A bump on the head sends Hank Martin, 1912 mechanic, to Arthurian Britain, 528 A.D., where he is befriended by Sir Sagramore le Desirous and gains power by judicious use of technology. He and Alisande, the King’s niece, fall in love at first sight, which draws unwelcome attention from her fiancée Sir Lancelot; but worse trouble befalls when Hank meddles in the kingdom’s politics.

Viewing Notes
Childhood film that I watched often recently came to mind when I was viewing another movie so I wanted to revisit. Still somewhat entertaining but also quite silly. He forges a revolver that shoots perfectly. Yeah sure. Forgot a lot of the story but recalled the eclipse scene, which was an amazing coincidence.
Rhonda Fleming was indeed the Technicolor Queen.
