Who won the movie
Andre the Giant and Wallace Shawn
Dion Waiters Award
Chris Sarandon
Most Rewatchable Scene · 18:16
David Shoemaker: The film’s tight pace and lack of excess make almost the entire story rewatchable.
Juliet Litman: The sequence from Wesley reaching the cliffs through his three bad-guy showdowns is the preferred stretch.
The Neil McCauley “A Book about Metals” Award for Best Line from the Movie · 40:13
David Shoemaker: The recognizable “My name is Inigo Montoya” introduction wins because its context makes the reference immediate; the full canonical continuation awaits audio verification.

In the order the hosts got to it. Open a row for the discussion.
The run from Westley reaching the cliffs through his three successive showdowns
The obviously artificial outdoor sets and rocks age worst, followed by the all-white cast.
The timeless theatrical style, tactile roughness, Robin Wright, and the Fire Swamp danger
Chris Sarandon is a near-candidate, but Cary Elwes is declared at his career apex as Westley.
Danny Trejo is accepted for a remake, preferably as Fezzik or another intimidating figure who proves warm.
Andre the Giant and Wallace Shawn
