	DVD Review - The Princess Bride (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Young princess Buttercup (Robin Wright) and stable mate Westley (Cary Elwes) fall in love, and in order to live up to the royal standards, Westley decides to leave home and seek his fortune to return one day to marry Buttercup.
		His 1987 film "The Princess Bride" is no different in that and creates vignettes that are memorable and exceedingly funny.
		The presentation has also been carefully compressed, and as a result even fine details make it into the presentation without distortion or artifacting, giving the image a very detailed look that is free of pixelation or other compression artifacts.

	Review: Princess Bride, The (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Best of all, despite its satirical bent, The Princess Bride can still be enjoyed on the simpler level of the story of a princess being rescued by her one true love.
		The Princess Bride is constructed as a story-within-a-story, with the framing scenes occurring in the "real world" as a grandfather (Peter Falk) stops by to read a story to his sick grandson (Fred Savage).
		For director Rob Reiner, The Princess Bride represented the fourth of seven consecutive commercial and critical successes (a streak that began with 1984's This Is Spinal Tap and ended with 1992's A Few Good Men).

		And so it came to pass that the young and the young-at-heart alike were granted their wish: a movie for the whole family.
		The old-timer reads aloud to him from the book "The Princess Bride." The boy, who prefers computer games, is less than thrilled.
		The characters are classics, played to a fare-thee-well by an eclectic, entirely credible cast led by Robin Wright of the sudsy "Santa Barbara." Wright has the title role, her first in film, as a heroine as dense as a Disney ingénue but as impishly up-to-date as Di.

	William Goldman, The Princess Bride (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		To begin with, Goldman's masterpiece is not simply The Princess Bride.
		Princess Buttercup lives in Florin, a mythical country (from which the equally mythic S. Morgenstern and Goldman's family supposedly hail) located in some obscure part of Europe next to the equally obscure country of Guilder.
		At the beginning of the tale, Buttercup is one of the 20 most beautiful women in the world, and after her true love, Westley, is apparently lost at sea to the Dread Pirate Roberts, she quickly rises up the ranks to become the Most Beautiful in all the world.

	The Princess Bride (1987)
		A fantastical escape into a world of swashbuckling swordsmen and gallant heroes, The Princess Bride is extraordinary entertainment for the whole family.
		Wright seems drab and lifeless as Princess Buttercup; she's a decently-attractive woman (though I admit she doesn't do a lot for me) but her acting lacked any spirit.
		The Princess Bride appears in both its original theatrical aspect ratio of approximately 1.85:1 and in a fullscreen edition on this double-sided, single-layered DVD; the letterboxed image has not been enhanced for 16X9 televisions.

	ReadingGroupGuides.com - The Princess Bride by William Goldman (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Eventually to be adapted for the silver screen, The Princess Bride was originally a beautifully simple, insightfully comic story of what happens when the most beautiful girl in the world marries the handsomest prince in the world--and he turnsout to be a son of a bitch.
		William Goldman states that he is adapting The Princess Bride from a novel written by the great Florinese writer, S. Morgenstern.
		The Princess Bride can be thought of as two intertwining tales, one focusing on Westley and Buttercup, the other on the life of Goldman himself (or the fictional Goldman, at any rate).

	The SF Site Featured Review: The Princess Bride, 25th Anniversary Edition
		So, as with the best fairy tales, The Princess Bride works on a number of levels as a satisfying read for, as the saying goes, kids of all ages.
		She also shared many of the same reactions attributed to the young Goldman as his own father read to him, in particular a spot when a main character dies (but, this being a fairy tale, it's an obstacle that has a work-around).
		Playing the role of the omniscient, know-it-all editor that many writers are plagued by, Goldman gets the urge to insert a reconciliation scene of his creation between Buttercup, the Princess Bride, and Westley, her lost love, to improve Morgenstern's narrative.

	‘The Princess Bride’ (PG)
		Except this story, "The Princess Bride," gets the kid (Fred Savage) interested -- thanks to the movies, ironically enough, and screenwriter William Goldman, who adapted this witty script from his book.
		Goldman's tale is of young, blond (natch) lovers Westley (Cary Elwes) and Buttercup (Robin Wright), who must go through a fantasy fandango (a fiery swamp full of oversized rodents, The Pit of Despair and so on) to get back together.
		There are others, including Peter Falk as the storytelling grandfather (in a charming Columbo-meets-Burl-Ives role), Peter Cook as a priest with a severe speech impediment and Carol Kane as Billy Crystal's nagging, latexed wife.

	Amazon.com: The Princess Bride (1987) : Video (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Combining dead-on perfect casting, superb direction, an impeccable comedic script and sumptuous visuals, The Princess Bride is a marvellous piece of cinematic storytelling that, thanks to its brilliant combination of childlike wonder and adult sarcasm (that in itself being a great feat), is accessible to viewers of all ages.
		And The Princess Bride sports two great movie villains in Chris Sarandon's Prince Humperdinck and Christopher Guest's Count Rugen, both evil to the core but so charismatically played by the actors that they come off as truly worthy opponents to the chivalric Westley and Inigo.
		William Goldman's book "The Princess Bride", on which this film is based, intended to tell only the 'good parts' version of the story of Westley and Buttercup.

	The Princess Bride (1987)
		It's a story of fencing, fighting, pirates, revenge, a princess, and true love - it's The Princess Bride, by S Morgenstern.
		While waiting for the one to catch his breath, the other tells a story from his past, and hands his sword over to the first for inspection; rather than skewering him with it, the first examines it, comments on its superior quality, and hands it back...
		The book The Princess Bride, by William Goldman (who wrote scripts like Marathon Man), is quite strange - it purports to be an abridgement of a political satire of the same name, by S Morgenstern, with all the boring political satire removed, and commentary by Goldman inserted.

		And Goldman's storytelling credentials are hard to beat -- he penned the screenplays for Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, All The President's Men, Marathon Man, and, of course, The Princess Bride.

	Barnes & Noble.com - The Princess Bride -- Rob Reiner - DVD - Wide Screen / Dolby 5.1
		Once upon a time, as this particular yarn goes, there was a beautiful princess named Buttercup (Robin Wright) who was being held against her will by the evil Prince Humperdinck (Chris Sarandon) and his dastardly henchmen.
		Luckily, her childhood sweetheart, now the Dread Pirate Roberts (Cary Elwes), and his newfound friend, the dashing swordsman Inigo Montoya (Mandy Patinkin), come to the fair maiden's rescue.
		Indeed, The Princess Bride offers a tongue-in-cheek fairy tale depicting stable boy-turned-pirate Westley's journey to rescue Buttercup (Robin Wright), his true love, away from the evil prince (Chris Sarandon), whom she had agreed to marry five years after learning of what she had believed to be news of Westley's death.
