Man, this was a beautiful analysis. Its so cool to see how literary and charming the language in the acreenplay itself was. Like. “This is the start of one of the greatest cinematic swordfights ever (the other comes later).” **THAT** is how you set up stakes, like DAMN!
Goldman’s set up for the knife fight in “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid” is also really great. But this one in the Princess Bride is really something special.
Thanks for the upload. This was entertaining and informative about screenplays. I love Princess Bride the movie and cast.
Like a whole new chapter to the existing story!
"Everything I know about Bill Goldman is that he was a wonderful, humble man that disliked his own writing very much. Which all the more made him try harder."
"Humperdinck catches up with them at the midpoint... right in the middle of the movie..." Also at the midpoint of this video!
"Structure is primary. The beginning is around 25% of the whole. The middle is about 50% of the whole. And the end is 25%."
Who can watch this and not want to rewatch the movie? Glad it's on both Hulu and Disney.
Gotta love it
"The truth is we're catering to the directors."
They shot the horse ending but did not use it
Thank you-from a budding screenplay writer.
