The Princess Bride
A fairytale as told to a bedridden boy: the willowy Buttercup (Wright), destined as consort to the heinous Prince...
The Princess Bride
The contradictory notion that a film can allurement to children of all ages accidentally yielded a work of art - The Wizard of Oz. The Princess Bride, a commonplace fairytale movie slackly adapted past Goldman from his own novel, was no such thing. The act is undercut by adult knowingness that nudges close to satire, and the result is very much a curate's egg. The story is told to a sickly 10-year-dusty and emerges as a same exaggeration of adventure unlikely to entreaty to kids any more than the central romance, since the leads are pretty but wimpish. A flick picture show more fun to make than watch, a characteristic of all films by the Reiners, father and son.
