Our Page To Screen series is opening up the storybook that never gets old–Rob Reiner’s The Princess Bride!
This is the rare film that truly has something for everyone: part fairy tale, part swashbuckling adventure, part romantic comedy, and all heart. Adapted by William Goldman from his own novel, it follows the epic love story of Westley and Buttercup, spun by a grandfather (Peter Falk) reading to his skeptical grandson (Fred Savage). Along the way? Duels, deception, miracle pills, and some of the most quotable dialogue ever put to screen.
Whether it’s your first time or your fiftieth, The Princess Bride is a timeless story of love, laughter, and one very determined man in black.
