In this enchantingly eccentric fairy tale, the beautiful Princess Buttercup (Robin Wright) and the dashing Westley (Cary Elwes) must overcome staggering odds to find happiness amid six-fingered swordsmen, murderous princes, Sicilians, and rodents of unusual size—but even death is no match for true love. Also starring Mandy Patinkin as Inigo Montoya, along with an ensemble cast including Christopher Guest, Chris Sarandon, Wallace Shawn, André the Giant, Billy Crystal, Carol Kane, and Peter Falk.

"A unqualified success that blends New York wit with timeless storytelling; a risky piece of filmaking that never feels so."
"Cary Elwes, as the dashing hero, has the swordsmanship and the one-liners to deal conclusively with anyone who doesn't believe in fairy-tales."
