An amazing comedy, with a ton of heart, that is endlessly quotable! So glad I was able to watch and enjoy this with Samantha!
Thank you all for the support!
You two come across as a very affable couple; super excited for a reaction Samantha had first dibs on!
Yay
So happy you were able to experience this for the first time without anyone spoiling it! Great reaction, you guys are such a sweet couple.
One of the few movies ever made that is perfect fun for ages 8 to 80, and beloved by just about everyone who has ever seen it.
So many memorable lines and scenes. This is now about 35 years old, and still a major part of countless internet memes.
Classic!!!!!! I remember 1st seeing this a kid, never gets old!!!!!! lol you guys are awesome!!!!!! Take care!!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘
“Grandpa, maybe you can come back and read it to me again tomorrow?
As you wish.”
I’m 54 years old and that moment puts a tear in my eye every time.😂
A bunch of actors re-enacted it during lockdown and the final scene has Rob Reiner playing the kid and Carl Reiner right before he died as the grandfather. I definitely teared up at that.
@@Itwasalwaysme_Noone I watched it on RUclips.
I'm thirty-five and I still get teary-eyed from it, despite however many times I watch it on DVD
Lovely. Age has nothing to do with it, we all feel. which is wonderful:), is it not.
@@highstimulation2497 Agreed
There is an interview with Mandy about this movie. He said they went to the premier and during the movie he started sobbing. His wife started asking what was wrong ,He said "I never dreamed that I would ever be in a movie like this".
That's a beautiful story!
He based his hatred of the six fingered man on the cancer that killed his father in real life.
Who’s Mandy?

The sad thing was poor Andre The Giant was so physically crippled from his wrestling career and his gigantism disease he could barely function. In his prime he could lift 5 women at once, there is a photo of him doing so. At this time when he "caught" Buttercup he couldn't lift hardly anything. They had to have her on wires for him catching her from the tower so there was no weight for him. He was a gem. I met him a year before he died when I was just 9 years old. He showed me a trick of him taking off his ring and putting a silver dollar through it. I remember feeling scared of him at first. But, he was so damn nice, easing me in to his sweetness. It makes me feel bad all these years after. That was a reaction he probably got everyday. Scared. I can still remember putting my tiny 9 year old hand to his. It vanished. Him doing that trick made me smile though, and that's what he probably always wanted. To make us smile. He did then, and this movie he made a generation smile as well.
Several generations. I first saw this as a twelve-year-old at a birthday party, and was so taken with it I insisted my mother see it as well. I have since had the pleasure of introducing it to my own children.
Wow that’s an awesome story. Thanks for sharing.
Speaking of which; if the individual doesn't have a wrestling career, could they still live a full life in spite of their Gigantism?
@@sadlobster1Not really. They usually die young from health complications related to the giantism.
@@sadlobster1 Back in Andre's day they were given a life expectancy of rarely getting to 40 years old. Andre however lived to be 46. Now there's a procedure to stop the gland that secretes the hormone. Medical science wasn't there to treat it in Andre's case.
I once showed this movie to a woman I was interested in and she thought it was "Ok, I guess." We aren't friends anymore.
Anyone who doesn't love this movie is incapable of having fun, and should be avoided.
My guess is she didn't like Firefly either. You dodged a bullet there.
Good call
Mate, she’s a witch.
@@georgemorley1029 turned me into a newt
"We'll never survive!"
"Nonsense! You only say that because no one ever has."
"Life is pain, highness! Any one who says different is selling something."
@@dupersuper1938 I use that line all the time
That line is my favorite of the whole movie, not because of the words that were said, but how it was delivered. There was ZERO sarcasm or exaggeration in Westley's tone. He knew that no one had ever survived the fire swamp, but he also knew they would.
"I swear on the soul of my father, Domingo Montoya, you will reach the top alive."
