 Interesting Questions, Facts, and Information
 Goldman, William
He gained a pound his first afternoon out of the womb. Babies usually lose three or four ounces, and it takes them a week or so to gain it back.
Take his brain away. Westley would think of Buttercup. Her autumn hair, her perfect skin...
Bastia. Bastia was the only person designated as a Wizard until Inigo came around.
Sandy Sterling. I wonder if Ilene liked the starlet story.
Arabian Garstini. Though shorter than the African Rock Python and lighter than the Orinoco Anaconda, the Arabian Garstini was quicker and more ravenous than either of them.
Rabies. Don't try telling a Turk that the fruit bat from Indonesia is the biggest in the world.
She was baldheaded. When Humperdinck found out, he said, 'Madam, feel free to flee!'
A French scullery maid named Annette. Annette worked in Paris for the Duke and Duchess de Guiche, and had a weakness for chocolate.
Horse. Buttercup was never long on imagination.
Yeste. Yeste, the famous swordmaker, lived in Madrid.
Buttercup's Baby: S. Morgenstern's Glorious Examination of Courage Matched Against the Death of the Heart. 'Buttercup's Baby' is most likely never going to be finished. Goldman says he's happy with the first chapter, but has no plans to continue it. Also, part of the first chapter is borrowed from another novel of his, 'Control'.
Potion ladler. Valerie never was a witch, but every Miracle Man needed one, so she let him call her a witch in public, and learned enough of the witch trade to pass herself off as one under pressure.
Mongolia. Their last words to him were, 'We've done everything we can for you, Fezzik, good luck'.
Greenland. Greenland was the loneliest place on earth, with one person for every twenty square miles of real estate.
A giant oak. I guess the giant oaks that auditioned for the part in the movie didn't have the right qualities, so the director went in another direction, casting a boulder instead.
Hammersmith. Hammersmith was 'this little lump of land attached to the rear of King Lotharon's holdings'.
80 pounds. I don't think they exist.
Go back to the beginning. Fool! Fool! Back to the beginning is the rule!
Wild dog. The Machine took seven times as many years off of the dog.
Seven. The king bats can't be too big if Inigo had seven on his sword, huh?
Nothing, he shuts the door in her face.. Poor Buttercup must have felt pretty rejected! Little did she know that Westley really had been waiting all those years just for her!
Inigo. This scene was touching because Domingo's last thoughts were of his son.
Count Rugen's wife. Buttercup got jealous of Rugen's wife when she saw her go with Westley for a tour of the farm. This is also when she noticed how studly Westley really was.
Cover it. By doing this Inigo lasted through the duel.
Because Vizzini told him to go there if something went wrong. Vizzini told Inigo and Fezzik that if a job went wrong, they were supposed to go back to the beginning, and the Thieves' Forrest was where they got the job, so it was the beginning for them. Vizzini was supposed to meet him there, but of course, he was dead.
"Dammit, woman! You are the property of the Dread Pirate Roberts!". So, Westley wasn't always sensitive. Could he have been an effective Dread Pirate Roberts otherwise? I don't think so.
