The Princess Bride

Fairy tale send-up starring Cary Elwes, Robin Wright and Mandy Patinkin. A grandad starts reading his bedridden grandson the story of The Princess Bride.

Movie rating:
Stars:	Cary Elwes, Mandy Patinkin, Chris Sarandon, Robin Wright Penn, Peter Falk
Director:	Rob Reiner
Year:	1987
Running time:	98 mins
Certificate:	PG

Evil prince Chris Sarandon wants to marry lovely bride Robin Wright - but she has other plans... With Pythonesque shafts of humour and well-known stars beneath mounds of make-up (Billy Crystal and Carol Kane, for example), this is a sweet fairy tale. The playing is great, especially from Sarandon. 'I've got my country's 500th anniversary to arrange,' he complains,'my wife to murder and Guilder (a neighbouring kingdom) to blame for it. I'm swamped.' American heroine Robin Wright's English accent is good, young hero Cary Elwes is handsome and dashing and Peter Falk's storyteller is a fun creation.

This is the best fairy tale adapted for the big screen ever! It has everything for both kids and adults alike. The characters are great and the plot is brilliant. And lets not forget about the score - Marc Knopfler is at is usual best. Oh, and keep an eye out for Mel Smith as the Albino!