To this day, that's still my favorite line of dialogue in anything. Ever. It takes him from seeming to the audience like a standard comedic side-henchman who the hero has to overcome; to a character with intrigue and integrity. In one line!
Totally agree, and his acting is just fenomenal at this moment, you can see in his face how serious he is about his words
Agreed. And when he hands the man in black his sword. The whole thing just demonstrates the height of honor and integrity. Two men about to engage in combat but taking each other at their words, handing their only weapon to their adversary. Complimenting the sword and handing it back gently. Sitting side by side discussing things as equals.
I think the only way to improve upon the outcome of the fight would have been to have Wesley, after having won, simply hand Inigo his sword again and makes him swear he will not pursue him to stop him, but will continue his quest for vengeance for his father. I think Inigo had the integrity to comply. Then later on Inigo can still pursue Wesley as an ally as he swore he would not try to stop him, but he never said he would not seek him out to help him.
Billy Crystal's iconic 'Miracle Max' scene was all ad-libbed, and director Rob Reiner was laughing so much when they were filming that he couldn't breathe and thought he might throw up so he had to leave the set for a minute to compose himself.
The way I heard it (from Carey Elwes book), was that Reiner kept ruining the scene by cracking up and had to leave so they could get a good shoot of it.
@@notmee2388 Either way, it's the best.
Wasn’t it William Goldman, the screenwriter, who had to leave the set because he couldn’t stop laughing during the filming of this scene, or am I thinking of another anecdote… idk. Either way, yeah, Billy and Carol just killed this scene!
@@calibadgerdude6082 Now you had me second guessing myself, so I pulled out the book. Here is the quote:
"For three days straight and 10 hours a day, Billy improvised 13th century period jokes, never saying the same thing or the same line twice. Such was the hilarity of his ad-libbing that he actually caused Mandy to injure himself while fighting to suppress the need to laugh. Therefore you can only imagine what it did to me and Rob, who had to leave the set because his boisterous laugh was ruining too many takes."
-Carey Elwes, "As You Wish" 2014,
page 165
Of course, this is his memory from 25 years prior, so we could have all heard different stories with variation in the details.
@@notmee2388 I think you’re right. I read that book as well, and I must be thinking of another scene. I do know Reiner had to kick Goldman off the set on one scene cause he kept audibly reacting to what was going on, might have been one of the intense fighting scenes and he kept yelping loud enough for the cameras to pick up. XD The whole making of this movie is a fascinating tale.
I love the practically constant giggling from TBR. Not loving this movie is inconceivable.
You keep using that word; I do not think it means what you think it means...
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means

@@mem1701movies I'm aware of that. Was the joke lost on you, then?
@@mem1701movies It was lost on you; I get it. Move on with your life.
Westley: Give us the gate key.
Yellin: I have no gate key.
Inigo Montoya: Fezzik, tear his arms off.
Yellin: Oh, you mean *this* gate key.
I can't say it's my favorite line since every line is my favorite line, but that's my favorite line.
It's even funnier to me because Inigo wasn't just talkin to scare the man he really meant it
Whoever it was that played that character has only a few moments, but hits the funny-bone with every one. Like when he puts his hand on the arm of Humperdink's chair.
The grandpa in this film was played by Peter Falk, who is famous primarily as Lieutenant Columbo, the star of a fictional detective series in the 70s and 80s. He made the phrase, "Just one more thing..." famous.
Columbo, McMillan and Wife, and McCloud were staples in my childhood household.

In 25 years of fencing and HEMA I can’t think of anyone I’ve met in those circles who doesn’t class Iñigo vs Westley as one of the greatest sword fights in cinema history. Also, all of the names referenced during the fight - Bonetti, Capoferro, Thibault and Agrippa - are those of real historical fencing masters.
