![]() ![]() The film alone is such a huge cultural influence that even without having seen it or read the book I knew some things about it. It was impossible for me to start reading The Princess Bride without some preconceptions. Foiling all their plans and jumping into their stories is Westley, Princess Buttercup’s one true love and a very good friend of a very dangerous pirate. In the course of this dazzling adventure, she’ll meet Vizzini-the criminal philosopher who’ll do anything for a bag of gold Fezzik-the gentle giant Inigo-the Spaniard whose steel thirsts for revenge and Count Rugen-the evil mastermind behind it all. ![]() ![]() As Florin and Guilder teeter on the verge of war, the reluctant Princess Buttercup is devastated by the loss of her true love, kidnapped by a mercenary and his henchmen, rescued by a pirate, forced to marry Prince Humperdinck, and rescued once again by the very crew who absconded with her in the first place. ![]()
