Synopsis

The Princess Bride is staged as a book read by grandfather to his ill grandson. Filled with fencing, fighting, torture, death, true love, giants, and pirates, The Princess Bride is a classic love story. Indeed, The Princess Bride offers a tongue-in-cheek fairy tale depicting stable boy-turned-pirate Westley's journey to rescue Buttercup, his true love, away from the evil prince. With the help of some unlikely companions, the star-crossed lovers are reunited.