They would Love those old swashbuckler movies with great actors like Douglas Fairbanks/Jr and Errol Flynn. Robin Hood, Captain Blood, Zorro, Captain Kidd, The Count of Monte Cristo, and the like are classics they'd absolutely love
@@LA_HA Basil Rathbone is also a good shout - IIRC he was once the British Army fencing champion. The fight between him and Tyrone Power in The Mark of Zorro is another highly/regarded one, even though they are both clearly using Olympic-style sabres.
@@Moricant Heck yeah
@A S Haha. Thank you for letting me know. I've only seen a couple minutes, so I'll have to check out the whole thing sometime. But, I did hear it's pretty funny
They are in the narration of that scene (which is from Inigo's point of view) in the book. I never knew that he was using historical names there.
This movie is absolute classic. Perfect storytelling. Carl Elwes, Andre, Mandy Patakin (Inigo), Billy Crystal, and the whole cast was fantastic. Yes, it was meant to be a bit corny because it was a children story about honor, love and friendship, but that is what made it awesome. The whole point to the story was the bond it built between grandson and grandpa...yes and I teared when grandpa said, "As you wish."
A couple of very subtle moments I loved:
a) in the Battle of Wits, Westley remained honourable, phrasing the question "Where is the poison," not "Which cup is poisoned," giving Vizzini a fair chance.
b) Westley made a point of how undetectable iocaine powder is, yet Humperdinck took one sniff and correctly identified it.
This movie was not afraid to make its characters competent...
this is two years late, but thank you for pointing these out. I'm not very perceptive, but I love details like these
I worked as an usher in a movie theater when this movie was released. My fellow ushers and I learned the dialog of the entire movie nearly perfectly and would go around quoting scenes from the movie to each other. That was a fun summer.
Since the invention of film there have been five movies that were rated the most passionate, the most pure. This one left them all behind.
🤠 You two may be the best reactors on YT, for a number of reasons:
1)You don't talk over important scenes or dialogue. 2) You are honest and not afraid to say "I don't know" instead of just making up an answer. 3) You offer intelligent and thoughtful commentary about the films you watch. 4) You LISTEN and read your viewer comments, and often respond to them. 5) You pick great movies and shows to react to and analyze. 6) You don't "dumb down" your opinions just to satisfy the masses. 7) You listen to and respect each other, and it shows. 8) Even though you're almost half my age you understand that there was a world BEFORE you, lol. 9) You understand that it's not an "old" movie if you've never seen it! 10) You both have a great sense of humor and understand how things may have been "acceptable" in different times and different eras.
In a SEA of YT reactors you are a breath of fresh air! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. 👍
11. Their thumbnails don't have the two of them, with their mouths wide open pretending to be in shock. Like 99% of all other reaction videos. 😲😮😯
@@v8matey 🤠Exactly! That's an excellent #11 point! 👍
Amen!!! 👏🏻
I concur....
I do enjoy the varied styles of many reactors,, but agree that some 'ham' it up for the camera, or add their amateur new age interpretations, or are offended by movies, ignoring satire, and age specific relevancy. But, to each their own, and I always know that this is consistently one of the best reaction channels.
@@yankeerepairs 🤠 Well said. I often wonder how today's "cancel culture" would treat someone like Don Rickles, one of the funniest comedians of all time. 🤔 He attacked EVERYBODY (including himself)! 😂 I think satire goes right over many heads nowadays. It's a shame because when a society loses the ability to laugh at itself, it's in BIG trouble. 🤐
I love that iocaine powder is tasteless and oderless but Humperdink smells the empty vial and immediately knows what it is. He truly is a master tracker
“If I am wrong, and I’m never wrong…” 😂
I'd bet my life on it!!! And there's Vizzini who just bet his life on it and lost.
Obviously it didn't smell of anything .. therefore it had to be iocaine powder!
Very few people get that joke…
😂
When a supporting cast takes the movie to another level.
With the exception of Inigo's final revenge, this is a movie that is good for all ages. But that final revenge is so satisfying, the way Inigo gives Count Rugen the same scars that Rugen gave Inigo, right down to the sword through the heart like Rugen did to Inigo and his father.
