Katy, la oruga

Wow!!! I'm just shocked... I saw this movie when I was about 8 years old, and I have just discovered it wasn't from the Disney Studios. You must understand that for a girl that age at that time, knowing the difference was not important. I remember seeing it like 20 times, I just adored it. The story of Katy was so appealing for me. I loved the end when she finally became a beautiful butterfly. I know it is no "Bug's Life" or "Finding Nemo", but for an 8 year old girl in Panama in 1984 it was wonderful animated entertainment.

i saw "katy the caterpiller" about 18 years ago and thot it was the sweetest animated movie i had ever seen. it kept my attention thru the whole movie and it even made me have tears watching the sadness katy went thru wanting to be something so different from what she was.

i wish this movie would be shown again as i have thot about it all thru the years and wondered why it has never been on tv anymore. i have a lot of memories just thinking of that movie and the little caterpiller who finally got her wish by becoming a beautiful butterfly.

please, can you not find this movie in your warehouse somewhere and bring it back to life so that children and adults can enjoy this darling little movie!

thank you

I recorded this movie off of TV when my children were little (some of them had not even been born yet!) I still have the VHS tape and plan on transferring it to DVD when i have the time. I would love for any future grandchildren I might have to see this delightful movie.

Another movie/show I remember from when I was a child was called "for the Love of Fred". Fred was a caterpillar that changed into a butterfly at the end of the show. I have not been able to find any listings, information, etc...about this movie. I was probably about 10-12 when I saw it, so that would have been a LONG time ago--over 40 years ago! If you have any info on it I would appreciate you sending me a message,

Thanks!

Katy the caterpillar has been one of the best animated films ever made. Even today, the story is so moving, so tender, so sweet, it reaches every heart. I have a daughter who is only 18 months and she just adores this film.

The story is so simple that it is great! a caterpillar who wants to become a "flying flower", and goes trough life finding her own destiny despite all the comments made from her sisters. It gives a great message as to always pursue your dreams.

I was only three when it was shown in Mexico, and I still have that tape when it was shown on TV. I wish they show both films again, this one and the second part (Katy, kiki y koko)

It is a very forgotten jewel of animation; the plot is simple but beautiful, the animation is quite good and the music is very good; I recommend it.
