The film was first released in the United States on September 25 , 1987 , was well - received by critics at the time , but was a modest box office success .

A beautiful young woman named Buttercup lives on a farm in the fictional country of Florin . Whenever she orders the farmhand Westley to do chores for her , he complies and answers , `` As you wish '' . She eventually realizes he loves her and admits her love for him . He leaves to seek his fortune so they can marry , but his ship is attacked by the Dread Pirate Roberts and Westley is believed dead . Five years later , Buttercup reluctantly agrees to marry Prince Humperdinck , heir to the throne of Florin . Before the wedding , she is kidnapped by three outlaws : a short Sicilian boss named Vizzini , a gigantic wrestler from Greenland named Fezzik , and a Spanish fencing master named Inigo Montoya , who seeks revenge against a six - fingered man who killed his father . The outlaws are pursued separately by a masked man in black and Prince Humperdinck with a complement of soldiers . The man in black catches up to the outlaws at the top of the Cliffs of Insanity . He defeats Inigo in a duel and knocks him unconscious , chokes Fezzik until he blacks out , and kills Vizzini by tricking him into drinking poison . He takes Buttercup prisoner and they flee , stopping to rest at the edge of a gorge . When Buttercup correctly guesses that he is the Dread Pirate Roberts , she becomes enraged at him for killing Westley ; distracted when Humperdinck and his men appear in the distance , she shoves him down the hill into the gorge and wishes death upon him . As he tumbles down , he shouts , `` As you wish ! '' Realizing he is Westley , she throws herself into the gorge after him and they are reunited . They pass through the dangerous Fire Swamp but are captured on the other side by Humperdinck and his sadistic six - fingered vizier Count Rugen . Buttercup agrees to return with Humperdinck in exchange for Westley 's release , but Humperdinck secretly orders Rugen to lock Westley in a forest torture chamber . When Buttercup expresses unhappiness at marrying Humperdinck , he promises to search for Westley ; however , his real plan is to start a war with the neighboring country of Guilder by killing Buttercup and framing Guilder for her death . Meanwhile , Inigo and Fezzik reunite when Humperdinck orders the thieves in the nearby forest arrested , and Fezzik tells Inigo about Rugen . Inigo decides that they need Westley 's help to get into the castle . Buttercup taunts Humperdinck after learning that he never tried to find Westley ; enraged , Humperdinck tortures Westley to death . When Inigo hears cries of anguish echo through the forest , he realizes they must be from Westley . Inigo and Fezzik find the dead Westley and bring him to a folk healer , Miracle Max ; he tells them that Westley is `` only mostly dead '' due to his love for Buttercup , and Max revives him to a state of heavy paralysis . After Westley , Inigo , and Fezzik invade the castle , Humperdinck panics and orders the wedding ceremony shortened . Inigo finds and kills Rugen in a duel , repeatedly taunting him with his greeting of vengeance : `` Hello , my name is Inigo Montoya . You killed my father . Prepare to die . '' Westley finds Buttercup , who is about to commit suicide , assuring her that the marriage is invalid because she never said `` I do . '' Still partly paralyzed , he bluffs his way out of a duel with Humperdinck . Westley rides away with Buttercup , Inigo , and Fezzik before sharing a passionate kiss with Buttercup . Back in the boy 's bedroom , the boy eagerly asks his grandfather to read the story to him again the next day , to which the grandfather replies , `` As you wish '' . Cast ( edit ) Framing story ( edit ) Peter Falk as Grandpa / The Narrator Fred Savage as The Grandson Betsy Brantley as The Mother Main story ( edit ) Cary Elwes as Westley / Dread Pirate Roberts / The Man in Black Robin Wright as Buttercup / The Princess Bride Chris Sarandon as Prince Humperdinck Mandy Patinkin as Inigo Montoya Christopher Guest as Count Tyrone Rugen André the Giant as Fezzik Wallace Shawn as Vizzini Billy Crystal as Miracle Max Carol Kane as Valerie , Max 's wife Peter Cook as The Impressive Clergyman Mel Smith as The Albino Margery Mason as The Ancient Booer Malcolm Storry as Yellin , a soldier of Florin Willoughby Gray as The King Production ( edit ) Development ( edit ) Rob Reiner , who had been enamored with Goldman 's book ever since he was given it as a gift from his father Carl Reiner , realized he wanted to make the film adaptation after successfully demonstrating his filmmaking skill with the release of This Is Spinal Tap in 1984 . During production of Stand by Me , released in 1986 , Reiner had