The spaniards attempt to find the man that killed his father. It was like an addition to the plot of the movie/ story. In other words, a story inside a story. Storyception kinda.

A list of antagonists in The Princess Bride could include:

  • Prince Humperdinck, who conspires to kill Buttercup and blame her death on Guilder in order to start a war
  • Count Rugen, the Prince's loyal assistant, who not only slaughters Inigo's father but later tortures Westley
  • The R.O.U.S. ("Rodents Of Unusual Size"), who attack Westley and Buttercup in the fire swamp
  • Vizzini, a Sicilian who leads a small trio of criminals. He is hired to kidnap and kill Buttercup.
  • Inigo Montoya and Fezzik, Vizzini's partners in crime. Although they aren't really villians and are actually the heroes of the story, they start out as bad. Not sure if they should really be counted or not.
  • Yellin, Humperdinck's "Chief Of All Enforcement" and the overseer of the Brute Squad.

How did the princess and stable boy fall in love in Princess Bride?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It depends if you are talking about the movie or the novel.

In both it implies that Westley (the stable boy/farm hand) has always been in love with Buttercup, hence he always says 'as you wish' to her. In the movie she simply realised that they love each other. This part in the film is quite condensed, the beginning of their romance is much better illustrated in the novel.

In the novel, Buttercup becomes insanely jealous of the female attention Westley gets from the dutchess, who comes to visit the farm, she consequently confesses her love to Westley and he too, confesses his affections towards her.

Which is better The Princess Bride book or The Princess Bride movie?

User Avatar

Asked by Mcostello1011

Read the book. Then watch the movie.

The movie is WAY better!

Both the book and the movie have its own charm. The book has the irony in all the remarks by Goodman who claims to be abridging a real novel. (He is the true author) A lot of quotes from the book are in the movie, but the movie is not word for word. The movie and book are both well done, and it would not hurt to read the book and watch the movie.
