Mandy Patinkin tells a story of Andre..he noticed the big guy was sitting alone, so he went and asked if he was ok because he was worried. Andre said, "I'm happy. This is the first time in my life that no one pays attention to me, I'm just one of the guys. You have no idea what that's like." Just telling the story, Mandy couldn't hold back the tears.

I saw Andre the Giant leaving a restaurant once. I swear, he had trouble fitting through the door. He looked like a regular guy going through a window. There was another guy on the sidewalk giving Andre the stink eye. When Andre got clear of the door he gave me a super quick look and a smile, then, in true wrestler fashion, he frowned and stomped up to the scowling guy who was now looking like he would loose controll of his bowels. Andre then shook the guys hand with a big smile, quick shoulder squeeze like they were old friends and walked off. Stink eye just stood there mouth breathing. It was the best physical comedy I've ever seen.

[@esmewvimes2901]

This is one of my favorite movies that I've seen at least a dozen times. I feel like I can quote the whole movie, but here is my Princess Bride Story: the scene on the ship where Vizzini, Inago and Fezzik are trying to get away with Buttercup. Vizzini had revealed that Buttercup is going to be killed, and Fezzik and Inago are upset & complaining to Vizzini. Vizzini says: "And remember this, never forget this: [yelling] when I found you, you were so slobbering drunk, you couldn't buy brandy! [Turning to Fezzik] And you! Friendless, brainless, helpless, hopeless! Do you want me to send you to where you were? Unemployed, in Greenland?!" My 3 younger brothers and I burst out laughing because it was just like our mom when we were in trouble and getting cussed out. She'd start by yelling at one, then work her way through all four of us with, AND YOU... About a week or two after we'd seen the movie (mom missed it) us kids got into trouble, and sure enough, she did it. Michael was yelled at first, then she turned to me, pointing, and said, "AND YOU!!" All four of us burst out laughing so hard, we couldn't breathe. It was totally spontaneous. I think we were literally rolling on the floor at one point. Mom stood there in total shock, looking from one to the other like we had lost our minds. She could not BELIEVE that we could laugh at her while getting told off. I remember her eyes just got huge, and she couldn't even talk, her mouth just kept opening and closing, spluttering like a fish, which just made it funnier. By the time we could speak, and explain it to her, she couldn't recall what she had been yelling about, so we took off outside. When my mom finally did see the movie, we all yelled, mom, this is the part that's you!! She didn't admit it, but she blushed so I knew she spotted the similarity. I'm sure this is a long boring story to everyone else, but it's really one of my favourite memories of childhood.

Little known fact : the novel was rejected by every agent approached. In desperation, the author dropped a copy on the doorstep of Richard Maidley of the Richard and Judy show, more in disgust than hope with a note. They broadcast it after reading it and the rest is history. Proof positive agents are witless wonders and a dash of good fortune is required even to get a chance. Ask J K Rowling - her first novel was found in a dustbin after the agent threw it away. We have a publisher's bored eight year old daughter to thank for fishing it out and reading it.

Thanks for sharing these stories. Its pretty sad the way things are at the moment. Hardly any agents accept unsolicited material. It is definitely difficult to get material read. Many agents and managers do their clients a huge disservice by rejecting virtually everything unless they recognize a name or letterhead. Oh well.

That’s pretty impressive since the book was published in 1973, when Richard Madeley was 17 years old. He met Judy Finnegan in 1982 and their show began in 1988, a year after the film was released.

[@voiceofreason162]

@@katoharris A struggling author landed a major publishing deal for her first novel after leaving a draft copy on the doorstep of television presenters Richard and Judy… The college tutor sent the manuscript to several publishing houses but had no reply and was on the verge of giving up. But when her mother-in-law mentioned that Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan had a country retreat nearby she decided to take them a rough copy. Mrs Saberton drove to their secluded house and placed a 400 page manuscript on the doormat and a note through the letterbox asking them to read it. She was then stunned when Richard - who along with his wife hosted a regular book club on their TV show - phoned her and said he loved the novel. Richard, 53, offered to write a foreword and allowed her to use their name when approaching potential publishers - and she soon secured her first deal. That's the story, I verified it.

As a matter of fact, I watched the scene just last night on here. Great stuff. Cooke's portrayal is at least par with "INCONCEIVABLE!", "My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die." and others.

[@lordcrumb07]

That Andre story was hilarious.

[@bcshooterfmjprime7540]

lordcrumb07 absolutely. even the one before it. what a nice funny guy.

[@Matt561]

They just left him there until he woke up.

[@kegginstructure]

Sort of like the question, where does a grizzly bear sleep? Any place he wants!

[@lincolnmaceachern2410]

To those who adore this movie and still watch it for the umpteenth time, READ THE NOVEL. It's like discovering the movie again. It's not "based on the screenplay" so it's not an exact replica, but it's so well written. Even the introduction is laugh out loud.

[@LilyGazou]

I read the book long before I ever saw the Movie. It was fantastic. I was totally immersed in it.

