Product Description
From Amazon.com
Laced with almost metaphysically challenging guitar work and laden with rich, full-orchestral arrangements, The Princess Bride soundtrack qualifies as one of Mark Knopfler's cinematic triumphs. Romantically lyrical melodies like "I Will Never Love Again" contrast brightly with fun frolics like "The Friends' Song" and edgy mood pieces like "The Cliffs of Insanity." While most soundtracks are really just compilations of hits or variations on a single theme, Knopfler's play more like symphonies, each movement as fulfilling as the last. Though The Princess Bride doesn't quite carry off the emotional impact of Local Hero or Cal, it does offer up some terrific music and one good love song, Willy Deville's "Storybook Love." --L.A. Smith

the film is probably the one of the only films about love that is worth watching and i would recommend it to anybody.
the music is wonderful, gentle and really does make you think about love.
the use of strings is exceedingly clever and the constant tunes which come back throughout the film and finish as a song really make this CD one of the best purchases i've made.

Three good tracks, patchy pieces for the rest of the CD make this a disappointing Knopfler album. Of course, the soundtrack has to "go with" the film, causing the most of this album to be rather boring. Two variations of the main P.B. theme are good. If like me, you want as much Knopfler music you can get your hands on, then buy it.
Format:Audio CD
Para el que sea fan de Knopfler no hay duda que debería comprarlo. Si ya tienes el Screenplaying, no te lo aconsejo a no ser que quieras completar tu colección (como es mi caso).
