“The battle of wits has begun” – Princess Bride Wine! Scott Caldwell, February 2, 2012February 2, 2012 If there is one thing I love, it’s a good gla….fine, BOTTLE, of wine.

Keep reading for the details. Visited by movie lovers from around the world, the Alamo Drafthouse is known for its big events, and now they are going one step further by adding a great addition such as the nostalgic and loved movie, The Princess Bride. “THE PRINCESS BRIDE QUOTE-ALONG & FEAST” as it is so aptly named by being one of the most recognized films by it’s quotes alone, will feature a full womantic……sorry, romantic menu, along with bottles of As You Wish White and Inconceivable Red. This event will take place on Valentine’s Day (February 14th if you weren’t aware) in various Drafthouse locations as well as a couple days after in others.
