The Film Vaults #11 - The Princess Bride (1987)

We head back to the 80s for this week's pick in "The Film Vaults" for a true classic, The Princess Bride...
Based on the legendary novel by William Goldman, The Princess Bride is a film that covers a vast array of film genres including Comedy, Fantasty, Action, Adventure and Romance - ultimately its a bit like Shrek, but its live action and much much better...
A film that the entire family can enjoy and really shouldn't need to be recommended - you should have already seen it - but for all you heathens out there, I'm going to recommend it anyway...
Directed by Rob Reiner and featuring an all-star cast, with Cary Elwes as Wesley, Mandy Patinkin as Inigo Montoya, Chris Sarandon as Prince Humperdinck, Christopher Guest as Count Rugen, Wallace Shawn as Vizzini, Andre the Giant as Fezzik, Robin Wright as Buttercup, Fred Savage as the Grandson, and Peter Falk as The Grandfather...
So go watch it... Don't make me have to tell you again... Why are you still here?
"Anybody wanna Peanut?"
