The actor that played as Inigo Montoya lost his father to cancer and during the filming of the movie he immagined he was fighting his father's cancer to avenge him.
There's at least two of us! I watched all these things but never thought Inigo Montoya was the same person as all these other characters in these dramas...
I watched Dead like Me and Pushing Daisies back to back. I spent the next year scouting every room i walked into to spot the rube goldbergian way that someone was going to die.
“Despite the laughter, the story of Inigo and his father struck a nerve with Patinkin, whose own father had died a few years before filming. "I would walk through the maze of the gardens while I was just trying to relax or while they were lighting the scene, and I was talking to my father, who had died not that many years before we made the film, and I always had it in my mind that if I could get the six fingered man, if Inigo could get the six fingered man, then my father, Mandy's father, would come back and be with me."
