Both the book and the movie have many Crowning Moments of Heartwarming. If such a moment appears in both, it's okay to list it in both folders, since not everyone is familiar with both versions.
Moments From the Book
- When Buttercup's parents watch the Count's procession as it rolls past their farm, her father comments that "Now I can die," because he has seen something so remarkable. Her mother looks at him fondly -- despite their continual quarrelling -- and says, simply, "Don't."
- Most of the narrator's recollections of his father, whom he loved deeply.
- Similarly, Inigo's relationship with his father. He adored old Domingo, and while Domingo was swept up in the creation of the six-fingered sword, Inigo made sure that he ate and slept. It's easy to see why the poor kid was so crushed when his father was murdered.
- There have been five kisses throughout history that everyone agrees deserve full marks for passion, purity, etc. Buttercup and Westley's first kiss left them all behind.
- How Fezzik nurses his drunken friend Inigo back to health.
- The narrator's reconciliation with his son in a section added for a more recent edition of the book.
Moments From the Film
- The final scene.
Grandson: Maybe you could come over and read it to me again tomorrow. |
- Valerie has been ragging on her husband Max about Prince Humperdink's firing him, but when Max says he'll take the job of re-animating Wesley, Valerie's instant and completely sincere reaction is "Yay!"
- If you've ever been read a book as a child, and/or ever told a story to one, this whole movie will be a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming for you.
- The tribute to André Roussimoff is this and a Tear Jerker.
- Princess Bride cast reunion. Nuff said.
- Back to The Princess Bride (film)
