Excalibur






1981
USA
Nigel Terry, Helen Mirren, Nicholas Clay

Type(s) of animal(s) and violence

Horses injured in battle; rabbit killed and eaten.

Level of Violence

Low; either expected (horses in battle) or off-screen (rabbit killed).  The dead rabbit is shown clearly on-screen on a spit roasting over a fire after being killed.

Is the Violence Integral to the Plot and/or Character Development?

Yes; it is appropriate to the theme and time.

When Violence Occurs in the Movie

Throughout.

Level of Potential Upset to Viewers

Should not be high except to very sensitive viewers.

Other

This is an excellent film, and one of my personal all-time favorites.  All of the violence is appropriate to a time when people hunted for meat and fought battles on horseback, and none of it is gratuitious or overdone.
