“I’m headed straight for the castle, they wanna make me their queen, and there’s an old man sitting on the throne that’s saying that I probably shouldn’t be so mean” (Halsey). These lyrics from Halsey’s song, Castle, are an exact description of Buttercup’s life. The Princess Bride is a story told from grandfather to his grandchild all about romance and action. Westley is the farmboy on Buttercup’s farm, and he has a crush on the growingly beautiful young girl. Prince Humperdinck, the soon to be inheritor

A good story is full of adventure, danger and heroes. A hero always takes risks to save someone other than themselves. A hero is purpose driven, and overcomes great odds to accomplish what they set out to do. When thinking of a hero in most stories, a knight in shining armor riding a white horse usually comes to mind. In the movie The Princess Bride, Westley is a shy farm boy in love with the beautiful Buttercup. He knows he needs to prove to her he can provide for her, so he sets out to make his

his journey. A major part in a hero's journey is their trip to the underworld, after the trip to the underworld the hero comes back stronger, better, and more mature; Westleys trip to the underworld is very traumatic because Westley actually dies. Inigo and Fezzik hear the scream that came from the Zoo of Death they investigate and they find “Westley (lying) dead by the machine” (Goldman 286) that killed him, but after a trip to Miracle Max he takes the magical pill and Fezzik finds Westley alive

     Westley showed that he made good choices many times. His first good choice was to love Buttercup. He chose a girl that truly loved him in return. He also chose to trust Inigo when he was climbing up the cliff. Westley chose not to kill Fezzik and Inigo.

The Princess Bride isn’t exactly the most manly title for a movie, so when I say that it is one of my favorites, many individuals who have not had the pleasure of viewing it are mistaken in their first impression. In truth it's full of, “Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles…”, the list goes on; manliness shouldn’t be questioned. One of the biggest contributors to this adventurous plot is the young swashbuckler Westley. Westley is a daring young

The Princess Bride is an amazing movie that has many great characters. It is based off of a book that shares the same name. Although there were many main characters, I have chosen to write about the characteristics of the ones that remind me of people that I know. These characters names are Wesley, Vizzini, and Prince Humperdinck. All of these characters could be described as being overly confident, and fairly intelligent. Wesley was a very poor servant to a young woman named Buttercup, and

What's the film’s message I thought the overall message that The Princess Bride portrayed was that true love always finds a way.I say this because know matter what obstacle occurred, Westly and Buttercup eventually found each other again.Some evidence that proves this is when Buttercup told the king that Westly would come for her.Another message that this movie portrayed was to never judge a book by its cover.This message is very implied because all the events that take place are very sporadic and
