About
As of 2026, it's 39 years old.
The Princess Bride is a fairy tale that's secretly a comedy that's secretly one of the most quotable movies ever made. Framed as a grandfather reading a story to a sick kid, it juggles sword fights, giants, R.O.U.S.es, and true love with a wink, somehow being sincere and hilarious at the exact same time.
'Inconceivable!', 'As you wish,' and 'Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya' are practically a second language for its fans.
Witty, romantic, and endlessly quotable, The Princess Bride is the rare movie that's both a genuine fairy tale and a loving send-up of one.
