A summary generally wouldn't require any kind of disclaimer. As long as you're not quoting heavily from the original material, you wouldn't be even close to infringing.If you are quoting heavily, the only disclaimer that might help would be one saying that you are quoting by permission of the copyright holder.

To request copyright permission for a Disney property, write to the Permissions Department at the Disney organization. However, there is a 'fair use' doctrine in copyright that permits a limited amount of use without permission. While it is not precisely defined, this is the provision that allows a writer to quote a few lines from a book or movie in a review without seeking permission. Two lines from a film may well be 'fair use' and quoting such a small part of the work would not then require permission of the copyright holder.

It is copyrighted until 70 years after the author's death, under British law, but public domain in the USA, having been published in the English language prior to 1923. Like any other copyrighted works, the question of "fair use" would depend upon a number of circumstances related to HOW it was being used.
