Buttercup and Wesley Reunited at Last: The Missing Scene
It turns out I wasn’t the only little kid who wrote the publisher to mail me the missing reunion scene from William Goldman’s The Princess Bride? It was my first inkling that you could break the fourth wall in print, as well as on the stage.
Goldman, in fact, urges his readers to write in even if they don’t have the least interest in reading the scene because his publishing houses have agreed to pay for the postage costs for sending out the scene, and “I would love to cost those publishing geniuses a few dollars, because, let’s face it, they’re not spending much on advertising my books.”
So has anybody written in?
Only about 400 to 500 a week since the movie opened. Before then, the book generated about 100 letters a week for Urban del Rey, which published the paperback in 1974, and half a dozen letters a week for Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, which published the book in hardcover the year before.
