Viewing Notes

One of the many classic movies I missed growing up, I didn’t see THE PRINCESS BRIDE until about five years ago. If I’d watched it as a kid I’d love it. As an adult, however, I’m charmed by it and find it amusing. I love how they use old school soundstages and reminds me of an old Errol Flynn swashbuckler.