Mandy Patkin, who played Inigo, said in an interview that every time he said the line "Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die" he imagined he was fighting the cancer that took his real life father, which made it deeply cathartic for him when he says "I want my father back you son of a bitch!"
Inigo Montoya was the real main character of this movie to me .Mandy Patinkin should have been nominated for best supporting actor with his performance
This is one of the movies I watch at least once every year. It's endlessly watchable and quotable! Every time I would leave the house as a kid with my friends, my mom would call after me, "Have fun storming the castle!", just like Miracle Max and his wife do.
Sounds like the best mom ever :D
And the behind the scenes is every bit as wonderful and heartwarming as the film they made. Robin Wright remembering Andre keeping her head warm on cold days by using his hands as giant earmuffs is the best.
I recently got to watch this with my two young nephews--they were entranced by the fighting scenes, but would groan loudly at the kissing scenes. At one point the older nephew turned to me, concerned, and asked if Buttercup was going to be okay, because he was so worried about her. It was really cute and fascinating to see Fred Savage's character arc reflected in their real reactions!
Glad to see someone finally include the "To the pain" scene. Most people skip it.
27 Year old Man here. The Final “As You Wish” just happy cries man.
Yeah that's a powerful line. I'm an older dad now with teenagers. But just having the experiences to read to my kids when they are sick and to see a Grandfather say that it just mirrors emotions I have personally felt. It's beautiful 😊
Very personal movie trivia, when Mandy Patimkin gave the line " I want my father back you son of a bitch" his motivation was his anger toward the cancer that took his fathers life:'(
"You killed my father, prepare to die." Nothing says it better than that. With Honor, Revenge purpose, and intensity all wrapped up the perfect quote.
No one can tell me Pedro Pascal didn't have that scene in mind when he fought the Mountain. The same need for revenge, honor and intensity and the constant reminding of what the Mountain did to Oberyn's sister and children. They even looked a bit alike and had that same spanish charm and charisma even though Oberyn was from Dorne which is really Spain in Westros. LOL
@@dsfddsgh I never thought of that. Awesome. Awesome. GOT will never die
I love how you couldn’t stop giggling throughout the whole film. I still get like that when I watch this movie every time.
It got annoying
TBR's giggling is soooo contagious! Love TBR & Sam's reactions :)
William Goldman wrote the novel as a challenge from his daughters. He asked them what kind of story they wanted to hear. One said a story about a princess, the other wanted a story about a bride. Goldman, who was already a novelist and a screenwriter, took it in stride and split the difference. Among other William Goldman films are the ones he won screenwriting Oscars for...'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid' (with Paul Newman and Robert Redford) and 'All The President's Men' (with Dustin Hoffman & Robert Redford as Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward who broke the story of Watergate that brought down the Nixon White House). He also adapted Stephen King's 'Misery' for Rob Reiner.
We haven’t seen any of those but would love to explore more Goldman films!
And the book is great
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is one of my all time favorite movies, and Paul Newman one of my favorite actors. Great stuff.
The final "I want my father back you son of a bitch." Mandy P. was so emotional (He lost his father to Cancer and he viewed the six finger man as the cancer) that the other actor was legitimately scared that Mandy was going to kill him. If you listen close, he loses Inigo's accent there for just a small moment.
I first saw this when I stayed home sick from school. My mother had rented it from Blockbuster and upon hearing the title, I thought “Jeez Mom, this sounds a bit girly!” When I watched it, the first turning point for me was seeing Andre (big WWF fan), then the sword fight and I was hooked!! If it’s on TV, you can bet I’m watching it!!
Rusty: "Mom. Maybe you could rent it again tomorrow?"
Rusty's Mom: "As you wish." :)
For some reason, I completely missed this movie during my childhood. When I reached 30, my best friend and I talked about our childhood movies and he told me about this one. We watched it together, and all that childhood feel-good times filled me like I was 10. Loved it, it was rejuvanating .
