"Forged by a god. Foretold by a wizard. Found by a king."
The myth of King Arthur brought once again to the screen. Uthur Pendragon is given the mystical sword Excalibur by the wizard Merlin. At his death Uthur buries the sword into a stone, and the next man that can pull it out will be King of England. Years later Arthur, Uthur's bastard son draws Excalibur and becomes king. Guided by Merlin, Arthur marries Guenivere and gathers the Knights of the Round Table. Arthur's evil half-sister Morgana sires a son with him, who may prove his downfall.
Starring Nigel Terry, Nicol Williamson, Helen Mirren, Nicholas Clay, Cherie Lunghi, Paul Geoffery, Robert Addie, Gabriel Bryne, Patrick Stewart, and Liam Neeson.
Directed by John Boorman.
Trivia
The initial fight scene in the movie had to be filmed three times. It was filmed at night and the first two times, all the film came out underexposed due to a fault in the exposure meter. The cameraman had a nervous breakdown over the issue and quit.
Max von Sydow was originally cast as Merlin.
John Boorman was originally aiming at making a movie based on "The Lord of the Rings". However, he did not acquire the rights, and decided to make this movie instead.
The love scene between Guinevere and Lancelot was full of mosquitoes, causing even more discomfort.
When Morgana gives birth, Helen Mirren's head is up through a hole in the table while a real pregnant woman lies on the table with her head covered.
The cameraman waited with a camera running for days for the shot of a crow eating an eye. They had to wait for the crow to really eat the sheep's eye.
The red sun at the end was created with reflective disc with a lamp shining on it through a mirror. It was then superimposed.
The Camelot sets were usually bigger than the stage itself. Walls had to be cut out to accommodate it.
Morgana's breastplate is in director John Boorman's home. In his will it will be given to Helen Mirren.
The corridors of Camelot were extended by the use of a matte painting.
The black smoke in Arthur's first siege on a castle was created by burning tires. It left black flakes on a nearby town.
Reflectors were used to give the armor its glow, and they kept having a problem with camera reflections. Every time it rained the armor had to be rubbed down so it wouldn't leave a residue.
Guenevere's wedding dress was hand made from hundreds of beads. Young brides requested the dress to no avail.
Baby Arthur grabbing a hold of Igrayne's hair was a coincidence.
Before the final battle, Arthur's knights are camped around a "Stonehenge" like formation on a hill. The rocks were fake and part of the set. According to John Boorman, some American tourists were driving by down below and saw the formation. Thinking they were real, the tourists hiked up the hill, and Boorman had to explain to them that they were not real but part of a movie set.
Helen Mirren and Nicol Williamson were initially reluctant to work with each other, as they had both been in a disastrous production of "Macbeth" and were not on speaking terms.
The Irish extras fighting each other did not want to stop after director John Boorman yelled cut-"to settle old scores," says Boorman.
It rained every single day of the shoot, causing most of the movie to be shot in dull light. The constant rain also added to the lushness of the foliage.
United Artists told John Boorman that he could cast anyone as Merlin except Nicol Williamson.
Some of the crew agreed that Gabriel Byrne's Irish accent made "One night with Igrayne" sound like "One night with your granny".
The trial by combat set in the woods was originally to be the set for the Rivendel counsel chamber in John Boorman's version of "Lord of the Rings", which failed to get made.
The hand that holds Excalibur belongs to director John Boorman's daughter Telsche Boorman, lying under water.
Igrayne, The Lady of the Lake, and young Mordred were all played by director John Boorman's real-life children: Katrine Boorman, Telsche Boorman and Charley Boorman.

Excalibur is a 1981 dramatic fantasy film directed, produced and co-written by John Boorman that retells the legend of King Arthur and the knights of the Round Table. Adapted from the 15th century Arthurian romance, Le Morte d'Arthur by Thomas Malory, Excalibur features the music of Richard Wagner and Carl Orff, along with an original score by Trevor Jones. It stars Nigel Terry as Arthur, Nicol Williamson as Merlin, Nicholas Clay as Lancelot, Helen Mirren as Morgana, Liam Neeson as Gawain, Corin Redgrave as Cornwall, and (the then relatively unknown) Patrick Stewart as Leondegrance. The film is named for the legendary sword of King Arthur that features prominently in Arthurian literature.
Shot entirely on location in Ireland and employing Irish actors and crew, the film has been acknowledged for its importance to the Irish filmmaking industry and for helping launch the film careers of Neeson, as well as Gabriel Byrne, Neil Jordan and Ciarán Hinds.
Excalibur achieved moderate box office success while receiving mixed reviews. Although film critics Roger Ebert and Vincent Canby criticized the film's plot and characters, they, along with other reviewers, praised it visually. Excalibur opened at number one in the United States, eventually grossing $34,967,437 on a budget of around USD $11 million, to rank 18th in that year's receipts.

