As the U.S. Senate, House of Representatives, and the President are going down to the wire trying to avoid the dreaded “fiscal cliff,” here is a reminder how some folks can work together to overcome cliffs. In this video, Mandy Patinkin (who played Inigo Montoya) gives a behind-the-scenes look at the Cliffs of Insanity scene from Director Rob Reiner’s classic The Princess Bride (1987). In the video, Patinkin describes how the wonderful André the Giant helped Wallace Shawn overcome his fears.
If these guys can overcome the Cliffs of Insanity, I hope our politicians can handle a little Cliffs of Fiscal.
What is your favorite scene from The Princess Bride? Leave your two cents in the comments.
