This was my first audiobook experience, and I absolutely loved it. Many of the real people involved in The Princess Bride read their own vignettes, such as director Rob Reiner and producer Andy Scheinnman. Major players like Robin Wright and Billy Crystal make a few appearances as well. There are many different voices, but someone always introduced them, making it easy to tell who was talking. Cary Elwes remains charismatic yet seemingly humble, despite his worldwide fame. It’s clear that everyone involved in the film has great affection for it. I think it’s one of the situations where everything came together at the right time, and hit exactly the right notes. A wonderful experience on audiobook, probably even better than reading the book. I think its about 6 hours, and it was perfect while taking walks, getting ready for bed, doing housework, etc. Highly recommended.
