Writing Lessons: The Princess Bride and delivering on promises
The last time I watched Rob Reiner’s The Princess Bride (originally aired in 1987), I was prooooooobably nine years ago. That was twenty-five years ago. I wasn’t sure what I was expecting this time around—my memory of the film is hazy, flashes of images at best without a name to put to any character.
I have learned that her name is Princess Buttercup. That surprised me.
But you can be sure I remembered one throughout the years: Inigo Montoya.
