Arthur's Quest is an American fantasy film of 1999 directed by Neil Mandt and starring Catherine Oxenberg, Eric Christian Olsen, Arye Gross, and Alexandra Paul.

Merlin rescues the young Arthur from Camelot and takes him to live in 20th-century North America. Some ten years later, he returns home.

Plot

The film begins at Camelot with Morgana (Catherine Oxenberg) murdering Arthur's father, Pendragon. Merlin (Arye Gross) takes Arthur, a small boy, and the sword Excalibur through time to the US in the late 20th century. There, Caitlin Regal (Alexandra Paul), a waitress, adopts Arthur. Ten years on, Arthur is a moody teenager who spends his time with Caitlin and his friend Gwen (Katie Johnston). Merlin returns for Arthur, who refuses to believe his story, but then Morgana also arrives, in pursuit of Excalibur. When she kidnaps Caitlin, Arthur takes Merlin's side. After the defeat of Morgana, Merlin takes Arthur, Caitlin, and Gwen back to Camelot, where Arthur invents the hamburger. Caitlin falls in love with Merlin and becomes Secretary of State.[1]

The plot has been called "an inversion of Mark Twain's Connecticut Yankee.[2]
