A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court / The Emperor Waltz
This classic Bing Crosby Double Feature begins with 'A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court' (1949). Adapted from Mark Twain's story, Bing is a 20th Century mechanic who gets bumped on the head and wakes up in King Arthur's 6th Century England.
