Ayyyy! Puzzle corner
By Spirit FingersThis week’s puzzle corner is dedicated to anyone who’s ever wanted to be whisked away in a horse-drawn carriage by their Prince Charming to a five-star castle with all the mod-cons, where you would both live happily ever after, doing meaningful charity work and each other on a regular basis.
Now that we’re done with daydreaming, we invite you to straighten up your tiara and identify the movie princesses below. Who are these noblewomen who have lit up the screens with their radiant and fair presence?
Answers will be put up on Wednesday morning. In the meantime I will be twirling about in my pretty cape and enticing those simple woodland creatures to do my bidding.

I’m not very good at this game but can’t resist chipping in on the two I recognize immediately and thus reveal my eternal geekiness:
1) Princess Buttercup! (The Princess Bride)
5) Princess Leia (The first and forever best Star Wars, Episode IV).

P.S. Number 4) is, i think, Anne Hathaway from the Princess Diaries, though not sure since I’ve never actually seen the movie. That smiley face in the first post was supposed to be a number 8.

5. Princess Leia Organa (Carrie Fischer) in Star Wars (and I’m bad because I’m not sure which one… Return of the Jedi?)

10. Again, don’t know… looks South Asian? Costume is intriguing.
