In As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales From The Making Of The Princess Bride, actor Cary Elwes, who portrays Westley in the film, takes us behind the scenes to deliver a tale that is every bit as fun and heartwarming as The Princess Bride itself. The film celebrated its 25th Anniversary in 2012 and it’s as popular as ever, which makes it a perfect time for a behind-the-scenes memoir. Although it met with critical acclaim upon its release in 1987, a confused marketing campaign ensured that it didn’t find its audience until later on home video. The Princess Bride is one of those rare films that is almost universally beloved by its audience and has ingrained itself in popular culture to the point where even shows like Supernatural manage to get an Inigo Montoya reference in on occasion.
