I had never heard of it until 2005, when I was sharing my classroom for one period with another teacher. I just stayed in it while she taught her class. She showed the movie and I started watching it and got hooked. I think I enjoyed it even more than her kids. As a matter of fact, I just bought a DVD of it in one of those $5 Wal Mart bins.
Surprisingly, the kid Peter Falk was reading the story to, Fred Savage, of "The Wonder Years" fame was not there.
I always though the addled, speech-challenged clergyman who officiated the wedding ceremony was one of the members of Monty Python, but it was Peter Cook.
Some more great quotes:
Count Ruger, the six-fingered-- "Stop saying that!"
Fezzik, "You've been mostly dead all day."
Valerie to Miracle Max, "I'm not a witch, I'm your wife."
Yellun: "I have no gate key."
Inigo, "Fezzik, tear his arms off!"
Yellum, "Oh, you mean this gate key."
No Doubt, This Was One Funny Movie. --Cooter
