Movie Description
Director 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.


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 (André 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.

THE PRINCESS BRIDE was screened at the 1987 Toronto Festival of Festivals and London Film Festival.

Shot at Lee International Studios in Shepperton, England, and in Ireland. Filming began August 1986, and was completed December 1986.

Estimated budget: $16 million.

Author William Goldman also wrote the screenplay for THE PRINCESS BRIDE.

The film features early starring roles for Cary Elwes and Robin Wright.

Wright later married actor-director Sean Penn, changing her name to Robin Wright Penn.

Christopher Guest (Count Rugen) plays Nignel Tufnel in director Rob Reiner's THIS IS SPINAL TAP.

The hat of Marty DiBergi (Reiner) from THIS IS SPINAL TAP appears on the boy's (Fred Savage) bedpost.

THE PRINCESS BRIDE features the first (and only) sizeable film role for professional wrestler André the Giant. It's his only major appearance playing a character other than himself.

Mark Knopfler of the Dire Straits composed the music for the film.

Editorial Reviews
"...At heart, PRINCESS BRIDE celebrates the power of true love to triumph over adversity..."
Variety - Jagr. (09/16/1987)

"...THE PRINCESS BRIDE is a fun, sad, scary, witty fairy tale featuring the greatest performance ever given by a professional wrestler, the late Andre the Giant..."
Entertainment Weekly - Marc Bernardin (09/14/2001)

"Reiner's beautifully crafted fairytale pastiche still represents one of the high points of US comedy in the 1980s..."
Sight and Sound - Danny Leigh (02/01/2001)

"...Rob Reiner's uncategorisable blend of action, romance, spoof, swashbuckler and fairytale is purely and simply a corking movie..."
Total Film - Ceri Thomas (05/01/2000)

"...Sweetness and sincerity....A delightful cast and a cheery, earnest style that turns out to be ever more disarming..."
New York Times - p.C10 - Janet Maslin

5 stars out of 5 -- "It was influential...the current crop of fractured fairy tales clearly owe a great debt to its groundbreaking balancing act of melodramatic pastiche, light-hearted send-up and the simple delights of a good yarn well told."
Total Film - Neil Smith (11/01/2008)

5 stars out of 5 -- "More swashbuckling than Errol Flynn, more romantic than Casablanca, funnier than virtually everything, THE PRINCESS BRIDE is -- like MARY POPPINS -- practically perfect in every way."
Empire - Helen O'Hara (12/01/2008)

    This is actually my husbands favorite movie but I enjoy it greatly also. You have a boy whos grandfather is reading him a story. The movie cuts back and forth a couple times from them to the story being played out. The story is about a man who loves a girl but then he dissappears. The story includes everything from a giant, a sword fighter, pirate, romance, action, magic, and so much more! There are lines that will stay in your head for a long time after seeing the movie and if you think that is INCONCEIVABLE!! Then you haven't seen this movie :). A must see!!

    The Princess Bride is one of the most clever, humorous and touching testimonies to true love ever produced. So why are all the reviews so general and non-descriptive? Methinks ebayers are rushing to pile up mass reviews to achieve top reviewer status. The frame of this movie is a grandfather (Peter Falk) reading a fairy tale to his sick grandchild (Fred Savage). The story line is about true love between a peasant boy (Cary Elwes) and a princess (Robin Wright) and the team of misfits who help reunite the lovers who have been separated by an evil prince (Chris Sarandon) and his sadistic henchman (Christopher Guest). Skits include Wallace Shawn as the wonderfully plotting Vizzini (inconceivable!), the truly dense (mentally and physically) Andre The Giant as Fezzik, Mandy Patinkin as Inigo Montoya (a Spaniard seeking to avenge the death of his father at the hands of the 6-fingered man) and a classic bit by Billy Crystal as Miracle Max together with his wife played by the hysterical Carol Kane. As they journey through the Fire Swamp, the Pit of Despair and into the evil Humperdinck's castle all comes down to whether true love can overcome even death. Wonderful, wonderful for adults and kids of all ages.
