Princess Bride

Sep 25, 1987
Que peut bien faire un petit garçon cloué au lit par la grippe, condamné à écouter les conseils des grands et même de subir un grand-père rabat-joie, au lieu d'aller faire les quatre cents coups avec ses copains ? Et voilà en plus que le papy se met en tête de lire à haute voix un conte de fée aux antipodes de Superman et de Rambo ! Au Moyen-Age, dans le pays imaginaire de Florin, la belle Bouton d'Or se languit après le départ de son bien-aimé Westley, parti chercher fortune et qu'elle croit mort. Cinq ans plus tard, elle accepte d'épouser le prince Humperdinck pour qui elle n'éprouve aucun amour. Mais peu avant son mariage, elle est enlevée par trois bandits et entraînée dans une aventure mouvementée au cours de laquelle elle retrouvera sa raison de vivre...

Produced and presented by Derek Pykett. It is clearly an amateur production, and somebody needs to teach him how to conduct interviews without constantly giggling in the background, but we should be grateful for his enthusiasm. It is doubtful anyone else would have gone to so much trouble. He reunites Walker and Langley with Julie Peasgood, one of the film's younger stars, at the original location, actually Rotherfield park in Hampshire. He has also secured interviews with several other of the movie's participants from both in front of and behind the camera, the most surprising of all being a fascinating chat with Desi Arnaz. Jr himself. He has fond memories of the film, particularly working with such a terrific cast.

Founded in the early 1960s by Americans Milton Subotsky and Max J. Rosenberg, Amicus produced some classic (now cult) horror movies, including Dr. Terror's House Of Horrors, The House That Dripped Blood, Tales From The Crypt, Asylum and From Beyond The Grave. Featuring interviews with key individuals who worked for Amicus (actors, directors, etc.), and with many rare photographs and production designs throughout, this documentary is a must-see for fans of British horror cinema.
