Princess Bride (PG)

Dir. Rob Reiner

1987 | 98 mins | USA

Join us for an evening of swashbuckling with an 80’s classic! The Princess Bride, back on the big screen!

A film that has charmed legions of fans with its irreverent gags, eccentric ensemble, and dazzling swordplay. Be prepared for dashing heroes, terrible villains, pirates, giants and rodents of unusual size.

A fairy tale adventure about a beautiful young woman and her one true love. He must find her after a long separation and save her no matter the cost! They must battle the evils of the mythical kingdom of Florin to be reunited with each other. Based on the William Goldman novel "The Princess Bride".

The Princess Bride is a deft, intelligent mix of swashbuckling, romance, and comedy that takes an age-old damsel-in-distress story and makes it fresh!
