William Goldman. The Princess Bride. Screenplay by William Goldman from his Novel. No place: Act III Communications Inc., May 3, 1986. "Revised Final Draft." Large octavo. [1, title], 122 pages; rectos only. Stiff mottled papers backed in black, secured with metal clip. Very minor edgewear, internally clean and tight. Housed in a buttercup yellow leather clamshell case; spine sunned, upper joint starting, somewhat rubbed and worn. Near fine.

A beautiful copy of the final draft screenplay for the beloved fantasy adventure film, The Princess Bride (1987). The film was co-produced and directed by Rob Reiner and starred Cary Elwes and Robin Wright alongside an all-star cast. The film opened to acclaim from the critics, but surprisingly, only modest box office success. However, in the years since, it has quickly become a cult classic, so much so that many of the quotes are now a part of our everyday lives. The film was selected in 2016 for preservation by the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress and continues to inspire creative spin-offs, shadow casts, live readings, and declarations of true love to this day. Property from the Estate of William Goldman, New York City. This lot comes with a certificate of authenticity signed by Mr. Goldman’s daughter, Ms. Jenny Goldman.
