It is from a book (she wrote somewhat snootily): The Princess Bride.
It was made into a very nice, but necessarily less glorious movie, and the
line is delivered by Mandy Patinkin, who does a great job of being Inigo
Montoya.

The other famous (and up to that point only famous I know) Inigo is Inigo
Jones, who was a set designer and architect and artistic engineer in the 17th
century, associated with Ben Jonson, and a VERY fascinating type of
participatory theatre called a masque.

Dan Vilter's turn. (Or anyone else can take it, too...)

Mandy Patinkin does an absolutely AMAZING job of being Inigo Montoya. The
only problem was that he didn't have a single song, the whole movie through.
;)

Hey, does anyone know if Buttercup's Baby is ever coming out? Or has it,
and I missed it? I read a one chapter exerpt from it a while ago, in the
back of a copy of PB, and it ended with Fezzik and Waverly both in midair
after leaping/being thrown off a cliff.

Cacie has seen the movie a zillion times... I've decided that certain
lines in certain books and movies are like secret signs and countersigns
to unschoolers, we could use them to find each other in crowds...so, I'd
say, "Fezzik, are there rocks ahead?" and you would reply...?

Dar, who has read the book but never seen the movie

I chortled. I giggled. I sighed and smiled. Nobody here to share it with.


Sandra, still laughing, and Marty in the next room and all, but he wouldn't
think it was funny

Let me see, if I remember my theatre history... Yep. Inigo was quite the
theatrical artist. Since I studied design for theatre (not history where I
got some of my lowest grades), I know of him for his design work, costumes,
sets, and most of all effects. He just loved those effects. Exploding staffs
of silk anything, pyrotechnics, reversing costumes, concealed doors and
traps. I lot of what we see today in magicians acts were originally stylized
by Inigo way back in the early 1600s. If you look him up in the history
books I'm sure they would talk about his architecture. I think he was
architect to the king or someone really important.

These masques started off as a kind of costume ball of ceremonial dances
that went crazy and eventually was presented at court and in public
theatres. The more attention one could gather at a social event the better
chance at whatever you would have with the court. So Inigo perfected how to
get attention. I guess it paid off in his architecture career. He could
design sets, costumes, and to a small degree-lighting, he wrote many of the
elaborate masques, directed and even performed in them . You might even call
him a ......Renaissance Man... <G>
