Warner Stephanie I remember back when I was younger, going to my grandparents and always watching this same movie over and over again. I never could remember what it was called but it was always the one that I wanted to watch. It was the perfect love story of my childhood. I would watch that old VHS tape again and again and it would never get old. I could recite lines from it. The scary parts were always scary, the exciting parts always exciting, and the jokes always funny. "The Princess Bride" is one of the movies that will be around forever. It starts off with a boy (the Wonder Year's Ben Savage) sick in bed playing a video game, when his grandfather (Peter Faulk) comes in with a present. It's a book.
