“And so, you can talk to your dad anytime you want, anywhere you want,” he said before adding. Patinkin gently told Webb she could speak to her father, as well. “That moment was coming, and I went and I played that scene with Chris, and then I went back out there and talked to my dad,” Patinkin said. Patinkin shared his memory of the famous scene. “The minute I read the script, I knew, I said to Kath, I said, ‘I’m going to do this part because in my mind, if I get the six-fingered guy, that means I killed the cancer that killed my dad and I’ll get to visit my dad.” I went outside in this castle and walked around and I kept talking to my dad. “First of all, your dad is taking care of you,” he said.

In his response video, Patinkin said the rumor is true - while fighting back tears of his own. Ever since then, it’s kind of really stuck with me.” “I saw on the internet the rumor that when Mandy Patinkin said that line, he was thinking of his own father who had passed away from cancer,” Webb said. Webb recalls the scene in which Inigo Montoya is told by the six-fingered Count Rugen in a duel that Rugen will give him anything he wants if Montoya will spare his life, to which Montoya replies, “I want my father back, you son of a bitch.” Patinkin choked back tears as he shared a deeply personal story behind a famous line in “The Princess Bride.” The fan posted the video and shared that she was grieving the loss of her father, who loved the film.
