The Hero's Journey in The Princess Bride

The Princess Bride is the greatest movie of all time. The Hero's Journey is the greatest story structure of all time. So both must go together...right?

In this video essay, I analyze how writer William Goldman used the Hero's journey in a way most people don't expect, and the reason why The Princess Bride is such a satisfying film.

Clips included in this video:
