Andre the Giant deserves to be remembered as Andre the GENTLE giant. I heard nothing but sweet stories about him over the years. If there is an afterlife, he is spending it pain-free with happy children climbing him like a tree and laughing.

Pilgrim4now, it's not yet 6am, I'm not particularly looking forward to the day ahead of me, and I have to say, reading your comment I started laughing. I can fully visualize that priest/bishop and remember the exact intonation in which he said those lines, and gosh that was one of the funniest parts (among many) of the movie.
I know I know ! How was he able to say that without cracking up. So serious , so somber he looks at Humperdink and Buttercup and with all seriousness opens his mouth and intones , " mawwige" . The SINGLE funniest thing ive ever seen
A friend of mine got married in 1992. driving to the wedding a friend and I thought it would be a great joke to break the tension, if we could get the minister to start with 'mawige' but we were running late and just slipped into the church. The minister came out AND ACTUALLY HAD THAT SPEECH IMPEDIMENT . My friend and i just sat there, smothering laughs, not daring to look at each other as snorts leaked out. God it was painful.
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 think he should play him in a biopic. With grey hair, he'd look more like Clinton than Dennis Quaid (although Quaid did a good job with the voice too)
knowing she wanted take 57 for the final kiss scene makes my heart explode. that's just makes the movie even better. and as you wish and make anyone's heart melt
Her body language with him is so sweet, they lean into one another but especially her. Guess you really can't take away that magical feeling they probably felt filming together no matter how much time has passed.
Forget 57 takes! ONE kiss from Robin Wright would fulfill my life totally. That's an invite, Robin....you heartbreaker, you! But then if I thought my heart could stand it, I'd go for the 57...
I love Danny Divito, but honestly I don't think he could have pulled off a better job than wallace did. The charecter would have been perceived so much more different. Always my favorite movie of all time
Yeah, Danny has a toughness to him that wouldn’t have made the role work. The combination of Vizzini’s overconfident nature combined with how whiny and bitchy Wallace played him made for such a wonderful result.
I loved that movie and watched it with every grandkid who lived in town when they were old enough to appreciate it. That's four times and maybe more. For my birthday one year all four of them spent the night at my house and we watched it again.
My mom and her best friend took me to see this in the theater when I was 4 years old. I remember knowing it was a movie set in "old times" and like a fairytale so I remember being confused when it opened up in modern times with Fred Savage, his 80s bedroom and Peter Falk. I even wondered if we were in the wrong theater lol. Cary Elwes became my first crush and he still looks good in 2020. We loved the movie so much we went back to see it 3 more times this time taking my 2 older brothers who were 6 and 10. Became a childhood favorite of ours for awhile.
For the first 8 years of her life, whenever my daughter asked me for something that she was allowed to have, my answer was always "As you wish." When she was 8 we watched the movie. One of the best memories.
Too bad everyone couldn't be here. I'm sure Christopher Guest, Fred Savage and Mandy Patinkin would have loved to have been there if they could. I know that Mandy always speaks fondly of his experience and the ppl he worked with.
Fans of the film still go up to Mandy and ask him to recite the "Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya" line. He's said that he actually enjoys saying it for his fans.
@@MasterAnakinSkyWalker Luckily the internet has produced enough memes that we can have these people say the lines on our phones all the time without them needing to actually do it. I send 5 lines from thsi movie, as gifs, at least once a week.
If your a Princess Bride fan you should see the movie Stardust. Please understand I'm not comparing the two in any way. Stardust just has that Princess Bride feel to it. Plus its just a good movie.
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.
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!!
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!
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.
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.
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!"
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.
I'm actually really glad I got to see that now in 2023 because I don't know how many characters are actually left. Thank you for letting me see this and have a great day!
I went to the Boston Fan Expo last year. Cary Elwes held a panel discussion on his career. He told a story about Andre the Giant that brought the room down. On the first day of shooting they were doing the scene where they are approaching the castle. Wesley has been given the miracle cure but is still out of it. Rob Reiner yelled "Action" Andre let out a 16 second fart and brought production to a standstill." "It could be heard three counties away," "Nobody said anything except Rob, who said 'Are you OK, Andre?' and André replied, 'I am now, boss.' He was comfortable enough to do that!"
This movie will always be my favorite. I will show this to my children and my children's children and I will read the book to them as well. It's a good read and I have a beautiful hardback copy. Give it a read and enjoy yourself.
I just found out about this film and that kiss and I truly believe I have had one of those. I never heard anyone describe a kiss the way I experienced that one until I heard that line!!!
One of the best movies ever. Can quote it 90 to 95%. As a kid until I was 12 every time I was really sick it would be on TV one of those days. Have it on dvd twice, one is an anniversary edition. Best movie ever. One most people I feel love it. It is a classic. I hope they never ruin it by remaking it or making a prequel or sequel of it.
TPB had it all: One of the greatest adventures One of the funniest ever One of the most romantic ever In the future there will be Plays, Broadway musicals and many other works based on this story, but never a movie sequel.
The movie was majestic but it I wouldn't mind some kind of spoof that focused to more of the books comedy. It has some great absurdest humor they couldn't fit in.
Andre was actually just over 7'1" peak height, but to a little guy like Billy Crystal, 7'1"+ 520 lbs may as well be 7'7" 700 lbs. He wouldn't know the difference.
This movie is perfect, any change in casting would've lessened it. Andre is by far my favorite, he was such a natural. RIP Andre, you will not be forgotten.
As close to perfect as a movie could get. Just wish movies were still made like this. A shame the 80's can't have a revival in cinema minus the rubbish special effects that ruin everything today.
The first movies I ever bought: The Princess Bride, & Willow. Both are classics with my family! "No more rhymes now, I mean it! Anybody want a peanut?" Good stuff!
I was working at the theater as a projectionist when this was out, although after I started, the movie was about 2-3 weeks into it's run, so it was on one of the smaller screens at the time. We still got a few people for some of the later shows, but never a whole lot. Because of the timing, I would have to check on it around where count rugan runs off, and keep the volume on the monitor slightly up as I went to work on some other films that were shutting down or needed to be started. I would get to watch the very ending where Robin jumps down, floats down really, into andre's arms, and Indigo laments about all he knows about is revenge, at which point westly suggests a possible career change. From there the movie ends fairly quickly, mainly because the credits didn't run for another 5+ minutes back in those days, and I liked getting the movies back up and ready to go right after they finish. Ahhh, the old platter days.
The way that happened was that while they were filming, the Beaujolais Nouveau for that year came out, and Andre' got a case, and finished about half of it. There's something about it on the new "features" on the Blu. What they just ended up doing was covering him up and letting him sleep it off right there.
One thing about Andre's drinking had to do with the pain he dealt with- back surgery notwithstanding, he had a legitimate growth disorder. He endured immense pain- and sadly, alcohol could only take the edge off. I can understand that, to a point
My brother and I were talking that fall of movies we'd seen. When I mentioned this one, he derisively said "that's a little kid's movie." I said ( and still believe ),"it's one of the best all ages movies ever. Months later , using a rented VCR ( ask an older person to explain the term ), 3 brothers watched the movie, each with a monstrous bowl of popcorn on TV tables. During the fire swamp scene, when the ROUS walks across screen ( when Westley is underground rescuing Buttercup ), my brother pronounced on what a waste of good special effects it was. I said nothing , waiting for the line ,"rodents of unusual size; I don't believe they exist." The ROUS suddenly attacks, each brother hits his TV table with his knees, and it's snowing popcorn for a second.

