FORGED BY A GOD. FORETOLD BY A WIZARD. FOUND BY A KING. From John Boorman, the director of Point Blank, Deliverance and Zardoz comes the definitive cinematic telling of the life and enduring legend of King Arthur, from birth to death and beyond. Behold, the Sword of Power! Excalibur! Forged when the world was young, and bird and beast and flower were one with man and death was but a dream. Given by Merlin to Uther Pendragon to unite the land in peace but wasted on lust. Driven into stone by Uther’s dying hand, there to await the coming of a true King. A journey into the wonders and horrors of the imagination, this is the story of Arthur, the knights of the round table, the golden age of Camelot, the quest for the Holy Grail and of course, the wizard, Merlin. With an extraordinary cast that includes Helen Mirren, Gabriel Byrne, Nicol Williamson and Liam Neeson, Oscar-nominated cinematography by Alex Thomson (Legend) and a thundering score by Trevor Jones, Excalibur returns in a stunning 4K restoration. From the blood and mud of the battlefield, to the glowing green of ancient woods and gleaming gold of Camelot, experience Excalibur as you never have before. 2-DISC 4K ULTRA HD SPECIAL EDITION CONTENTS DISC 1 – FEATURE (4K ULTRA HD BLU-RAY) • 4K restoration from the original 35mm negative by Arrow Films presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.66:1 for the first time on home video • 4K (2160p) Ultra HD Blu-ray presentation of the Theatrical Cut in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible) • Restored original lossless mono and DTS-HD MA 5.1 audio options • Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing • Audio commentary by Brian Hoyle, author of The Cinema of John Boorman • Audio commentary by filmmaker David Kittredge, director of Boorman and the Devil • Archive audio commentary by director John Boorman DISC 2 – EXTRAS (BLU-RAY) • The Making of Excalibur: Myth into Movie, a 48-minute documentary directed by Neil Jordan during the production of Excalibur • To Be a Knight and Follow a King, an interview with director John Boorman and actor Charley Boorman • When Death Was but a Dream, an interview with creative associate Neil Jordan • The Charm of Making, an interview with production designer Anthony Pratt • Confessions of a Professional “Pain-in-the-ass”, an interview with 2nd unit director Peter MacDonald • Anam Cara, a featurette on the working friendship of John Boorman and co-writer Rospo Pallenberg featuring a newly filmed interview with Pallenberg • Divided Nature, a featurette by film historians Howard S.
