He seeks a "fallen star" to impress a woman but finds the star to be another woman, named Yvaine. Tristan's quest is to bring Yvaine to Wall, while she herself is pursued by a witch who wants to eat her heart and by princes seeking a gem in her possession that would make them king. Tristan ultimately finds he belongs in Stormhold and among the stars himself.
The film was released to positive reviews and grossed $135.6 million on an $88.5 million budget. In 2008, it won the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation, Long Form.Stardust was released on DVD, Blu-ray, and HD DVD on December 18, 2007, by Paramount Home Entertainment.
