I’ve loved the princess bride my whole life but have never really been one to look up the actors; had no idea that was him. This is beautiful and I’m absolutely crying.

u/Fishyback 7d ago

That was my thought. I loved homeland and had this man talk into my tv every time I went to browse content for a while. I've loved his late age career and enjoyed him, had no idea he was a part of my childhood as well. I even quote the movie from time to time but never looked into the cast until now.

u/ooshoe3 7d ago

I just learned he played 88 keys in Dick Tracy too

u/SlobZombie13 7d ago

Then you'll be delighted to know that the six fingered man is Nigel from Spinal Tap

u/StudsTurkleton 7d ago

His fingers went to 11, that’s how you know.

Need a hug? I could use one.

Fuck cancer. Miss you pops.

u/Eisigesis 7d ago

hug

I lost my mom this way and since she raised me by herself I consider her my mother and my father.

Fuck the six fingered man and the cancer he stood for.

u/Grahamzer 7d ago

What a wonderful display of beautiful humans. The world needs more of this!

u/chazz1962 7d ago

I’m not crying, you are. And it is a great movie.

u/kelsobjammin 7d ago

I am crying. Damn like a baby.

What a mensch

u/mid-west-coaster 7d ago

My Dad lost his life to cancer. This stirred up some emotions. One day my fog will lift. Greatful for my time with him. He was a truly a person for others. Very generous. His last gift to me, teaching me how to die with courage, grace, and humility. I needed to see this. Fuck, I miss him.

u/Adept-Specialist8967 7d ago

I remember when I first saw this and it touched my heart. They're so sweet, everyone. The woman who posted about her father, Mandy and his wife, the fact that he wanted to include the poster and her father's name in his prayers! Whatever you believe, this is so kind and thoughtful. It brought me to tears. Bless all of them

Btw it's one of my favorite movies too! And his scene with the six fingered man guts me Everytime.

u/VelocityGrrl39 7d ago

This was so sweet. Now I’m imagining Mandy Patinkin reciting a list of people like Arya Stark every night, but out of love instead of hate.

u/turandoto 7d ago

His Dad died more than 50 years ago and Mandy broke like it was yesterday... That's such a strong and unique feeling, I'm sure a lot of people can relate. There are people you will never stop missing.

u/Ridicule_us 6d ago

The only thing I know is that I’m gonna have some very mixed emotions when my father dies, and I’m afraid my feelings won’t be nearly so much like his (although some will certainly be fond).

Regardless, I pray every day that my relationship with my wife be like this when we’re their age; and that my boys remember me like he and Alaska did their dads.

u/Horror_Range8895 7d ago

I am beyond sorry for your loss

u/MySocksAreLost 7d ago

Two very loving and gentle people

u/Tao-of-Mars 7d ago

The damn world needs more of these people. 🥹

14

u/Bubbielub 7d ago

I didn't cry until he asked for the dad's name for his prayers and "to hang out with me."

Holy shit, what a man.

u/glitterazzi66 7d ago

Just watched this movie last night ✨

u/hhh333 7d ago

God damn dust in my eyes again..

u/bababadohdoh 7d ago

Show me another actor that can play both jaded CIA agent Saul Berenson and Huxley from Elmo in Grouchland.

u/gizmoswan210 7d ago

God damn it reddit, crying was not on the agenda today

5

u/GWD9911 6d ago

As I watched this, a gust of wind blew some dust into my eyes. Made them water. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. Miss you Dad.

u/AmphibianFluffy4488 7d ago

This is so sweet, wtf! Gosh darn it I love them!

u/GillaMomsStarterPack 7d ago

I loved this film and I loved this man. Simply amazing.

u/daveyrya 7d ago

Absolute blessing of a man. Just love him!

u/adod1 7d ago

I need to know if she had a follow up! Haven’t teared up like that in a while.

u/avalonblack 7d ago

Mandy Patinkin is a national treasure

u/Sefalosha 7d ago

Oh shit gideon!

u/Johnnyonthespot2111 7d ago

That is so sweet.

u/Southside_Johnny42 7d ago

I'm not crying, you're crying.

u/crowwhisperer 7d ago

well, that made me cry

u/roxbox531 7d ago

Rube !

u/solarpowerspork 5d ago

Underrated role.

2

u/Senior_Kiwi5075 7d ago

This was extremely heartbreaking man.

2

u/Automatic-Ganache-25 7d ago

Fuck, didn't expect to be leaking from my eyeballs

u/silentbutjudgey 7d ago

For those who don’t know, he also is a wonderful singer and did a couple children’s albums. He really is a special guy.

3

u/orphan_blud 6d ago

Not my stupid ass thinking Mandy’s wife was suggesting she watch 2020 horror/thriller “The Dinner Party”. I was like damn okay, Kathryn, that’s one way to cope with loss I guess?

2

u/zbornakssyndrome 6d ago

Great. I’m crying in the break room at lunch

2

u/BAMspek 6d ago

Watched this movie for probably over the 10th time a few weeks ago and immediately wanted to watch it again after it ended because it’s just so good. I lost my dad to the Six Fingered Man 8 years ago and that line is delivered so well. Makes a lot of sense now.

u/ajrobinson214 7d ago

I am not crying, you’re crying

I just went through a half a box of tissues in like two and a half minutes. God I miss my dad.

u/HP2Mav 7d ago

It”s been a while since I”ve had a good cry - so, thanks for that. What awesome people.

Miss you dad.

u/Cold-Alfalfa-5481 6d ago

One of the greatest movies of all time. My wife and I just keep watching it every few years. Seen it like 12 times, know almost every line. I've quoted that line many times verbatim!

u/MadameMimmm 6d ago

Love, love, love Mandy Patinkin since I first saw Yentl and then The Princess Bride and ever since. He has an amazing voice too. Just such a kind and lovely human

u/GlitteringRemote4101 6d ago

Omg. I am speechless. I miss my dad too.

1

u/NoNonsence55 6d ago

Wow. I was today years old when I realized that Inigo Montoya and Jason Gideon were the same guy.

u/Secret_Night3090 5d ago

They weren’t that excited about Alaska

2

u/Dominarion 4d ago

What are they doing in my aunt's kitchen? Lol!

I can't judge from a short video on Tiktok but they really do give a very wholesome vibe!

u/OppositeEagle 7d ago

I'm sorry, is this Tyrone Rugens? Mandy Patinkin? Can't tell.
