Born Free & Lions?

Born Free was released in 1966. I was a little surprised to see it’s that old. It seems like it was on TV all the time when I was a kid in the '80s and I guess I thought it was more recent, like from the late '70s. It’s a scripted movie with actors, not a documentary, but it was based on a true story about a couple who raised an orphaned lion cub and then reintroduced her to the wild.

The original movie was released in 1966. The sequel, Living Free, was released in 1972 and the television series was broadcast in 1974.

That was like the favorite movie of me and my sister – when we were around six years old.

Yeah, right there with 1964’s Island of the Blue Dolphins.