spoken to an executive at Paramount Pictures regarding what his next film would be , and suggested the adaptation of The Princess Bride . He was told they could n't do that , leading Reiner to discover that several studios had previously attempted to bring Goldman 's book to the big screen without success . Among those previous attempts include 20th Century Fox , which paid Goldman $500,000 for the film rights and to do a screenplay in 1973 . Richard Lester was signed to direct and the movie was almost made , but the head of production at Fox was fired and the project was put on hiatus . Goldman subsequently bought back the film rights to the novel with his own money . Other directors had also attempted to adapt the book , including Francois Truffaut , Robert Redford , and Norman Jewison , and at one point , Christopher Reeve was interested in playing Westley in one planned adaption . However , Reiner had found success by gaining financial support from Norman Lear , who Reiner knew from All in the Family and who had funded production of This is Spinal Tap , with the production to be distributed by 20th Century Fox . Reiner worked closely with Goldman to adapt the book for the screenplay . Casting ( edit ) Reiner had quickly decided on Cary Elwes for Westley , based on his performance in Lady Jane . However , during the casting period in Los Angeles , Elwes was in Germany on set for Maschenka . Reiner flew out to Munich to meet with Elwes , confirming his appropriateness for the role . While Reiner and casting director Jane Jenkins auditioned other actors for Westley , they knew Elwes was perfect for the part . Elwes himself had read the book in his childhood and associated himself with the character of Westley , but never believed he would have the opportunity to play him . Robin Wright was cast late in the process , about a week prior to the start of filming ; Reiner and Jenkins had auditioned a number of English actresses but had not found their ideal Buttercup . Wright 's agent had heard of the casting call and encouraged Wright to audition . Though initially shy , Wright impressed Jenkins , and later Reiner . They invited Wright to come meet Goldman at his house . Jenkins recalls : `` The doorbell rang . Rob went to the door , and literally , as he opened the door , ( Wright ) was standing there in this little white summer dress , with her long blonde hair , and she had a halo from the sun . She was backlit by God . And Bill Goldman looked across the room at her , and he said , ' Well , that 's what I wrote . ' It was the most perfect thing . '' Mandy Patinkin and Wallace Shawn were early choices for the cast ; Shawn in particular was chosen as Vizzini due to his diminutive size to contrast that of the giant Fezzik . For Fezzik , the production crew told Jenkins they wanted someone the likes of Andre the Giant in size . She contacted the World Wrestling Federation to ask about hiring Andre , but were told that the filming conflicted with a wrestling match in Tokyo that would pay him $5 million dollars . Jenkins auditioned other tall men , including Kareem Abdul - Jabbar , Lou Ferrigno , and Carel Struycken , but these did n't pan out . Near the end of filming , the World Wrestling Federation told Jenkins that Andre 's match in Tokyo had been cancelled , clearing him to play the part in their film . Filming ( edit ) The Cliffs of Insanity are actually the Cliffs of Moher in County Clare , Ireland . The film was shot in various locations in Great Britain and Ireland : Carl Wark , Sheffield , England Burnham Beeches , Buckinghamshire , England Lathkill Dale where it meets Cales Dale ( the ' Battle of wits ' scene ) Cave Dale , Castleton , Derbyshire , England Bradley Rocks and Robin Hood 's Stride , Birchover , Derbyshire , England Cliffs of Moher , County Clare , Ireland ( for the Cliffs of Insanity ) Haddon Hall , Bakewell , Derbyshire , England Penshurst Place , Kent , England The framing story scenes , the last to be filmed , were recorded at Shepperton Studios in Surrey . Reiner rented a house in England near these sites and frequently invited the cast over for meals and light - hearted get - togethers . Many cast members believed this helped to create a sense of `` family '' that helped to improve their performances for the film . Cary Elwes and Mandy Patinkin learned to fence ( both left - and right - handed ) for the film , and performed these scenes themselves , outside of the two somersaults which were performed by stunt doubles . They were trained by fencing instructors Bob Anderson and Peter Diamond , both of whom had also worked on training the actors in the original Star Wars trilogy . Elwes and Patinkin spent about three weeks prior to filming learning to fence , and while spending most of their off - camera