[@otravis676]

This is such a timeless movie. I saw it at the drive-in with my parents in 87 when it came out. I shared this movie with my kids and just recently introduced this wonderful movie to my 8 year old god daughter and we laughed, we cried and she became a life long fan that has shared the movie with her best friends. I can not think of another movie that has ment this much to this many people over the last 35 years

[@kati3676]

Cary Elwes' Bill Clinton impressions is awesome I saw a different interview where he mimicked Rob Reiner and it made me love him even more, great storyteller

[@jacksondavenport9296]

Ikr

[@ssamaco]

That impression was DEAD ON, phenomenal. But I have a feeling that being a born entertainer, his AWESOME impression is why he tells that story so much. LOL

[@pteifert]

one of the few movies I can watch over and over year after year and it never gets old.

[@debraj.thomas661]

One of my favorites and Men in Tights!

[@vwlssnvwls3262]

This has been my favorite movie since I went to see it in the theaters in 1987. I didn't really know what the movie was, but I knew it had Billy Crystal and Andre the Giant, and that was enough for me to go see it. For a couple years after I kept trying to get my friends to watch it, but I think the title just made them feel like they would not like it. Finally I literally forced them to watch it when I came to their house to hang out, as the movie started they kept getting up and doing other things, so 10 minutes in I turned the movie off and said "if you are not going to sit and watch this with me, then I am leaving". They were in shock and sat down to watch it... and they loved it!

[@jasonlajoie]

Robin Wright is even hotter today. How is that even possible?

[@dennisfinan7977]

no

[@mister8800]

She's hotter than most women her age.

[@erad67]

@@mister8800 Most certainly, but I'd still go for the younger version! :)

[@jennymacallan9071]

Chris Sarandon too.

[@darrenheadrick3669]

jasonlajoie, maybe because she doesn't buy into all the hollywierd shit that goes on. Actually if you look at all these actors and their perspective ages, they all look great.

[@downhill240]

My wife and I watched this movie again tonight. I have no idea how many times we have watched it over the years, but it's still fresh and such a lovely story.

[@geoffkeil3135]

"25 years later, we're still talking about this movie ..... why is that?" Because it's a timeless treasure of a movie. A beautiful Classic. (God help any one movie maker that says "REMAKE")

[@Sattnin77]

Love love LOVE this movie!! I was in 4th grade when my Mom took me to the theater to go see it. I was 9. I can't wait until my daughter is old enough to see it. She is 3. She heard her Dad say to me "As you wish" one day answering me sarcastically and ever since she says As you wish, but she doesn't know the reference or significance of it. I can't wait to show her this movie one day!!

[@Ninjacatprincess]

I named my kitten Princess Buttercup because of this movie! : )

[@katelynrupert5768]

Because of this movie, my first cat's name was Buttercup and my second is Princess.

[@warriorcatskid003]

I did too, then he turned out to be a dude, so now he’s just Buttercup

[@lullanie]

What they say about watching it with our kids is so true. Both my kids have loved this film from the first time they say it and even my daughter still enjoys it as a teen. It truly is the perfect movie.

[@noelgreene2848]

I still watch The Princess Bride every time it comes on TV and I love it as much as I did when it first came out. It really is the perfect movie: it has humor, romance, action and can be appreciated by the whole family. I still get chills watching the movie and am glad to see that the cast still has so much love for the film and respect for their fans.

[@MunkeeFWRrng]

This movie is by far one of my favorites from my childhood and still remains a favorite even in my adult years. Just an all around perfect casting. It’s glad to see them together again and for André, rest well and know how dearly you are missed. Thanks for the upload.

[@SFsc616171]

10/09/2019 (sniff) I am a 67 y o guy, who saw this with the sweetie of the time ...still a hopeless romantic!!!

[@dizale420]

Brought a tear to my eye! I love that movie, always have, always will!

[@jws1272]

I LOVE how much LOVE that the cast still had for each other after all these years...............do you know what that is? That's a FAMILY!!!

[@henmich]

I cannot imagine that movie without Wallace.... actually, all the casting was amazing... RIP Andre.

[@ragetti911]

Oh I will be showing this movie to my great-grand children and friends with kids. Every generation must know of this classic, hilarious, and charming movie! It was a genius project!

[@marybethnissly4599]

Love Cary Elwes. his episodes in psych are my absolute favorites. Pierre Despereaux the best

[@user-hx7ei9fy8s]

After all these years, the ending still tears my heart out.

[@dillonohlemiller9027]

The entire cast said “this movie is perfect.” And now Hollywood wants to remake it

[@fw1421]

Dillon Ohlemiller NOOOOOO!🙀🙀🙀🙀

[@golfhound]

Making a remake of this is impossible and will bomb at the box office. Especially since almost all of the original actors are alive. Nobody will pay current movie prices to see it.

[@margaritalangdo8972]

No, DO NOT remake this movie. It would ruin the original. Leave it alone. It is perfect the way it is.

[@voiceofreason162]

Hollywood does remakes because they shut out all creativity leaving a vacuum of lifeless polished turds they laughingly call movies. Ten thousand fantastic novels never saw the light of day thanks to Hollywood. They're Golum .."It's my .... Precious."

[@steveradanovich4962]

I'm still in love with Carol Kane!

