Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Disney's take on the tale of King Arthur.Loosely adapted from the novel of the same name by T. H. White, which became part one of The Once and Future King.This film version was made in 1963, as the 18th entry in the Disney Animated Canon. It was Walt Disney's penultimate animated film and the last one released while he was still alive. At the start of the story, the king Uther Pendragon has died. Soon after, a sword stuck in an anvil atop a large boulder appears in London bearing the words "Whoso pulleth out this sword of this stone and anvil is rightwise King born of England." However, no one is able to succeed at this task, and the throne lies vacant, awaiting a King.Cut several years later to the main protagonist, twelve-year-old Arthur, an orphan who was taken in and raised by Sir Ector. Usually called Wart by his adoptive family, and training to be a squire, he is under the apprenticeship of Sir Kay, his older foster brother. One day, while accompanying Kay on a hunting trip, Wart inadvertently distracts the knight, causing the aim of his arrow to go off target, missing the deer and losing the ammo. The younger boy goes into the forest to retrieve it. While doing so, he accidentally crashes into the house of the magician Merlin. Upon meeting, the wizard declares that he will tutor Wart, a decision that greatly changes the boy's life.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Notably, this film was the last to be released during Walt Disney's lifetime; he would die three years later during the production of The Jungle Book, which wouldn't see release until ten months after his passing. | |

Abhorrent Admirer: Merlin and Wart both find themselves with unwanted attention when they're squirrels. The one who falls for Merlin is portrayed as comical when Merlin resumes human form, angrily retreating to her lair and shaking her fist at Merlin. The one squirrel who falls for Wart is drawn to be extremely cute and instead of being portrayed as comical she's portrayed as heartbroken and sympathetic. | |

Abusive Parents: Sir Ector considers himself Arthur's foster parent, but he treats him more like a servant, piling on more and more chores and punishing him for things as trivial as Merlin enchanting the dishes and telling "crazy fish stories". To be fair though, this was probably lenient fathering considering the time-period. | |