free time to practice . Anderson encouraged the two to learn the other 's choreography for the fight , as to help them anticipate the movements and avoid an accident . They also watched as many sword fights from previous films to see how they could improve on those . Popular professional wrestler André the Giant had undergone major back surgery prior to filming and , despite his great size and strength , could not support the weight of Cary Elwes during their fight scene or Robin Wright for a scene at the end of the film . For the wrestling scene , when Elwes was pretending to hang on André 's back , he was actually walking on a series of ramps below the camera during close - ups . For the wide shots , a stunt double took the place of André . When he was apparently carrying Wright , she was actually suspended by cables . Billy Crystal and Carol Kane spent time before traveling to England to work out the backstory between Miracle Max and his wife , and develop a rapport for their characters . Once on set , Reiner allowed the pair to improvise some of their lines . Soundtrack ( edit ) Main article : The Princess Bride ( album ) The original soundtrack album was composed by Mark Knopfler , and released by Warner Bros. Records in the United States and Vertigo Records internationally in November 1987 . The album contains the song `` Storybook Love '' , performed by Willy DeVille and produced by Mark Knopfler . It was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song at the 60th Academy Awards . In his audio commentary of the film on the special edition DVD , director Rob Reiner said that only Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits could create a soundtrack to capture the film 's quirky yet romantic nature . Reiner was an admirer of Knopfler 's work but did not know him before working on the film . He sent the script to him hoping he would agree to score the film . Knopfler agreed on one condition : that somewhere in the film Reiner would include the USS Coral Sea ( CV - 43 ) baseball cap ( which had been modified to say `` USS Ooral Sea OV - 4B '' ) he wore as Marty DiBergi in This Is Spinal Tap . Reiner was unable to produce the original cap , but did include a similar cap in the grandson 's room . Knopfler later said he was joking . Reception ( edit ) Box office ( edit ) The film was initially a modest success , grossing $30.8 million at the United States and Canada box office , on a $16 million production budget . Critical response ( edit ) The Princess Bride received critical acclaim . On Rotten Tomatoes , the film holds a 97 % `` Certified Fresh '' rating , based on 64 reviews , with an average rating of 8.3 / 10 . The site 's consensus states : `` A delightfully postmodern fairy tale , The Princess Bride is a deft , intelligent mix of swashbuckling , romance , and comedy that takes an age - old damsel - in - distress story and makes it fresh . '' On Metacritic , the film holds a score of 77 out of 100 , based on 20 critics , indicating `` generally favorable reviews . '' Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert gave the film a `` two thumbs up '' rating on their television program . Ebert also wrote a very favorable print review in his column for the Chicago Sun - Times . Richard Corliss of Time said the film was fun for the whole family , and later , Time listed the film as one of the `` Best of ' 87 '' . Janet Maslin of The New York Times praised the cast and the sweetness of the film . Legacy ( edit ) The Princess Bride was not a major box - office success , but it became a cult classic after its release to the home video market . The film is widely regarded as eminently quotable . Elwes noted in 2017 , on the film 's 30th anniversary , that fans still frequently come up to him and quote lines back to the movie , while he knows that Wallace Shawn had it `` worse '' , in that any time Wallace made a small error like dropping his keys , people would shout the word `` Inconceivable ! '' to him . In 2000 , readers of Total Film magazine voted The Princess Bride the 38th greatest comedy film of all time . In 2006 , William Goldman 's screenplay was selected by the Writers Guild of America as the 84th best screenplay of all time ; it earned the same ranking in the Guild 's 2013 update . The film was selected number 88 on The American Film Institute 's ( AFI ) `` AFI 's 100 Years ... 100 Passions '' listing the 100 greatest film love stories of all time . BBC Radio 5 's resident film critic , Mark Kermode , is a fan of the film , frequently considering it a model to which similar films aspire. . American Film Institute lists AFI 's 100 Years ... 100 Laughs -- Nominated AFI 's 100 Years ... 100 Passions -- No. 88 AFI 's 100 Years ... 100 Movie Quotes : `` Hello . My name is Inigo Montoya .

