  • Overall:

    beautiful soundtrack for a beautiful mov

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 7, 2001

    This movie is a classic, and the soundtrack follows well in its footsteps. The romantic theme, 'Storybook Love,' is woven throughout, and the soundtrack contains the background music for such memorable scenes as 'The Cliffs of Insanity,' 'The Sword F...ight,' and 'Revenge.' Only a story this romantic could have such a beautiful soundtrack! Read more Less

    This movie is a must see as it so deeply moving and romantic. However, i was totally overwhelmed by the book--Princess Bride-- it left me wishing for the first time for such fantasy to be real!! I would highly recommend it to all who once in a while... let their imagination wander off to lands of creativity :) ENJOY IT!! Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Princess Bride

  • All Music Guide

    Mark Knopfler's original music for The Princess Bride utilizes dreamy washes of synthesizers overlayed with warm acoustic instruments and hints of percussion. It's a great formula, often drifting through a gauze befitting a film that plays like a fairy tale. At the same time, songs like "Cliffs of Insanity" and "The Fireswamp and the Rodents of Unusual Size" cleverly acknowledge the movie's quirky humor even as they advance the plot with urgent notes or shimmering synth trills. "The Friends' Song"'s gently plucked acoustic guitar and whistle suggests the bardic tradition, while the main theme "Once Upon a Time...Storybook Love" is as romantic and pastoral as the film itself.
