September 19th is International Talk Like a Pirate Day - the only holiday that encourages people to babble like buccaneers for the sheer, anarchic fun of it. It’s been celebrated by millions of people on all seven continents and even on the International Space Station!  The theatre will be screening the best pirate film ever so let’s celebrate with the Dred Pirate Roberts, practice our pirate jargon, and don your dashing pirate garb. ARRRRG!

About The Princess Bride:

While home sick in bed, a young boy's grandfather reads him the story of a farmboy-turned-pirate who encounters numerous obstacles, enemies and allies in his quest to be reunited with his true love. This Rob Reiner classic delivers a charmingly quirky and hilarious film that regularly appears on “best of” lists ever since the film first screened in 1987.

The Princess Bride stars Cary Elwes, Robin Wright, Mandy Patinkin, Chris Sarandon, Wallace Shawn, André the Giant, and Christopher Guest. Adapted by William Goldman from his 1973 novel The Princess Bride, it tells the story of a farmhand named Westley, accompanied by companions befriended along the way, who must rescue his true love Princess Buttercup from the odious Prince Humperdinck. The film essentially preserves the novel's narrative style by presenting the story as a book being read by a grandfather (Peter Falk) to his sick grandson (Fred Savage).