'' -- Nominated AFI 's 10 Top 10 -- Nominated Fantasy Film In December 2011 , director Jason Reitman staged a live dramatic reading of The Princess Bride script at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art ( LACMA ) , with Paul Rudd as Westley ; Mindy Kaling as Buttercup ; Patton Oswalt as Vizzini ; Kevin Pollak as Miracle Max ; Goran Visnjic as Inigo Montoya ; Cary Elwes ( switching roles ) as Humperdinck ; director Rob Reiner as the grandfather ; and Fred Savage reprising his role as the grandson . In 2013 , director Ari Folman released a live action / animation film , The Congress , directly referencing the film and starring Robin Wright herself as a digitally cloned actress . In 2014 , Cary Elwes wrote As You Wish : Inconceivable Tales From the Making of The Princess Bride , a behind - the - scenes account of the film 's production , co-written with Joe Layden . To help Elwes recall the production , Lear sent him a bound copy of the filming 's call sheets . The book debuted at # 3 on the New York Times Bestseller list . In addition to a foreword by director Rob Reiner and a limited edition poster , the book includes exclusive photos and interviews with the cast members from the 25th anniversary cast reunion , as well as unique stories and set secrets from the making of the film . Post-theatrical release ( edit ) In North America , the film was released on VHS and Laserdisc in 1988 by Nelson Entertainment , the latter being a `` bare bones '' release in unmatted full screen . New Line Home Video reissued the VHS in 1994 . The film was also released on Video CD by Philips . The Criterion Collection released a matted widescreen version , bare bones version on laserdisc in 1989 , supplementing it with liner notes . In 1997 Criterion re-released the Laserdisc as a `` special edition '' . This edition was widescreen and included an audio commentary by Rob Reiner , William Goldman , Andrew Scheinman , Billy Crystal , and Peter Falk ; excerpts from the novel read by Rob Reiner ; behind the scenes footage ; a production scrapbook by unit photographer Clive Coote ; design sketches by production designer Norman Garwood ; and excerpts from the television series Morton and Hayes , directed by Christopher Guest . By 2000 , MGM had acquired the US home video rights to the film ( as part of the `` pre-1996 Polygram film library '' package ) and released the film on VHS and DVD . The DVD release featured the soundtrack remastered in Dolby Digital 5.1 with the film in wide and full screen versions , and included the original US theatrical trailer . The next year MGM re-released the film in another widescreen `` special edition '' , this time with two audio commentaries -- one by Rob Reiner , the other by William Goldman -- `` As You Wish '' , `` Promotional '' , and `` Making Of '' featurettes ; a `` Cary Elwes Video Diary '' ; the US and UK theatrical trailers ; four television spots ; a photo gallery ; and a collectible booklet . In 2006 , MGM released a two - disc set with varying covers -- the `` Dread Pirate '' and `` Buttercup '' editions . Each featured their respective character , but had identical features : in addition to the features in the previous release were , the `` Dread Pirate Roberts : Greatest Legend of the Seven Seas '' , `` Love is Like a Storybook Story '' , and `` Miraculous Make Up '' featurettes , `` The Quotable Battle of Wits '' game , and Fezzik 's `` Guide to Florin '' booklet . Another year later , to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the film , MGM and 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment ( whose parent company 20th Century Fox continues to hold all US rights to the film except for US home video rights ) released the film with flippable cover art featuring the title displayed in an ambigram . This DVD did not include any of the bonus features from the older editions , but had new short featurettes and a new game . A Blu - ray Disc was released on March 17 , 2009 , encoded in 5.1 DTS - HD Master Audio . Special features include two audio commentaries , the original theatrical trailer and eight featurettes . In 2007 , the film was released for download in the iTunes Store . The film is also available in Region 2 where it is published by Lions Gate Entertainment . Its extras are the theatrical trailer and text filmographies . Adaptations ( edit ) It was announced that composer Adam Guettel was working with William Goldman on a musical adaptation of The Princess Bride in 2006 . The project