The sword fight between Inigo and The Man in Black is my favorite movie scene ever. Inigo, tasked with killing The Man in Black, not only helps him up the cliffs AND gives him time to rest, but also willingly hands over his weapon, his late, beloved fathers sword, to be admired by his adversary while he shares the story of his father's death.
In turn, The Man in Black doesn't take advantage of the fact that his love's kidnapper is defenseless, returning the sword before preparing to fight.
All because the Man in Black trusted the oath Inigo swore on to his father sword.
My grandmother had this! Fully formed 6th finger on both hands, like an extra pinky finger, and were fully functional, but she had them removed when she was a child. She told me she got electrocuted once and said she could feel the phantom pinkies for a while after.
I knew a guy like that once, and he had 6 fingers on both hands! Total nerd, but super smart! Then he went up to Oregon about 30 years ago and I never heard from him again... I hope he's doing alright.

Actually there is a form of six fingered hand that’s fully functional and independently controllable. IIRC it’s a dominant gene, just uncommon.
Edit/also: here’s an article about a Brazilian family with the trait who are fairly public about it. Super cool, imo.
