Call

There's a terrific development of call in Excalibur. First the sword in the stone bit, then the sealing of the call after Arthur's first battle. He has subdued his enemy, a nobleman, and they are standing together in a moat. People shout to have Arthur made king, but the noble (is he played by Patrick Stewart?) he can't be king--he's not even a knight. So Arthur gives the disarmed knight his own sword and, kneeling and offering his head and neck, says, "Then knight me." Great scene. (submitted by Michael Hudson, Cullowhee NC)
