The sword in the stone / Walt Disney Productions ; story by Bill Peet ; directed by Wolfgang Reitherman.
The English king dies leaving no heir. In the churchyard of a cathedral in London, a sword appears imbedded in a stone. It is inscribed with a prophecy. Although many try, no one can budge the sword from the stone. Deep in the dark woods, Merlin the Magician begins to teach 11-year-old Arthur, who lives in the castle of Sir Ector where he's an apprentice squire to Sir Kay. Arthur learns the basic truths of life, but he also runs into the evil Madam Mim, who tries to destroy him. A great tournament is held in London to pick a new king. Arthur, attending as Kay's squire, forgets Kay's sword, and runs back to the inn to get it, but the inn is locked. Arthur, seeing the sword in the stone, innocently, and easily, pulls it out. When the knights marvel at the wondrous sword and question where he got it, Arthur has to prove himself all over again by pulling the sword from the stone.

"Embark on an adventure-filled quest for an unlikely hero. According to legend, only someone with honor, decency and inner strength can claim the throne of England by pulling out the enchanted sword that lies locked in a massive stone. Many brave knights have tried, so it seems impossible that a young apprentice known as Wart could succeed. But with the guidance of the wizard Merlin, help from some hilarious friends and true strength of character, Wart just might become England s greatest king. There's even more wizardry fun with marvelous new bonus features including the all-new Merlin's Magical Academy game, animated shorts, Disney s song selection and much more. The Sword In The Stone: 45th Anniversary Special Edition DVD is a magical experience for the whole family." - Baker & Taylor
Aided by the wizard Merlin, young squire Arthur finds his destiny as England's ruler.
