How this moron was ever involved in “The Princess Bride” is a mystery. I wonder how much better that movie would have been without him.
He made a number of entertaining films early in his career. Spinal Tap, Stand by Me, When Harry Met Sally, Misery...
Lots of Hollywood morons manage to make good films. I think it’s that whole left brain/right brain divide. Just because you have creative genius doesn’t mean you have enough critical thinking skills to tie your own shoelaces.