He lifted Arnold Schwarzenegger from his armpits to sit on top of a cabinet. Arnold was around 120kg at the time apparently.

... and of course I wish him a heaven with big, beautiful women.
And how could I forget the one I laughed the hardest at "Mawwage is wat bwings us togevva today.....and wuv ...twuu wuv "
Pilgrim4now, it's not yet 6am, I'm not particularly looking forward to the day ahead of me, and I have to say, reading your comment I started laughing. I can fully visualize that priest/bishop and remember the exact intonation in which he said those lines, and gosh that was one of the funniest parts (among many) of the movie.
tweashuh your wuv...
Pilgrim4now how did they get through that scene?!? And so many others...
Pilgrim4now I would love it if the person doing our wedding could imitate that. We’ll conspire together and surprise my groom.
"Have you the wing?"
i wish andre couldve been there
+sal colpitts I bet he was there.
He was there in spirit!
Also no longer with us is Very Impressive Clergyman Peter Cook. The first word out of his mouth--MAWWIAGE--and I'm on the floor.
I know I know ! How was he able to say that without cracking up.
So serious , so somber he looks at Humperdink and Buttercup and with all seriousness opens his mouth and intones , " mawwige" .
The SINGLE funniest thing ive ever seen
A friend of mine got married in 1992. driving to the wedding a friend and I thought it would be a great joke to break the tension, if we could get the minister to start with 'mawige' but we were running late and just slipped into the church. The minister came out AND ACTUALLY HAD THAT SPEECH IMPEDIMENT . My friend and i just sat there, smothering laughs, not daring to look at each other as snorts leaked out. God it was painful.

