I'm pretty sure watching Westley say "As you wish" to Buttercup healed me of that!Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12429147325673256508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2248881149749925934.post-90172457012345256382009-04-14T18:54:00.000-07:002009-04-14T18:54:00.000-07:00I actually wrote a paper on "The Princess Bride" a...I actually wrote a paper on "The Princess Bride" and its relationship with the Ancient Novel genre in Greece. In the ancient world, novels were considered "medicine" for people who weren't appreciative of love (much like Fred Savage at the beginning of "The Princess Bride"). I noticed that by the end of the movie, the story seemed to heal him of his aversion to love...so you see, you saw him grow up during the movie.<br /><br />I'm a nerd. But on the other hand, I might publish a scholarly article on "The Princess Bride."Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17766871569500570243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2248881149749925934.post-52462311328415780022009-04-14T15:17:00.000-07:002009-04-14T15:17:00.000-07:00Oh I can recite the thing too.

I once found a transcript of the movie online that someone had prepared. I made all the corrections. In my mind, Fred Savage will always first be thought of as the grandson.<br /><br />Lu, I kinda have a crush on him, too. It was pretty sweet to watch him helping the kids roll their eggs and playing basketball with them.Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12429147325673256508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2248881149749925934.post-17049034625705779432009-04-14T11:29:00.000-07:002009-04-14T11:29:00.000-07:00Fred Savage, is the grandson.
