Naturally it all stage combat, but...
Pirates of the Caribbean contained some fairly nice (IMHO) smallsword fencing in the scene with Depp and Bloom in the blacksmith shop.
The Princess Bride uses exaggerated rapier work (late 16th century?), but their moves at the moment do not directly relate to the Renaissance era fencing masters they refer to in their repartee. I will add that the names are all of actual fencing masters whose texts survive and can still be located (many on-line)...