cary's Clinton impression was almost perfect
Absolutely perfect, I'd say!
I think he should play him in a biopic. With grey hair, he'd look more like Clinton than Dennis Quaid (although Quaid did a good job with the voice too)
Watch the other 40 minute video of his Google interview. Dude casually does like four other perfect impersonations
he does fantastic impressions
truly impressive
knowing she wanted take 57 for the final kiss scene makes my heart explode. that's just makes the movie even better. and as you wish and make anyone's heart melt
So? We can have feelings
Her body language with him is so sweet, they lean into one another but especially her. Guess you really can't take away that magical feeling they probably felt filming together no matter how much time has passed.
Devon Foley What woman in her right mind wouldn't?
Forget 57 takes! ONE kiss from Robin Wright would fulfill my life totally. That's an invite, Robin....you heartbreaker, you! But then if I thought my heart could stand it, I'd go for the 57...
I wish they had panned a little bit more on his facial reaction when she said adorable and sexy he was... I just want to know if he was blushing.
One of the best love stories ever, set as a playful comedy. And a love story for grandfather and grandsons. It still touches my heart.
I love Danny Divito, but honestly I don't think he could have pulled off a better job than wallace did. The charecter would have been perceived so much more different. Always my favorite movie of all time
that would have been inconceivable
Levi Coffey very
We HAD to have the lisp man...that made it even better! I love when they cast people with challenges and they use it to make the role even better!
Yeah, Danny has a toughness to him that wouldn’t have made the role work. The combination of Vizzini’s overconfident nature combined with how whiny and bitchy Wallace played him made for such a wonderful result.
@Lacey Canaday, Danny Devito was the actor that the director originally wanted to cast as Vizzini according to the above video clip.

Uh.... no one has fond memories of working with Mandy, especially the Princess Bride people.
It’s the closest thing to a perfect movie That exists.
IT IS PERFECT!!!!
Almost as good as Star Wars or Saturday Night Fever
Galaxy Quest would like to have a word.
If your a Princess Bride fan you should see the movie Stardust. Please understand I'm not comparing the two in any way. Stardust just has that Princess Bride feel to it. Plus its just a good movie.
I agree both are adult fairy tales
It's not bad for a modern film . Michelle is an underrated actress.
Yeah those are my two favorite movies
Stardust is a GREAT movie. Ironically, it's next to Princess Bride on my shelf.
And if you take Mandy Patinkin from Princess Bride, and Claire Danes from Stardust, you get the cast of Homeland.
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.
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!!!
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.

Nice to see they fondly remembering Andre! (Even today!) He was a great man not only in size!
Christopher Guest is sorely missed here.
+lmiddleman "....stop SAYING that!!" ---- a great delivery and he had soooo many great lines and brilliant delivery in the movie.
"Now...how do you feel?"
Westly: "mmmmm"
"Interesting...."
Well , if you don’t have your health ; you haven’t got anything ! 😂
Best cast of characters, best lines and the best mix of humor, drama, and romance. What could be better!

