In the oral class that day, John showed us a section of "The Princess and Bride". He said it was a movie he liked very much, and he had watched it many times. I actually can't understand why a man likes watching this type of movie. So I finished reading it tonight.

It is nothing more than a very traditional love story. The two have been childhood sweethearts since childhood and liked each other, but the boy wanted to give each other a better life, so he went on a long voyage. As a result, there was no news. The girl thought he had met a pirate and died. Five years later, the girl was forced to marry the prince. One day she was kidnapped by several pirates while riding a horse. The boy at the time appeared to rescue her, and the two met again. Later, the prince kidnapped the princess, and the boy took the pirate friend to rescue the princess. In the end, the two people lived happily together.

What touched me most about this movie was the story of a pirate named Enig Montoya. He wanted to avenge his father. A guy with six fingers killed his father. So when he finally saw the six-fingered man in the palace, even though he had been stabbed by the sword, he stood up and killed the enemy.

This movie uses a different technique. This movie is actually a story told by grandpa to his grandson. So from the perspective of a child, another interpretation of the film was made.

The whole movie, you call it a fairy tale, but it also has a trace of politics and exposure to humanity. The prince kidnapped the princess in order to marry the princess. After the hero brought his pirate friends into the palace, the cowardice and withdrawal of the officers and ministers was also ridiculous. The pirate has never been cruel to the princess and helped the hero who was still an enemy to climb up the cliff. When the male protagonist and the pirate are drinking, the feeling of psychological game is also very exciting.

One thing I admire is that there was a scene where the male and female protagonist fell into the sand and mud together. When they climbed out, their faces were covered with sand. I could even clearly see that the male protagonist’s nostrils were also filled with sand... ..

Attach the photos of the male protagonist before and now

As well as the hero's As you wish is really sultry, but he and a few pirates have contracted most of the laughs...

Although it is always boring, it is easy to be moved by the love stories in fairy tales?

    This story is so inspiring. Hollywood today cannot write such a simple and beautiful script.

    Ah, true love, a swordsman who practices swordsmanship to avenge his father can't stop it, a giant with a hand as big as a fan can't stop it, a short bald man who plays tricks and nonsense can't stop it, even the palace wall guarded by sixty people can't stop it. No, the prince's snatch will get nothing sooner or later, and the hero of the story, he will defeat the pump, defeat the limp body, and kiss the beautiful owner, Tianya.

The Princess Bride quotes

  • [first lines]

    The Mother: Hi, honey.

    The Grandson: Hi, Mom.

  • Westley: Where am I?

    The Albino: [raspy voice] The Pit of Despair! Don't even think...

    [clears throat]

    The Albino: ... don't even think about trying to escape. The chains are far too thick. Don't dream of being rescued, either; the only way in is secret. Only the Prince, the Count, and I know how to get in and out.

    Westley: So I'm here till I die?

    The Albino: Until they kill you, yeah.

    Westley: Then why bother curing me?

    The Albino: Well, the Prince and Count always insist on everyone being healthy before they're broken.

    Westley: So it's to be torture?

    The Albino: [nods enthusiastically]

    Westley: I can cope with torture.

    The Albino: [shakes head enthusiastically]

    Westley: Don't believe me?

    The Albino: You survived the Fire Swamp, so you must be very brave, but no one withstands The Machine.
