I love this film! Although there was a moment of horror last year when my sister and I discovered that our father - a man in his seventies - had never seen it. That sad fact has since been corrected. I don't know how many times I've seen The Princess Bride myself, but it's been a lot. So naturally, this book went on my list of things to read.

It was fun. There's something very chatty about the tone, and I enjoyed the stories of Elwes's time making the movie, especially as I didn't know any of the behind-the-scenes events that he writes about. I'm tempted to look up the movie again, just to watch the scene filmed right after he broke his toe, and apparently there are out-takes on YouTube. Why have I never looked?!

I'm going to look right now.