It will never get old. It's one of those note-perfect movies where you wouldn't change a single thing.
Brought a tear to my eye! I love that movie, always have, always will!
The best movie of the 80s. Andre is surely missed. Easy to watch anytime it is on.
I saw Wallace Shawn in front of Albertsons and I didn't try and force him to say "inconceivable!" you're welcome little buddy ;)
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.
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.
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!"
Love Cary Elwes. his episodes in psych are my absolute favorites. Pierre Despereaux the best
36 years now and still holds up.
That Andre story was hilarious.
lordcrumb07 absolutely. even the one before it. what a nice funny guy.
They just left him there until he woke up.
Sort of like the question, where does a grizzly bear sleep? Any place he wants!
What scares me is I'm 58 and that leaves me only 20 more years to watch this.
No worries, my friend. Death cannot stop true movie love. All it can do is delay it for a while.
Besides, you might live to 100.
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.
One of the very best movies ever with a amazing cast
7 years later this is suddenly being recommended to me.
We're still talking about this movie.
Why?
Because it's such a great movie!
It hits in my tops 5 favorite movies ever, to this day!
That woman is one one of the most beautiful woman I have seen.
Sancho z God she was stunning.
@@themacocko6311 Still stunning today (I'm watching the new House of Cards season)
Cary Elwes was very beautiful
@@sparklemotion1018 Yes, she still is. But, I loved the younger version just a tad more. Then again, I loved the younger me a tad more as well.
Watched it only yesterday AGAIN.... Great movie 🎥 Great music score, 👌👌👌
seen the movie 5 x and will again ....watch it once again! such wonderful characters!
Cool to see them again...MERCI encore à eux pour la poésie du film et leurs très bons jeu d'acteur.
It has now been 35 years since the Princess Bride premiered and is still loved
Best cast in history on movies ❤
Missing Christopher Guest, Fred Savage and Mandy Patinkin though...
Still loved seeing these people back together.
Closed a 1k tabs on a browser to leave one open, it was this. Made me smile again ;)
I wanted that to be 5 times as long and include Mandy patankin and Christopher guest. And maybe Rob Reiner.
This is my favorite movie, rest in peace Andre, loved you on this movie.
I'm actually really glad I got to see that now in 2023 because I don't know how many characters are actually left. Thank you for letting me see this and have a great day!
Love this movie. Watch it every time it's on
My favorite movie of all time. I absolutely love it!

Just finished watching it, again. As someone said before, don't re-make this amazing film. But a part two? Yes please! With mostly the same cast!
This must of been the only 80s film I have never seen,so will have to watch it somtime
Oh wow, you have been denied a viewing pleasure of unparalleled enjoyment.
That’s almost hard to believe. Yes you definitely need to watch it. I watch it on average if at least once a month. It is a truly great movie.
This movie will always be my favorite. I will show this to my children and my children's children and I will read the book to them as well. It's a good read and I have a beautiful hardback copy. Give it a read and enjoy yourself.
I just found out about this film and that kiss and I truly believe I have had one of those. I never heard anyone describe a kiss the way I experienced that one until I heard that line!!!
I loved every second of that!! Thanks for the trip down memory lane!!
Oh yes, this movie it's a classic I love it, I could watch it over-- have-- over and over again... :))
One of the best movies ever. Can quote it 90 to 95%. As a kid until I was 12 every time I was really sick it would be on TV one of those days.
Have it on dvd twice, one is an anniversary edition.
Best movie ever. One most people I feel love it. It is a classic. I hope they never ruin it by remaking it or making a prequel or sequel of it.
I loved it then, and adore it now💕🤗
billy crystal is such a great story teller
This clip was INCONCEIVABLE
TPB had it all:
One of the greatest adventures
One of the funniest ever

I have always had the movie from Vhs to dvd.
I've never watched this movie more times than I could count......
This is the only movie ever made that appeals to everyone
Classic puts it lightly. Masterpiece fits it better I think.
Love them all, and one of the best flicks ever.
Wow the best show ever!
The first movies I ever bought: The Princess Bride, & Willow. Both are classics with my family!
"No more rhymes now, I mean it! Anybody want a peanut?" Good stuff!
Brilliant movie. It's a telling of a fairy tale where the actors were so well cast and made it belieavable. Truly brilliant filmmaking.
one of the greatest movies- for young or old
The good in the world is represented in laughter and kindness
We could use more movies like this.
WHO would down vote ANY thing to do with The Princess Bride, I ask u? Shame, Shame.
Awhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! My Favorite. The perfect movie!

It's both amusing and sad the number of separate anecdotes that exist about Andre passing out drunk in public.
The way that happened was that while they were filming, the Beaujolais Nouveau for that year came out, and Andre' got a case, and finished about half of it. There's something about it on the new "features" on the Blu. What they just ended up doing was covering him up and letting him sleep it off right there.