The Princess Bride is my all-time favourite film! (Clue is a close second) I have seen it so many times and never tire of it.
Inigo is my favourite too and is the most quoted character I think.
I have read the book and even stage managed a youth theatre production of it as a teenager, which was one of my proudest moments, so I have so many positive feelings towards the story. I love watching others see it for the first time, especially if they end up loving it. So glad you enjoyed it. Wonderful reaction. Thank you for helping me keep smiling.
8:42 The reason the airtime for the sword was so long was because Bob Anderson actually was sitting above on a crane dolly above Cary and Mandy. When the sword went up, he caught it, let Mandy move into position and when he was ready, Bob dropped the sword into his hand to continue the scene without cutting and stopping the filming to get that long shot.
Christopher Guest (Count Rugen) has an incredible list of 'mockumentaries' that are must-sees. This Is Spinal Tap, Best in Show, Waiting for Guffman, A Mighty Wind. So, so good! He is a SNL alum and husband of Jamie Lee Curtis and an all around incredible talent.
And in this movie his fingers "go to eleven".
Absolutley! I forgot to put those on my recommendations! Definitely Best In Show and This Is Spinal Tap are two comedies that are inevitably in their future, lol. (and Rob Reiner, who directed Princess Bride, directed This Is Spinal Tap, it was his first movie. Princess Bride was his third). Absolutely: This Is Spinal Tap and Best In Show. In either order.

This is one of the five best movies ever made. I'm very excited that you get to see it for the first time Schmitt. I can literally quote every line. I've also read the book to all five of my kids when they were sick.
To me, this is a perfect movie.
It's been so long since I read the book. The only thing I remember is that she named her horse "Horse," because she had a poor imagination.
@@notmee2388 HA! I had forgotten that fact. It really is a wonderful book.
@@JKM395 Did you ever come across the book written under Goldman's pen name S. Morgenstern, called The Silent Gondoliers?
I remember enjoying it, but very little about it, except that it was set in Venice.
I prolly read both around 1988.
@@notmee2388 No. I've not heard of that at all. I'll certainly be looking for now. For some reason, I never thought to check what else he wrote until now. Thank you.
@@JKM395 I think that was the only book he wrote under that name. I was 14 at the time, and was confused because the movie said the author was Morgenstern, but the book said Goldman.
It's a short book. Probably 200 pages at a guess.
Best freaking movie ever. And that last "As you wish." has me tearing up every time.
The lifelong quote in our family is the wedding ceremony. " Marrwag is what brings us together twooday. Lwuv twooo lwuv."
The talented Chris Sarandon is in this guys, which reminds me, you two need to watch Fright Night. You'll love it.
I would add Dog Day Afternoon as another great Chris Sarandon role to check out.
I'll see your "Fright Night," and raise you "The Resurrected."
That's the original Fright znight, from the 80s, btw, not the decent but inferior remake from a few years ago.
....or Dog Day Afternoon!!!! I think he got an Oscar for that one.
@@jean-paulaudette9246 The Resurrected is also so good!! Super underrated.
So many people wonder why Buttercup can't see by his eyes that it's Westley. They forget that most of the movie is just a representation of Fred Savage's imagination as he follows the story that Peter Falk is reading. He (and therefore Buttercup) doesn't know the truth until it's revealed in the story.
That makes total sense! Thanks for clearing that up!
@@dusty3913 I'm not sure what dialogue you're referring to that renders my explanation illogical, but I have to say your explanation is also plausible.
Did anyone else find it hilarious when Buttercup realizes it's Wesley rolling down the hill and immediately throws herself after him?
This is the #1 movie of my childhood.
I have the VCR tape, the dvd, the bluray, and the novel.
God I love it.
Just a great, feel good and quotable movie.
