They explore how William Goldman wrote the story for his daughters, why Hollywood struggled to bring it to the screen, and how its unique blend of romance, comedy, action, and satire confused audiences at the time - but ultimately made it timeless. They also discuss André the Giant’s unforgettable performance, Cary Elwes’ unlikely path to leading man status, and why the film’s charm only grows stronger with age. From sword fights and revenge to true love and rodents of unusual size, The Princess Bride is a film that refuses to be forgotten. As you wish. Hosted on Acast.
