Inconceivable!" Join us for a heartfelt tribute to the legendary Rob Reiner, the man who brought us the world’s most famous "kissing book" and turned rock and roll up to eleven.
Episode Summary:In this special CinemaJam Mini, Sebastian and Pablo mourn the passing of director, actor, and activist Rob Reiner (1947-2025). We explore his incredible range—from the genre-defining mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap to the political drama of A Few Good Men. The heart of the episode is a deep dive into The Princess Bride, a film that rejuvenated the swashbuckler genre and remains a "must-have" on every cinephile's list. We discuss the personal stakes for Mandy Patinkin, the legendary improvisations of Billy Crystal, and why Wesley and Buttercup’s story still resonates decades later.
