The Princess Bride: Drink In Patinkin

This week on Podstruck we are celebrating our 100th episode with the movie that feels like the perfect fairy tale ending to season two: The Princess Bride (1987)! We dive into why Rob Reiner's endlessly quotable classic nails fantasy, adventure, comedy, and romance all at once, debate whether Westley is really Buttercup's true love since she doesn't recognize him with a tiny mask on, and rave about Mandy Patinkin's Oscar worthy performance as Inigo Montoya! So great in fact, Elena didn't realize it was Mandy Patinkin until this recording! We question the age make-up on Peter Falk, and Miracle Max all while trying not to say "Inconceivable!" every five minutes. We also celebrate the legendary cast including Cary Elwes, Robin Wright, Mandy Patinkin, André the Giant, Wallace Shawn, Billy Crystal, Carol Kane, Christopher Guest, and Peter Falk, and discuss why this movie somehow gets funnier every time you watch it.

This episode is perfect for fans of The Princess Bride, Rob Reiner, Cary Elwes, Mandy Patinkin, classic '80s movies, fantasy romance, fairy tales, and of course, romantic comedies!

As this is our 100th episode, we're taking a little summer hiatus to recharge, but don't worry, we will be back in the fall! And if that's too long of a wait, we will still be releasing one bonus episode every month on our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/c/Podstruckpod So if you need your Podstruck fix while we're away, we've got you covered. Thank you for listening, laughing, and arguing with us about romantic comedies for the last 100 episodes. We've loved every minute of it and can't wait to cover even more legendary rom-coms in season 3! As you wish. ❤️
