The Princess Bride: Behind the Scenes (Are You S!#ing Me?)

from Are You Sh!#ing Me? · host Are You Sh!#ing Me? - Podcast

A 1987 flop about a farm boy, a giant, and a Sicilian swordsman became one of the most quotable movies ever made. Here's why that almost didn't happen.It made $25.5 million. Ranked 41st at the box office that year. By every normal metric, it flopped.Then VHS happened — and it became immortal.Behind the camera was a different story: a giant who physically couldn't lift anyone, a leading man who filmed half the movie secretly in agony, an actor genuinely knocked unconscious on set, and a sword fight so good it was choreographed by the guy behind Darth Vader's lightsaber duels.This is Are You Shitting Me? — something I learned while avoiding real responsibilities. Hope you're drinking a beer.🎧 New episodes every week or so. Subscribe so you never miss the next "wait, WHAT?" story.
