THE PRINCESS BRIDE (1987)

"The Princess Bride" is a hilariously entertaining romantic fairytale that centers around the trials and triumphs of the noble farm boy Westley, his love Buttercup, and their friends Inigo and Fezzik. In the typical 'noble knight saves his beloved princess from the evil Prince' fashion, "The Princess Bride" combines the best of deliberate ironic puns and a fantastically elaborated plot scheme to render a truly entertaining tale for child and adult alike.

The cast includes: Robin Wright Penn, Cary Elwes, Chris Sarandon, Mandy Patinkin, and Billy Crystal.

Directed by: Rob Reiner. Written by: William Goldman (novel and screenplay).
