I have been looking for this movie for years. I couldn't remember the title. I saw it on, I think, a Kukla, Fran, and Ollie Saturday Matinée show, circa 1975. As a kid, I was into Kimba and Speed Racer, so anything anime was good for me. I only remember that the guy monkey was very selfish and had to wear a gold band on his head for punishment, and the girl monkey traveled in a snow storm trying to help him. I didn't even realize the speaking voices were famous movie stars - why would I, I was only 10 or 11. Thanks to the previous writer (who hated it) for their comments, otherwise I would have never found it's title. Now the search is on to purchase it!
