the actors really did a great job knowing its a fantasy comedey but they dont let the audience know it except for few instasces with the characters doing something comical it reminds me of mel brooks style of comedy
It really was perfectly cast. The script was good but not so perfect that it couldn’t be ruined by the wrong picks. But no they got the perfect person for every role.
There are only a few movies I can see over and over again and not get bored. Casablanca.......Star Wars-A new hope ...Raiders of the Lost Ark.....and of course The Princess Bride.
I had seen this film at least 30 times on VHS before DVD even came out!😂 It's easily one of the top five most perfect movies ever made. There's not one false frame or bad scene and there's literally not one actor in the film that could have been replaced with a better fit. I had tears in my eyes just watching this video so visceral are the memories it conjures. My fervent hope is that it's never remade. As Elwes said, there's a shortage of perfect films in the world, it would be a shame to damage this one.
This casting is so perfect. Especially Buttercup, Reiner found a tall, elegant, striking girl who you still believed was a real person. Her acting was also extremely good. You actually believe that she became this cold person who was intending to kill herself.
I wonder why Carey Elwes didn't have a bigger career.......he was better looking than Brad Pitt....but maybe this movie type casted him.....I remember seeing him in "Glory" and all I could think of was "as you wish"......
The movie after this I remember seeing him in, Robin Hood Men in Tights so maybe he was typecast. Then a small part in Liar Liar , then Saw......😂😲 very different role
People love this movie so much, nothing they did could come close. The Rock would be Fezick, Chris Pratt would be Westley, Kevin Hart would be Vincinni, John Legizamou or Vin Diesel would be Montoya, Morgan Freeman would be the grandfather, Sydney Sweeney would be Buttercup
The rock /Andre the Giant Kevin Hart/Wally S. Ryan Reynolds /Cary Elwes Kiera Knightly/Robin Wright John Legizamou or Oscar Isaac/ MP (Montoya) Morgan Freeman /Peter F. The movie would be universally hated by fans of the orginal, it'd probably make money so they'd make 2 more. Like fast and the furious or Jumanji series 😖😖😖😖
How touching knowing that the author wrote Fezzik's
with Andre in mind

The casting was a huge part of what made this movie for me. When I read the book, it's these people I see in my mind :)

So, so true!
While everyone else was pretending to be Superman or Batman as a kid, I pretended to be Westley. He was an amazing superhero to me.
My "best movies of all time" list is pretty short - and this one is at the top. There is not even a close second. 😎
this is probably my favorite movie of all time. you have no idea how happy these behind the scenes are making me.
Glad the casting turned out to be perfect and so did the movie.
"Bow to her! Bow to the Queen of Slime! The Queen of Putrescence!
Amen. The "boo...boo' character's performance was Oscar worthy

You missed the filth part.
That part always scared me as a kid 😂

I forgotten my line. Lmao!
I forgot OR I have forgotten
Shame the Albino didn't live to join the interview. Rest in peace Mel Smith. You are sorely missed.
easily one of the best movies ever made
10 years later, still true.
There is not even a close 2nd. There are a lot of great movies, but this is by far the best. 😎
Thank you for the memories
Cary elves is purdy
Yeah the cast was perfect for a classic movie.
Beautiful athletic and f unny, words that have never been said to describe me😂😂😢😢😉

it has been 26 years sincce they made the movie!!
Is it a spoof movie
And there’s no remake. Why couldn’t they make one?
People love this movie so much, nothing they did could come close.

No remake! It messes it all up!
but....they are so different now!!!
Hippopotamic land mass lol 3:20
Whenever my dog lays on top of me I call him that
Maybe it's because my hearing isn't what it used to be anymore, but i've always heard him say Hippopotamic lion bass..." lol. uuggggh.
Today casting would be strictly by wokeness, talent would be a distant second.