was abandoned in February 2007 after Goldman reportedly demanded 75 percent of the author 's share , even though Guettel was writing both the music and the lyrics . Some of Guettel 's music for the production has since surfaced in concert performances and workshops . In late 2013 , Disney Theatrical Productions announced that they will adapt a stage musical adaptation of The Princess Bride . A website was launched a couple of months later . In 2016 , Rob Reiner revealed that the project was still in development despite `` roadblocks '' and that Marc Shaiman , Randy Newman and John Mayer had all been approached to write songs , but had turned them down . As of March 2018 , there has yet to be anymore updates . In 2008 , PlayRoom Entertainment released The Princess Bride : Storming the Castle , a board game based on the film . The Princess Bride Game is a casual video game developed and published by New York game development studio Worldwide Biggies . References ( edit ) Jump up ^ `` 50 Greatest Comedy Films '' .

Old North Church - wikipedia Old North Church Jump to : navigation , search This article is about the Christ Church in the City of Boston . For other places , see Old North ( disambiguation ) . Old North Church U.S. National Register of Historic Places U.S. National Historic Landmark Image of the North End , Boston neighborhood . The Old North Church is at center , a Big Dig vent building is near the bottom , and the green Tobin Bridge over the Mystic River is at the top .

This phrase is related to Paul Revere 's midnight ride , of April 18 , 1775 , which preceded the Battles of Lexington and Concord during the American Revolution . The church is a mission of the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts . It is the oldest standing church building in Boston and is a National Historic Landmark . Inside the church is a bust of George Washington , which Gilbert du Motier , Marquis de Lafayette , reportedly remarked was the best likeness of the first president he had ever seen . Contents ( hide ) 1 History 2 U.S. bicentennial celebration 3 The bells 4 Steeple damage 5 The other `` Old North '' 6 Crypt 7 Today 8 See also 9 References 10 Further reading 11 External links History ( edit ) The Old North Church was built in December , 1723 , and was inspired by the works of Christopher Wren , the British architect who was responsible for rebuilding London after the Great Fire . Timothy Cutler was the founding rector after serving as third rector of Yale College from 1719 to 1722 . In April 1775 , Paul Revere told three Boston patriots to hang two lanterns in the steeple . These men were the church sexton Robert Newman and Captain John Pulling -- the two of whom historian David Hackett Fischer suggests each carried one lantern up to the steeple -- as well as Thomas Bernard , who stood watch for British troops outside the church . The lanterns were displayed to send a warning to Charlestown patriots across the Charles River about the movements of the British Army . Revere and William Dawes would later deliver the same message to Lexington themselves , but this lantern method was a fast way to inform the back - up riders in Charlestown about the movements of the British ; these back - up riders planned to deliver the warning message to Lexington and Concord in case Revere and Dawes were arrested on the way . The lanterns were hung for just under a minute to avoid catching the eyes of the British troops occupying Boston , but this was long enough for the message to be received in Charlestown . The militia waiting across the river had been told to look for the signal lanterns , and were prepared to act as soon as they saw them . The meaning of two lanterns has been memorized by countless American schoolchildren . `` One if by land , and two if by sea '' is from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 's poem `` Paul Revere 's Ride '' . One lantern was to notify Charlestown that the British Army would march over Boston Neck and the Great Bridge , and two were to notify them that the troops were taking boats across the Charles River to land near Phips farm ( the British Army would take the `` sea '' route ; thus , two lanterns were hung ) . After receiving the signal , the Charlestown Patriots sent out a rider to Lexington , but this rider did not reach his destination and his identity has disappeared from history . He was the one who might have been captured by a British patrol . But the warning was delivered miles away to dozens of towns , first by Revere and Dawes on horses , and then by other men on horses and men who rang church bells and town bells , beat drums , and shot off warning guns . ( The current status of the lanterns is not entirely clear ; one is said to be in the hands of a private collector , another broken during a tour , and yet another is on display at the Concord Museum . ) Us Bicentennial celebration ( edit ) This statue of Paul Revere outside the Old North Church commemorates his memorable ride . President Gerald Ford visited Old North Church on April 18 , 1975 . In his nationally televised speech , the President said , in part : Let us pray here in the Old North Church tonight that those who follow 100 years or 200 years from now may look back at us and say : We were a society which combined reason with liberty and hope with freedom . May it be said above all : We kept the faith , freedom flourished , liberty lived . These are the abiding principles of our past and the greatest promise of our future . Following President Ford 's remarks , two lanterns were lit by Robert Newman Ruggles and Robert Newman Sheet , descendants of Robert Newman , who , as sexton of the Old North Church in 1775 , lit the two lanterns which signaled the movement of British troops . The President then lit a third lantern , which hangs in a window of the church today . On July 11 , 1976 , Queen Elizabeth II visited Boston as part of celebrations honoring the United States Bicentennial , and made reference to the aforementioned celebration events in April 1975 that followed President Ford 's speech . She said : `` At the Old North Church last year , your President lit a third lantern dedicated to America 's third century of freedom and to renewed faith in the American ideals . May its light never be dimmed . '' The Queen and Prince Philip attended a Sunday morning service at the Old North Church , sitting in a pew at the right front . The Rev. Robert W. Golledge led the service and later presented the Queen with a replica of a silver chalice made by Paul Revere . The Queen was shown the iconic statue of Paul Revere by Cyrus E. Dallin near the church before departing in a motorcade to attend a function at the Old State House . The bells ( edit ) Steeple of the Old North Church Eight change ringing bells ( tenor : 13 long cwt 3 qr 5 lb ( 1,545 lb or 701 kg ) in F ) at Old North Church were cast by Abel Rudhall ( Rudhall of Gloucester ) in Gloucester , England in 1744 and hung in 1745 . One bell has the inscription : `` We are the first ring of bells cast for the British Empire in North America , A.R. 1744 . '' The bells were restored in 1894 and in 1975 . They are maintained and rung regularly by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Guild of Bellringers . Steeple damage ( edit ) Sketch of the Old North Church c. 1882 , showing the 1807 steeple that was destroyed in 1954 . The original steeple of the Old North Church was destroyed by the 1804 Snow hurricane . A replacement steeple , designed by Charles Bulfinch , was toppled by Hurricane Carol on August 25 , 1954 . The current steeple uses design elements from the original and the Bulfinch version . The church is now 174 feet ( 53 m ) tall . At its tip is the original weather vane . The other `` Old North '' ( edit ) Main article : Second Church , Boston Before the construction of the `` Old North Church '' ( Christ Church , Boston ) , there was another church in Boston called the `` Old North '' ( Meetinghouse ) . This Congregationalist meeting house was founded in North Square , across the street from what is now called `` Paul Revere 's house '' . This church was once pastored by Cotton Mather , the minister now known largely for his involvement in the Salem witch trials . Crypt ( edit ) In 2009 , an archeologist began examining the estimated 1,100 bodies buried in 37 tombs in the basement . The crypt was in use between 1732 and 1860 , and each tomb is sealed with a wooden or slate door , with many doors covered over by plaster as ordered by the city of Boston in the 1850s . Founding Rector Timothy Cutler and his wife were buried under the altar together . Other notable figures buried under the church include British Marine Major John Pitcairn , who died at the Battle of Bunker Hill and was entombed along with many other soldiers killed in this battle . So is Captain Samuel Nicholson of the USS Constitution . A behind the scenes tour run by the church takes tourists down into the crypt , as well as up to the bell - ringing chamber .

