Pinocchio TV Movie 1965

Old Italy comes to life in this acclaimed musical adaptation of the classic tale of the wooden puppet that yearns to become a real boy. An evocative score, colorful costumes and exotic locales; including the sinister Land Of The Toys and the interior of a genuine Italian whale, made this fantastic adventure a wild success when it was shown on CBS television.