A timeless classic.
Agreed!
I love that Alamo Drafthouse (movie chain) does quote-alongs of this movie, and basically the entire movie is quoted.
My dad told me we should go see this when I was 14. I didn't want to becuz of the title. But he dragged me to it and I loved it, so I told my best friend that he should see it. He also didn't want to becuz of the title, so I took him and made him watch it. He loved it, and organized a watch party of pretty much our entire circle of friends so the next time I saw it was in a group of about 40.
'Tis a good memory.
Glad you all loved it. This is in my top 3 fave movies of all-time. It still holds up quite well after 34 years.
35 years later and I'm still telling people "have fun storming the castle" when they leave. 😂
This is one of those movies, and they are very rare, which are pefectly scripted, performed, and presented. There is not a moment, after that first five minutes, that you're not drawn in and held by the story being told....and that sense of "oh, its over"...when the end comes. So few movies have held me like this one did. I envy those people who discover it for the first time. God bless, love this reaction! Thank you!
"My name is Ingnio Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."
"Stop saying that!"
" "
One of the best swordfight in cinema history...It looks so cheesy or corny, but so technically good at the same time and pretty fun to see ! So unique !
"I'm not left handed either!"
And with the exception of the gymnastics routines, the entire fight was done without stuntmen. Elwes and Patinkin spent weeks learning the fencing routines, and were very proud to have done it themselves.
Totally. That and the 1973 version of "The Three Musketeers" are the best fencing scenes from at least the 60s on, if not before. (The Douglas Fairbanks movies of the 20s are still fantastic, and the whole look of Westley (and all swashbucklers) always pay homage to Fairbanks, starting with the mustache.
If you are a fan of sword fights - and repartee whilst fighting - I can heartily recommend the 1937 *Prisoner of Zenda* and the fight between Ronald Colman (Rassendyl) and Douglas Fairbanks Jr (Rupert). Truly excellent. Also the sword fighting in the Luxemburg Gardens in the 1948 *The Three Musketeers* with Gene Kelley (d'Artagnan), where Gene makes excellent acrobatic use of the surrounding scenery.
There's hardly a more intelligent, engaging, thoughtful, honest, and lovely couple in the reaction genre than this pair! There it is-I said it.
For movies maybe but not music
ditto! They got my subscription and also my patronage!
Love your reaction ! I've seen a number of first time reactions to this movie (one of my favorites) recently, and so many don't realize it is a farce/comedy until well into the movie. I love how your sense of humor allowed you to enjoy it to the fullest throughout. The swordfight between Westley and Inigo IS one of the best swordfights on film in all history. They put a great deal of effort into it. Look it up ! And the number of AWESOME quotes in this movie is almost beyond compare !
Movies considered close to perfect: Shawshank Redemption, The Princess Bride, Galaxy Quest
Back to the Future, Godfather I and II, the Empire Strikes Back
@@LA_HA i'd agree with at least 3 of those and i'd add peewee's big adventure

The swordfight on the top of the cliffs was supposed to be " the greatest sword fight in the history of cinema"
So of course, the novel _The Princess Bride_ (which Peter Falk reads to Fred) predates the movie, but it was such a stroke of brilliance for the movie to have that extra layer of "the real world" with the grandfather reading the book to his grandson, rather than it just being a cinematic rendering of the book. It adds a special dimension to the experience :-)
But the novel itself has a similar framing device, conceived to be the 'good parts version' that Goldman's father had read to _him_ when he was a boy, and which, as an adult, he discovered was full of unreadable political satire and things that his father had excised. The book has whole sections in red ink telling you what has been edited out of this 'good parts' story. Goldman brilliantly adapted this structure to the film. So it _is_ 'a cinematic rendering of the book', just not the way you mean it.
I sometimes want to watch this movie but don't want to spend it alone nor spend as much time so I come back to this video from time to time just because I love watching Daniel giggle all the way through the movie. lol
I'm honored to say I saw this movie twice in the theater when it first came out.
