Broadway legend Mandy Patinkin has compared Israel’s ongoing offensive in Gaza to his Princess Bride hero’s so-called “revenge business.”
Patinkin, 72, is best known for his role in the 1987 family classic as Spanish swordsman Inigo Montoya, whose life’s mission is to avenge the murder of his father by Count Tyrone Rugen. Montoya repeatedly tells his perceived enemies in the comedy: “My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.”
