Writer's Block: Awesome Openers
Jun. 30th, 2008 10:01 pm[Error: unknown template qotd] In the novel The Princess Bride by S. Morgenstern (aka William Goldman), the opening begins with the most beautiful women in the world. I like this, not because it simply talks about beauty, but how quickly the most beautiful woman in the world changes and for the most honest reasons. It later ties in, because Buttercup, the main character, later rises very quickly through the most beautiful numbers simply because she starts bathe and pay attention to the way she looks. This all was excluded from the film (though the film was still amazing) so it was rather interesting when I heard it for the first time