"I do not think it means what you think it means."

I shared this movie with my granddaughter recently. I felt like the grandpa in the movie.
The albino is played by actor, Mel Smith. When I was a kid I was so popular with my friends because my name appears in the credits of this amazing movie. I felt like a hero. Lol.
I really enjoy your reactions. One of my favorite channels on RUclips. I actually look forward to each of your videos like awaiting a new episode of a riveting show. Thank you for your channel.
One of my favorite stories about this movie is Robin Wright talking about how sweet of a man Andre was. It was raining on set one day and she was getting cold so Andre put his hand over head and kept her dry, that's how massive his hand was.
I has someone read this book to me. Even after seeing the movie a thousand times, it was still beautiful to hear. 💜✌️
This is my favorite movie of all time. It has everything Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles... The book is amazing as well
A perfectly pitched fantasy comedy, for adults and kids alike. Great ensemble cast too: 'albino guy' is Mel Smith, and the Priest is Peter Cook, both very well known comedians in the UK, sadly now passed. I dont feel this film got the respect it deserved at the time , but has become a cult classic.
One of the most heart warming couples watches one of the most heart warming movies.
Saw this on a second date with my (now ex) wife. I should’ve known it wouldn’t work out when she didn’t like it!🤣
Yeah it’s fascinating to me how this is so many guys favorite or in the top favorite movies, yet so many women think it’s just okay or don’t care for it.
🚩😂
I can't imagine being friends with someone who doesn't like this movie. It boggles my mind that it's even possible. This movie is perfection.
@@stillmagic714 Same, I remember going to University and meeting a guy who didn't like this movie. Instantly lowered my opinion of him, and as the semester went on, his actions proved me right.
My favorite line is Billy Crystal’s “So long boys, have fun storming the castle!”
This was a dare when i was a kid. Its was how can you not be a pirate and be a first love in one movie. We all loved it
For how little of it there is, the revenge story between Inigo and Count Rugen is one of the best of all time, which is impressive since we as the audience aren't given that big of a reason to care about his quest. We know what happened to his father and we're told that he was very close with his father, but that's about it. And yet it's pulled off so well
It's 100% the passion of the actor.
I fenced for seven years and in the world of cinematic fencing scenes, the one from this movie is famous amongst fencers.
You absolutely nailed who played Miracle Max and Valerie. Love your reactions!
as someone who has major portions memorized, it's nice to see newbies watch it
The 'cheesiness' of this film, is because it is shown by what the boy imagines it to be.
I used to work near to Burnham Beeches, where they filmed a few of the forest scenes in this film (including the bit when Westley and Buttercup emerged from the fire swamp). I often went for lunchtime walks there. Sadly, I never saw any ROUSs there.
Absolutely one of the finest films ever made.
Still cant believe the guy who plays the Spaniard became Gideon on criminal minds
This is one of my favorite movies of all time. I can watch it pretty much any time, in any mood. If someone says they hate this movie I kind of react the same way as if they had said they hate puppies. It just doesn't make sense not to like this movie.
André the Giant...wrestler and actor...One of the most massive man to ever live ! His hands alone are bigger than any man skulls...Impressive is the best way to describe that man !!
Robin Wright was cold on set one day, and he rubbed his hands together and then rested one right on top of her head to warm her up.
love carys story about andre and sam beckett ruclips.net/video/BCgfL-CLoA4/видео.html ruclips.net/video/SKx11LGIf8M/видео.html
@@jimmorrish6771 That's one of those facts you wouldn't believe unless proved to you. I can just see little boy Andre given a free pass to Waiting for Godot, staring quizzically from the back row.
