3.Mandy Patinkin had recently lost his father to cancer when he started filming and has said when he said, “Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die,” that he felt like he was talking to cancer. Patinkin said, “The minute I read the script, I knew, I said to [my wife], I said, ‘I’m going to do this part because in my mind if I get the six-fingered guy, that means I killed the cancer that killed my dad, and I’ll get to visit my dad.”
