Key Notes

Excalibur is the legendary sword of King Arthur.  Excalibur and the Sword in the Stone.

The King Arthur legend is such good source material, and it was only a matter of time before it would appear in a Disney animated film. This particular version of the story is based on a novel by author T.H. White, who first published his book in 1938. Walt Disney acquired the movie rights to the story in 1939, and as early as 1949, story drawings began to pop up.

The Sword in the Stone focuses on Arthur’s childhood before he knows that he is to become king, and explains how he met the wizard Merlin and became his student. Arthur, or Wart, as the foster family calls him, is simple-minded at first and only wishes to become a squire and a great fighter like everyone else of the time. Merlin knows that there is so much more he can become if he would only develops his mind and use it to his advantage. This idea that education, knowledge, and intelligence should be sought after and gives one power is the central concept behind the whole movie. - Disney