@@parallaxnick637 i didn't say it was true, i said it was a great story, lol .... it'd be absolutely amazing if it were true tho' :)
This movie is a masterpiece!! I met Cary Elwes at a screening of it in a stage theater in my area. I met Wallace Shawn, Vincini, at comic con and got his autograph on my Princess copy. I met Chris Sarandon, Prince Humperdinck at Comic con too. Yes the guy from Shrek was based off him. This evil Prince played the head Vampire in the movie Fright Night.
Sharing this with someone you love is a wise and wonderful move. Great not only for the experience, but a test of their character. Never trust anyone who doesn't like this movie.
Something incredibly clever that not many people notice is the two countries are called Guilder and Florin. These are two different names for the same coin, indicating that the nations are interchangeable.
One of the most perfect movies in human history, it can be watched by any generation, with no need to be remade or rebooted or even a sequel. Glad you enjoyed it.
Princess Bride is easily in the all time Top 5 on everyone's list! So glad you finally reacted to this movie. Suggest creating a list of movies that YOU both have NOT seen and create a survey. Some movies such as : Brian's Song - 1971 {James Caan & Billy dee Williams}; Cool Hand Luke - 1967 {Paul Newman & George Kennedy}; Fantastic Voyage - 1966 {Raquel Welch}; The Man Without a face - 1993 {Mel Gibson}; Starman - 1984 {Jeff Bridges}; The Substitute - 1996 {Tom Berenger}; The Andromeda Strain - 1971 {Techno-Thriller}. There are countless other movies that can be added to this list. [Anyone else can feel free to add to this list in their replies].
Glade you two enjoyed it it is one of my favourites my grandfather recorded it for me when I was a kid and I enjoyed it and today I still do and I am 20.
A bit of trivia, the night Andre first read the script, he also drank 152 beers and passed out in the hotel lobby. As he was too heavy for staff to move him, they cordoned him off.
To have seen the Princess Bride, is to be able to quote the Princess Bride. Forever.
The "grandfather" is Peter Falk.
I'm 76, and the "book" part of it was what it was like when I was a kid. That was often used to trick kids into reading for themselves -- the book would be read by my mother, as she'd always done. Then, eventually, part way through a book (it was about "Tarzan"), she suddenly got too busy to continue, so I had to finish reading it for myself.
From there I read every book in the house.
One of my all time favorites. And seriously, the fight between Wesley and Inigo is probably the best fencing scene ever filmed.
I remember watching a documentary about Andre the Giant while filming Princess Bride. The cast and crew had wonderful memories about him. One in particular; the mountains climbing scene, the actor who played Vizzini had a great fear of heights. In between takes Andre held him close and whispered, "It's okay don't worry I won't let you fall."
I have a t-shirt that has one of those "Hello, my name is..." stickers that you're supposed to write your name on. This shirt's sticker has "Inigo Montoya, You killed my father, prepare to die" written on it. I always get comments on that shirt.
The prince is played by Chris Sarandon who once was married to Actress Susan Sarandon , she got into acting after their divorce and decided to keep the name
🥰🥰🥰 One of my favorite movies of all time. I have it entirely memorized.
In college the stereo was stolen out of my car and for over 2 years, whenever I was on a reasonably long drive, I’d act out this or one of a couple others I had memorized to pass the time since I had no stereo.
Good times.
Time Bandits, Holy Grail, Buckaroo Banzai.. nice choice, kids!
you guys showed me the new line: "What if he is using the same wind WE are using?"
I've loved this movie forever. Never noticed.
Haha I feel like you could catch something new no matter how many times you’ve seen it!
Screenwriter William Goldman actually wrote a novel version of this story which he passed off as an abridged version of the original novel by S. Morgenstern. He referred to it as "the good-parts version" and put in footnotes describing all the stuff he cut out because it was boring. Of course, there is no S. Morgenstern - the novel was Goldman's all the way. He is an extraordinary screenwriter whose dialogue is always wonderful. Another example of his writing is the groundbreaking western, "Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid."
Peter Falk's "As you wish." is the perfect line to end the film with.
