:''This is about the film. For the 1880 book see Toby Tyler; or, Ten Weeks with a Circus. For the musician previously known as 'Toby Tyler', see Marc Bolan.'' ''Toby Tyler'' is a film produced by Walt Disney Productions and distributed by Buena Vista Distribution Company on January 21, 1960. It is based on the 1880 children's book ''Toby Tyler, or Ten Weeks with a Circus'' by James Otis Kaler. It stars several actors best known for their work on the two pioneering Disney television shows of the late 1950s: Kevin Corcoran (better known as Moochie) from the Spin and Marty serials on ''Mickey Mouse Club'', and ''Zorro'' co-stars Henry Calvin and Gene Sheldon, who speaks in this movie. This was shot at Golden Oak Ranch in Newhall, California. The film aired repeatedly on the Walt Disney anthology television series. ==Synopsis== Overhearing stern Uncle Daniel describe him as a "millstone", hurt and insulted, Toby Tyler runs away from his foster home to join the circus. There he soon befriends Mr. Stubbs, the frisky chimpanzee. However, the circus isn't all fun and games. Harry Tupper, the evil candy vendor, convinces Toby that his Aunt Olive and Uncle Daniel don't love him or want him back. Devastated, Toby resigns himself to circus life, even scoring himself a much bigger role. When he discovers, with the help of Mr. Stubbs, that Harry lied to him about Aunt Olive and Uncle Daniel, who truly do love him, he departs the circus for home. On the way, Toby finds that Mr. Stubbs has followed him, and decides to take the chimp home with him, for safe keeping. Soon after though, Mr. Stubbs gets chased by a hunter's dog. The hunter, Jim Weaver, accidentally shoots Mr. Stubbs just as Harry arrives to haul Toby back to the circus. Back at the circus, Toby finds that Aunt Olive and Uncle Daniel are in attendance, leading to a tearful reunion with hugs all around. When Harry tries to pursue Toby, he's obstructed by Ben, who confronts him for misusing the Sheriff's money. Ben admonishes Harry for acting unkind and warns him to leave Toby alone. Joyfully, just before Toby's big performance, with his family in attendance, he discovers that Mr. Stubbs has survived his wounds, having been brought back to the circus by Jim. Relieved, Toby begins his performance on horseback, only to have Mr. Stubbs jump down from the trapeze to join him, thus creating a wonderful new act for the circus. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Toby Tyler」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