Question: who hung the lanterns in the old north church


Bacteroides fragilis - wikipedia Bacteroides fragilis Jump to : navigation , search Bacteroides fragilis Scientific classification Kingdom : Bacteria Phylum : Bacteroidetes Class : Bacteroidia Order : Bacteroidales Family : Bacteroidaceae Genus : Bacteroides Species : Bacteroides fragilis Bacteroides fragilis is an obligately anaerobic , Gram - negative , rod - shaped bacterium . It is part of the normal flora of the human colon and is generally commensal , but can cause infection if displaced into the bloodstream or surrounding tissue following surgery , disease , or trauma . Contents ( hide ) 1 Epidemiology and pathogenesis 2 Treatment 3 Environmental research 4 See also 5 References 6 External links Epidemiology and pathogenesis ( edit ) The B. fragilis group is the most commonly isolated Bacteroidaceae in anaerobic infections , especially those that originate from the gastrointestinal flora . B. fragilis is the most prevalent organism in the B. fragilis group , accounting for 41 % to 78 % of the isolates of the group . These organisms are resistant to penicillin by virtue of production of beta - lactamase , and by other unknown factors . This group was formerly classified as subspecies of B. fragilis ( i.e. B. f. ssp . fragilis , B. f. ssp . distasonis , B. f. ssp . ovatus , B. f. ssp . thetaiotaomicron , and B. f. ssp . vulgatus ) . They have been reclassified into distinct species on the basis of DNA homology studies . B. fragilis ( formerly known as B. f. ssp . fragilis ) is often recovered from blood , pleural fluid , peritoneal fluid , wounds , and brain abscesses . Although the B. fragilis group is the most common species found in clinical specimens , it is the least common Bacteroides present in fecal flora , comprising only 0.5 % of the bacteria present in stool . Their pathogenicity partly results from their ability to produce capsular polysaccharide , which is protective against phagocytosis and stimulates abscess formation . B. fragilis is involved in 90 % of anaerobic peritoneal infections . It also causes bacteremia associated with intraabdominal infections , peritonitis and abscesses following rupture of viscus , and subcutaneous abscesses or burns near the anus . Though it is gram negative , it has an altered LPS and does not cause endotoxic shock . Bacteroides fragilis Classification and external resources MeSH D001442 ( edit on Wikidata ) Treatment ( edit ) In general , B. fragilis is susceptible to metronidazole , carbapenems , tigecycline , beta - lactam / beta - lactamase inhibitor combinations ( e.g. , Unasyn , Zosyn ) , and certain antimicrobials of the cephalosporin class , including cefoxitin . The bacteria have inherent high - level resistance to penicillin . Production of beta lactamase appears to be the main mechanism of antibiotic resistance in B. fragilis . Clindamycin is no longer recommended as the first - line agent for B. fragilis due to emerging high - level resistance ( > 30 % in some reports ) .

