Inconceivable! This week, The Princess Bride. Rob Reiner’s classic film full of action, adventure, pirates, giants, sword fights and yes even a little kissing. A staple of my childhood that has grown more beloved over time: its sincere embrace of love and friendship, its playful deconstruction of heroic myths, and the way its humour never undercuts its heart is what cements this into a classic. It’s an episode about storytelling itself the kind passed down, rewatched, and recited by heart ending, of course, as all great love stories should...as you wish.
