Rob Reiner Had to Convince William Goldman to Make 'The Princess Bride'

Yes, he did, because I controlled the book. So I controlled a property. I had bought it back years ago from 20th Century Fox. So by convincing me what happened was we met. And I was convinced of his passion to make it. And he told me what he wanted to do with it. But I hadn't seen anything he'd done. And I went to see Spinal Tap, and I loved it. So that was that.