It was released as the A-side of their fifth single , with the album track `` Getaway . '' The studio version of the song peaked at No. 68 on the Billboard singles chart , besting the band 's previous charting single , `` Kissin ' Time '' ( # 89 ) . A subsequent live version , released as a single in October 1975 , eventually reached No. 12 in early 1976 , the first of six Top 20 songs for Kiss in the 1970s . `` Rock and Roll All Nite '' became Kiss 's signature song and has served as the group 's closing concert number in almost every concert since 1976 . In 2008 it was named the 16th greatest hard rock song of all time by VH1 . The members of Kiss were under intense pressure to put together their third album , 1975 's Dressed to Kill . They were abruptly called off tour to work on a follow - up to 1974 's Hotter Than Hell when the album began to die on the charts , even though they had no new songs ready . The sessions were being produced by the head of their label , Neil Bogart , who was upset that the band had yet to successfully capture the excitement of their live act on record and wanted to correct the problem himself . Rushed to come up with material , the band dipped into their backlog of older songs , as well as writing new ones and then recording them immediately . Bogart suggested that head songwriters Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons come up with an anthem that would serve as a rallying cry for Kiss and their fans , suggesting something akin to Sly & the Family Stone 's `` I Want to Take You Higher . '' While writing back at the hotel , Stanley came up with the line `` I want to rock and roll all night , and party every day . '' After showing the new line to Simmons , he added parts from an older song , reportedly titled `` Drive Me Wild . '' When the song was issued as a single a few months later , it did not storm up the charts . With record label Casablanca in deep financial trouble , Kiss was thinking of leaving for another label , but decided to issue a live album , Alive ! , later in 1975 . The live version of the song was longer than the studio take ( including an Ace Frehley guitar solo that was absent from the original ) , but , as Bogart hoped , it became a number 12 hit , driving straight up the charts the album from which it was taken . Contents ( hide ) 1 Recording 2 Live performances 3 Other versions 4 Appearances 5 Personnel 6 Chart performance 6.1 Weekly charts 6.2 Year - end charts 7 Poison version 7.1 Personnel 8 Notes and references 9 External links Recording ( Edit ) `` Rock and Roll All Nite '' was written by Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons while Kiss was still in Los Angeles , as part of their Hotter than Hell Tour tour . However , during the group 's concert at Cobo Hall in Detroit on January 26 , 1976 , Stanley introduced it as a song that was written in and for Detroit . The tour ended early ( February 1975 ) , when Casablanca Records founder and president Neil Bogart ordered Kiss to return to the studio to record a follow up to Hotter Than Hell , which had stalled on the charts and failed to meet Casablanca 's sales expectations . One of Bogart 's instructions to the band was to compose an anthem , something he felt the band needed . The song itself was inspired by the Slade song `` Cum on Feel the Noize '' . They wrote the pre-chorus , Stanley wrote the chorus , and Simmons wrote the verses , borrowing parts of a song he had previously written , entitled `` Drive Me Wild . '' The song was one of two the group recorded toward the end of the Hotter than Hell Tour prior to returning to Electric Lady Studios for the proper Dressed to Kill recording sessions . For the choruses , the band and Bogart brought in a large group of outside contributors to sing and clap , including members of the Kiss road crew , studio musicians , and Peter Criss 's wife Lydia . Some of the road crew used their jacket zippers to create sound . Live performances ( Edit ) While `` Rock and Roll All Nite '' would eventually become a fixture in Kiss 's live performances , it was not inserted into the band 's setlist immediately . Nor did it immediately replace `` Let Me Go , Rock ' n ' Roll '' as the closing number . Kiss performed the song during the closing ceremonies for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City which proved to be Ace Frehley 's final performance with Kiss to date . They also performed the song live with Adam Lambert during the season 8 finale of American Idol , on May 20 , 2009 at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles . Other versions ( Edit ) The original version of the song , as it appears on Dressed To Kill , does not have a guitar solo , while many later versions do have one . The Kiss Unplugged version features Ace Frehley and Bruce Kulick sharing the solo . The Unplugged version was released as a single and reached number 13 on Billboard 's Mainstream Rock Tracks . The original version also ends while fading away ; all live versions end with the last notes of another Dressed to Kill song , `` Getaway '' . The chorus of the Alive ! version of the song is played at the beginning of `` Detroit Rock City , '' from 1976 's Destroyer .
