'The Princess Bride' is a 1987 American film based on the 1973 novel of the same name by William Goldman, combining comedy, adventure, romance, and fantasy. The film was directed by Rob Reiner from a screenplay by Goldman. The story is presented in the film as a book being read by a grandfather (Peter Falk) to his sick grandson (Fred Savage), thus effectively preserving the novel's narrative style. This film is number 50 on Bravo's "100 Funniest Movies," number 88 on The American Film Institute's (AFI) "AFI's 100 Years... 100 Passions" listing the 100 greatest film love stories of all time, and 46 in 50 Greatest Comedy Films.

The Princess Bride (film) Video

Probably the best DVD extra from Rob Reiners The Princess Bride featuring interviews with Mandy Patinkin, Cary Elwes and Christopher Guest about learning to swordfight for the film. Both funny and, at times, touching.

I was going for the aim of causing a "contented sigh" when you get done watching this montage. Let me know if I succeeded. This one is for Lisa, my dearest friend in the whole world, who I introduced to period drama and who now loves them as much as I do. Thank you for being the kind of friend who understands the need to have all day period film marathons and who, while watching them, releases a contented sigh at all the same times that I do. You are my kindred spirit above all kindred spirits. Here's to all happy endings and triumphant love.
