU, but maybe that's not the one you're looking for!

It's actually a Japanese film from 1955, Maboroshi no uma (The Horse and the Child), directed by Koji Shima, starring Bontaro Miake, Ayako Wakao, Yukihiro Iawatre, Yoshiro Kitahara...

A summary:
In Hokkaido, an island in Japan known for horse breeding, little Jiro carefully looks after the weaning of his foal Takeru. Jiro's older brother wishes to be a jockey, but their father refuses, having already lost one son...

Otherwise, there was: "Fury" (1955) TV series 1955-1960

Good luck with your research</bold>

Thank you for helping me remember the name of that movie that left a mark on me during my childhood. I had always kept the name of the horse in mind, and I see that I am not the only one. I would like to know if you have any information on how to obtain this film. Thank you.

I have memories of this film too, at fifty years old it marks my memory as a young
child I remember the end of the film with great emotion when the horse dies and goes to heaven.

The horse dies and goes to heaven. The sad child throws his harmonica (from the top of a bridge?) onto the train tracks. It was with this harmonica that the child played in the stable (when the horse was sick?).
