The script that I looked at was William Goldman's The Princess Bride (http://www.godamongdirectors.com/scripts/princess.shtml).
I was actually a little surprised at how closely the movie followed the script. Most of the differences I noticed were just small changes in dialogue, possibly unintentionally added by the actors. I was really amused to see that the wedding scene was written exactly the way it was performed:
Mawidge...mawidge is what bwings us togewer today...
So awesome.
I was also really surprised how stupid the dialogue looks on paper. It's amazing what a great group of actors can do.
The Holocaust cloak scene was nice to actually read on paper. Andre the Giant (Fezzik) had an incredibly thick accent, and in the movie it's difficult to understand what he's saying at that particular part. It was nice to read it, so now I will officially be able to quote the movie start to finish!
