Despite its extremely unpromising name, The Princess Bride features funny dialog, compelling action, an engaging story, and Andre the Giant. Plus, it’s one of those rare movies that sort of, kind of qualifies as a rom-com without being absolutely terrible (i.e., you can watch it with your girlfriend and you’ll both be happy). The point is, The Princess Bride is 27 years old, and this is what we learned from it.
