As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride by Cary Elwes

5.0

I did not think I would like this book, it had been years since I had last saw "The Princess Bride" and while I liked the movie, it was never ranked as a favorite.

Cary Elwes's writing style and joyful insight into the making of the movie; however, was both amusing and addicting to read, I could not put the book down. I found myself watching clips of the scenes he discussed the making of, until I broke down and just rewatched the movie, after having read the book. I loved it, the subtle insight into the various scenes, characters, and actors gave me a newfound respect for the movie.

A must read for any fans of the movie or fantasy movies in general.
