Rob Reiner wasn’t an international or indie filmmaker, but he sure did make some great films. Like, a lot. We could go back and forth picking favorites all day, but we picked one of those rare movies that everyone likes, The Princess Bride.

You’ve probably seen it (but maybe not on a big-ish screen), but in case you haven’t: a kindly grandpa reads his grandson a book called The Princess Bride, about a farmhand and his beloved, a pirate ship, an evil prince, and an oath of revenge by a swordsman named Inigo Montoya. It’s all great fun—for both the audience and actors, it would seem—and remains one of the most engaging all-ages movies to come out of Hollywood… ever.