Nick's speciality in the side show is puppeteering and is billed as the "World Youngest Puppeteer". His first day at the circus Red takes him around to meet all of the other side show attractions: midget couple Tom and Thelma Tiny, world's tallest woman Goliatha, sword swallower Excalibur, tattooed lady Paula Picasso, the Man Without a Face, and a few others like the woman with no limbs and some really fat lady. The side show folks are not to associate with the big top folks, and no one associates with the carny. Nick ignores this rule, however, much to the chagrin of the circus manager. He befriends Zaranov, the lion tamer, and falls in love with Graciela one of the main attractions. Things looks great for Nick, but he will soon discover things that aren't all that nice.

"Forged by a god. Foretold by a wizard. Found by a king."
The myth of King Arthur brought once again to the screen. Uthur Pendragon is given the mystical sword Excalibur by the wizard Merlin. At his death Uthur buries the sword into a stone, and the next man that can pull it out will be King of England. Years later Arthur, Uthur's bastard son draws Excalibur and becomes king. Guided by Merlin, Arthur marries Guenivere and gathers the Knights of the Round Table. Arthur's evil half-sister Morgana sires a son with him, who may prove his downfall.
Starring Nigel Terry, Nicol Williamson, Helen Mirren, Nicholas Clay, Cherie Lunghi, Paul Geoffery, Robert Addie, Gabriel Bryne, Patrick Stewart, and Liam Neeson.
Directed by John Boorman.
Trivia
The initial fight scene in the movie had to be filmed three times. It was filmed at night and the first two times, all the film came out underexposed due to a fault in the exposure meter. The cameraman had a nervous breakdown over the issue and quit.
Max von Sydow was originally cast as Merlin.
John Boorman was originally aiming at making a movie based on "The Lord of the Rings". However, he did not acquire the rights, and decided to make this movie instead.
The love scene between Guinevere and Lancelot was full of mosquitoes, causing even more discomfort.
When Morgana gives birth, Helen Mirren's head is up through a hole in the table while a real pregnant woman lies on the table with her head covered.
The cameraman waited with a camera running for days for the shot of a crow eating an eye. They had to wait for the crow to really eat the sheep's eye.
The red sun at the end was created with reflective disc with a lamp shining on it through a mirror. It was then superimposed.
The Camelot sets were usually bigger than the stage itself. Walls had to be cut out to accommodate it.
Morgana's breastplate is in director John Boorman's home. In his will it will be given to Helen Mirren.
The corridors of Camelot were extended by the use of a matte painting.
The black smoke in Arthur's first siege on a castle was created by burning tires. It left black flakes on a nearby town.
Reflectors were used to give the armor its glow, and they kept having a problem with camera reflections. Every time it rained the armor had to be rubbed down so it wouldn't leave a residue.
Guenevere's wedding dress was hand made from hundreds of beads. Young brides requested the dress to no avail.
Baby Arthur grabbing a hold of Igrayne's hair was a coincidence.
Before the final battle, Arthur's knights are camped around a "Stonehenge" like formation on a hill. The rocks were fake and part of the set. According to John Boorman, some American tourists were driving by down below and saw the formation. Thinking they were real, the tourists hiked up the hill, and Boorman had to explain to them that they were not real but part of a movie set.
Helen Mirren and Nicol Williamson were initially reluctant to work with each other, as they had both been in a disastrous production of "Macbeth" and were not on speaking terms.
The Irish extras fighting each other did not want to stop after director John Boorman yelled cut-"to settle old scores," says Boorman.
It rained every single day of the shoot, causing most of the movie to be shot in dull light. The constant rain also added to the lushness of the foliage.
United Artists told John Boorman that he could cast anyone as Merlin except Nicol Williamson.
Some of the crew agreed that Gabriel Byrne's Irish accent made "One night with Igrayne" sound like "One night with your granny".
The trial by combat set in the woods was originally to be the set for the Rivendel counsel chamber in John Boorman's version of "Lord of the Rings", which failed to get made.
The hand that holds Excalibur belongs to director John Boorman's daughter Telsche Boorman, lying under water.
Igrayne, The Lady of the Lake, and young Mordred were all played by director John Boorman's real-life children: Katrine Boorman, Telsche Boorman and Charley Boorman.

One of the most beautiful and artistic scenes, (one of many throughout the film) where Percival retrieves the Holy Grail for Arthur, who upon drinking from it exclaims, "I did not know how empty my heart was, until it was filled."

A king to be
Come his age
For God's sake
Sorcerer
Sword in stone
Release will
Bring the throne
For the chosen one
The Almighty will point out
The only royal blood in the crowd
Excalibur
Sword of the kings
Take me on your wings
Back where I belong
Excalibur
Unworthy
Bound to fail
Noble heart
Bound to gain
Challenge your faith!
Sorcerer
Sword in stone
Release it
Ascend the throne and
Take the crown
The Almighty now throws the dice
Arthur, the man without a vice
Excalibur
Sword of the kings
Take me on your wings
Back where I belong

Precious sword
Arthur's hand
He deserves
To rule the land
Lead Britannia
Excalibur lights up the sky
