Additional InformationDirector Rob Reiner breathes vividly colored cinematic life into William Goldman's THE PRINCESS BRIDE, effectively evoking the wondrous, wide-eyed spirit of the witty 1973 novel. When a sick boy (Fred Savage) receives a visit from his doting grandfather (Peter Falk) who intends to read to him from his favorite book, he's not exactly pleased to be extracted from his world of video games. However, his mood quickly changes as he, along with the viewer, is transported to a place out of time--to Florin, a kingdom in the ultimate imaginary land, complete with dashing heroes, cowardly princes, rhyming giants, shrieking eels, rodents of unusual size, fancy swordfights, and yes...even some kissing.<BR>The lovely Buttercup (Robin Wright) learns that "As you wish" really means "I love you" when she falls for her charming farmhand, Westley (Cary Elwes). While trying to seek his fortune, however, Westley disappears at sea, an apparent victim of the Dread Pirate Roberts, who takes no prisoners. A few years later, Buttercup, engaged to the oily Prince Humperdinck (Chris Sarandon), is kidnapped by an oddball trio of rogues--brains, Vizzini (Wallace Shawn); brawn, Fezzik (Andre the Giant); and sword, Inigo Montoya (Mandy Patinkin in a standout performance). As they sail away toward the Cliffs of Insanity, they notice the pursuit of a man in black...and the adventure begins. A clever fairy tale for all ages, THE PRINCESS BRIDE is arguably one of the funniest and most entertaining films of all time.
ReviewsVariety - ...At heart, PRINCESS BRIDE celebrates the power of true love to triumph over adversity..., New York Times - ...Sweetness and sincerity....A delightful cast and a cheery, earnest style that turns out to be ever more disarming...

Priates, vilans, princess, gaint torture and wit and being almost dead
An all star cast, great acting, brilliant writing, with a happy ending. I am reading the book regarding the working on this film. It was nice to get some inside knowledge to the hard work that goes into films. Learning to fence, which there is a very good duel in the film. The humour in it was spot on. Cary as the lead is not only a great actor, but very good looking so is Robin as Buttercup. It was nice to know they all got on well. It starts with a sick child played by Fred Savage and his grandfather comes to read to him. At first his not over keen, but he finds himself wanting to know more. Its about true love and much more. This is a great family film for young and young at heart.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Timeless and well-loved...an all round great film of humour, clever wit, wisdom, emotion, and adventure!
An all round great film of humour, clever wit, wisdom, emotion, and adventure; fast paced and full of deeper messages through metaphor, as any good fairytale should be! I loved this when it was first released, and love it just as much over 20 years later.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
