My favorite. It’s so good. I've had this fascination with screen writing, even though I haven’t pulled the trigger on anything but the screenplay that did it was The Princess Bride.

Years ago on a miserably rainy day in Manhattan, my wife, Rita, and I planned out a perfect quartet of films to take in, all playing at theaters within walking distance. We started at 10:30 a.m. with Hello Again and ended 12 hours later with The Princess Bride.

Princess Bride is obviously a given; everyone loves that and can quote it. [Laughs] I’ve seen that many times as a child and it swept me away every time. I loved it.

William Goldman's 1973 novel was a delight, and Rob Reiner's 1987 film version brought it masterfully to the screen. With Goldman handling the adaptation himself, the movie managed to capture all of the book's charm and wit--no easy task. The casting was perfect in this one.

The Princess Bride: Sly, irreverent, witty, tongue-in-cheek but managing romance and adventure at the same time, Reiner’s take on Goldman’s brilliance has produced a classic one-of-a-kind fantasy.