[@kdfree91]

She's a national treasure! I watched The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt just because I can't get enough of Carol!

[@sadieleonard4503]

Seeing them all together... Its inconceivable.

[@cathmires8990]

Best cast of characters, best lines and the best mix of humor, drama, and romance. What could be better!

[@synesthesia7511]

I saw Wallace Shawn in front of Albertsons and I didn't try and force him to say "inconceivable!" you're welcome little buddy ;)

[@su-rv2uq]

I think it would be really rude to ask people to say lines on command, as they said people do all the time. Actors aren't puppets.

[@mantistoboggan5171]

i'd ask him to say something by james earl jones in star wars, just to see the reaction on his face, whether it's of amusement, or of someone who thinks he is being confronted by a person that mistook him for james earl jones.

[@JamesRDavenport]

Yeah some actors get pissed. I think I heard Bruce Campbell say in an interview once he'd kick a guy's ass if he wouldn't stop shouting at him to say This Is My Boomstick! "I ain't your monkey!"

[@JadeRaven0588]

One of my all time favorite movies

[@clintmurray9815]

Yeah, me too. Watched with four of my grandkids separately and once all of us. We all loved this movie and I never got tired of it. My tears were for the grandkids I miss, and when I think of this movie I see them as they were then.

[@TBomb15]

In all the years of cinema there have been five movies that are rated the most timeless the most classic, this one left them all behind.

[@HighFalutinTootin]

Robyn and Carol are still so beautiful ❤

[@tomw8319]

that really is a timeless film….and it's one the whole family can enjoy together. They don't make them like that anymore.

[@sparklemotion1018]

When I was a kid, my whole family - aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents included - saw "Princess Bride" in the movie theater together because my uncle loved the book and he insisted we'd all love the movie... needless to say, he was right! It was after we finished the mid-day meal and clean-up on Thanksgiving Day 1987 (we're not a football-watching family). We were a big group: 21 people of 3 generations, including nine kids under age 11. I remember being shocked at the high price of the movie tickets: at our theater they'd just hit $5 per adult, so this was an expensive outing - it cost more than $100 for 21 people! And that didn't include popcorn or Junior Mints! (Shocked to compare this with current prices: I saw "Roma" this weekend at a fancy Landmark theater in NYC: adult tickets there are $18.50 each, and that's just for the movie: there's no imax or 3D surcharge.)

[@Shane-Singleton]

Every so often you get a cast that is so into their work as a team on a project that it still shows almost 30 years later. I love this movie. I love those who starred in it. This is the way.

[@ejf0255]

The best movie of the 80s. Andre is surely missed. Easy to watch anytime it is on.

[@blyxx7450]

One of the few movies I went to see twice as a child. "As you wish." 😊

[@DaDitka]

I remember someone telling the following story about Rob Reiner and Andre- Rob wanted Andre to play Fezzik, that was his absolute first choice. His concern, however, was that being French, he didn't think that Andre would know any English and he would have problems when it came to reciting lines as well as communication in general. But Rob also thought that Andre, being a giant, would be super strong and therefore the physical stunts would be easily handled by Andre. When Reiner met Andre, he discovered that Andre was the complete opposite of what he thought Andre would be. Andre, despite his low voice and thick accent, could not only speak and understand English, but could do so fluently. He had zero problem speaking or being understood. However, because of the disease he had which kept him growing up to the day he died (acromegaly), his back was so weak that he couldn't lift anything. Many of the stunts and shots they took with Andre being something was actually set up so Andre didn't have to hold anything. Remember at the end of the movie when Fezzik found the four white horses and the group was going to get away from Humperdinck? Remember when Fezzik caught Buttercup as she jumped from the tower? They had it set up so Robin Wright was only around two or three feet suspended in the aid, and she, all 130lb at the very most, landed in Andre's arms. That in of itself was almost enough to cause Andre to fall. His health really was in decline at that time, and that's just too bad. I may have details about this wrong, and if I do, by all means correct me. It's been years since I heard that story and it is very likely I have details wrong.

[@shan4883]

So amazing seeing this reunion again! I have a feeling Cary and Robin had crushes on eachother in that movie, especially after she said she thought he was so cute! lol I was hoping to see Fred Savage for the reunion. He was in everything growing up!

[@steveharris1740]

shan4883 Wonder Years, The Boy Who Could Fly, Vice Versa, The Wizard. If you grew up in the 80,s you grew up with Fred Savage.

[@snowsadventure57]

If you read Cary's book "As You Wish" it's very apparent this two where absolutely smitten with each other. It's adorable

[@joshuabrooks4907]

Peter Falk is missing from this reunion too.

[@highpsi11]

It will never get old. It's one of those note-perfect movies where you wouldn't change a single thing.

[@HonestHuck777]

Aaaand the SOUNDTRACK...... they all look so great!!! And yep it is definitely a favourite!!!🦋💐⚘💖🌞🌈

[@guittadabe5214]

Billy Crystal, still the funniest person in any room! May God continue to bless him for putting a smile on the face of so many in the world, unlike the so-called comedians who nowadays do nothing but divide us through their politics.
