Synopsis

Her heart was a secret garden and the walls were very high.

Beautiful, flaxen-haired Buttercup has fallen for Westley, the farm boy.

Filled with ambition Westley departs to make his fortune and be worthy of her love. But when Buttercup hears that his ship has been captured by the Dread Pirate Roberts - who never leaves survivors - she vows never to love another.

Buttercup's charms draw the attention of the malevolent Prince Humperdinck who will go to any lengths to make her his princess bride. But all is not lost! There is a rescue afoot by a mysterious man in black…
An iconic adventure filled with sword fights and giants, evil princes and pirates, revenge and ridiculousness, all wrapped in a dazzling satire of classic fairy tales.

The Princess Bride is not just a story you’ll want to read – it’s one you’ll want to live.
