The Princess Bride ("Sweded" in 5 minutes)

This is a condensed, no budget, 5 minute version of "The Princess Bride" made in the style of the "Sweded" movies in Michel Gondry's "Be Kind, Rewind". This was made for a filmmakingfrenzy.com contest in conjunction with the Alamo Drafthouse

@1000RandomThings Paper towels, actually.

I just wish you'd somehow thrown the Albino and Miracle Max in there.

Otherwise.....great work!!!

@ctdsnark We had to keep it under 5 minutes so it was painstaking deciding what to leave in and what we had to leave out!

Wow, I'm seriously impressed at the acting and production values in this - your actors have really got the original mannerisms down pat! In a couple of shots, they even manage to look like the original actors (such as the poisoned cups scene)! It's a little ironic for a 'swede', but that's some impressive imitation! Glad I found this! :D

Also, I thought the filming was great for a (presumably) non-existent budget parody! Shots like the men on 'horseback' were done really well, lol. :P

@Frostlight Thanks! It was indeed filmed for literally no budget over the course of one day (with another day of pickup shots due to a bad tape).

Its a famous line Andre the Giant says in the original.

[IlluminatedLake]

That was fantastic! I'm impressed with how much this has the feel of the original while parodying it. :)

Dog @ 3:30! Or is it an R.O.U.S.?

[braceyfaceanimegurl]

This was so awesome and funny and great for no budget. I loved the dog as the R.O.U.S :D
