When I was a kid, I saw a movie that I'd like to find again. I was hoping
someone else might remember it. I remember the hero being a young man who
went to some woman in a cave, perhaps a witch of some sort. She gave him a
special shield, sword, white horse and perhaps other fighting stuff. I'm
pretty sure he went off to fight a dragon.

I'm sure there were mountains in the movie- perhaps Alpine mountains.

Does anyone remember this movie?

Thanks,
Jay

Jay,

Just getting to last week's mail.

Did anyone answer your request? I think that I vaguely recall this movie, I
saw it in a theater in 1966? 67? I recall that the hero was given a shield
and little figures that could be changed into fighting men (maybe by throwing
them to the ground). I also recall a cave and lots of heat, so that one of
the fighters (a knight) took his armor off. Is this the same movie?
