Trivia:
The only animated Disney movie from the 1960s not to have a Platinum DVD, a sequel, a TV show, or a live-action remake. moreGoofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): The character Arthur, should have a British accent as he has grown up in England, but does not. moreQuotes:
Arthur: Meriln! Merlin, I swallowed a bug!Merlin: Oh, well, what's wrong with that? After all, you are a fish. Instinct, you know.
Arthur: But you said I have no instinct.
Merlin: Oh, I did. Well that's neither here nor there.

This very nice Disney Classic was based on the children's novel by TH White. This was not yet that very well-known, heavy novel titled "the Once and Future King" that so many later movies were based upon, but the lighthearted earlier version. Many agreed that the later novel has disfigured the first, so that we may be thankful for the Disney version!
Though it does not quite follow the book (this is hardly possible, at times) it is a very good version as animated movies go. Not tedious, though of an age where children were meant to learn something from a movie...
A collectors item!
