Fun Facts: Mark Knopfler, of Dire Straits, wrote the music for The Princess Bride.
Knopfler only agreed to take the job when Reiner agreed to put a reference to Spinal Tap in the film. You can see the hat Reiner wore during filming for Spinal Tap hanging in The Grandson's room.

Fun Facts: Before William Goldman wrote The Princess Bride, he asked his two daughters what he should write about. One said "a princess" and the other said "a bride," and the title was born.
