Welcome to Season Nine of So Many Sequels! We are kicking off the new year—and "Rob Reiner Month"—with a look at one of the most beloved films of all time: The Princess Bride (1987).
In this episode, we admit where we were wrong ("I was dumb") and break down why this movie’s initial box office struggle didn't stop it from becoming a cult phenomenon. Join us as we analyze Rob Reiner’s authentic direction, the "perfect" sword fight between Westley and Inigo Montoya, and how the film’s framing device changes the entire narrative.
In this episode:
Why the box office numbers lied about this movie's quality.
The genius of casting Andre the Giant and Wallace Shawn.
How the "fairy tale" genre was reinvented with humor.
Our final ratings on the "Timeless" scale.
