"The Sword in the Stone," 1963 is the 18th full length feature film produced by Walt Disney and it was released on December 25, 1963 by Buena Vista Distribution. The film was based on the novel of the same name, that was first published in 1938. It was later republished in 1958 as the first book of T. H. White's tetralogy "The Once and Future King." It was to be the final Disney animated film released before Walt Disney's death on December 15, 1966. The songs in the film were written and composed by the Sherman Brothers, who would become very famous for their future work on later Disney films including; "Mary Poppins," 1964, "The Jungle Book," 1967, and "Bedknobs and Broomsticks," 1971.
Madam
Mim was the villain in the film and was voiced by Martha Wentworth, a
veteran actress with a long radio history dating back to the 1920's. She
was the voice of several Disney characters in "101 Dalmatians"
including Nanny; and Mim was her final credited role. Madam Mim was
animated by two of Disney's greatest animators Milt Kahl (who also
designed the character, refining storyboard sketches from animator Bill
Peet), and Frank Thomas. Kahl animated her first appearance in the film,
her initial interaction with Arthur; while Frank Thomas oversaw her
famous "Wizards' Duel" with Merlin.
This
is a great cel of Mad Madam Mim. This is a large image with her hands clasped on the side of her face, and her eyes are open. A spectacular original piece
of animation artwork of one of Disney's most memorable contemporary
villains!
