Movie Night

The Princess Bride is one of Claire's favourite movies.  So when a film version arrived in the latest donation box, she dug out the ancient projector, attached a sheet to the bookcase, and they all settled down for a Movie Night!

Watching The Princess Bride

Claire thinks the movie is about Wesley and Buttercup, and the power of true love....

Hello!  My Name is Inigo Montoya!

Everyone else thinks the movie was about Inigo.  This is the sight that Claire came back to after putting away the movie: Five in a line brandishing toy swords, and three of them yelling, in synch  "Hello!  My name is Inigo Montoya!  You kill my father!  Prepare to die!"

...this was not the sort of lesson she thought they'd get from watching the movie.  ;)

And I'd say she's got about zero chance of getting this lot to bed anytime soon!

  1. Lol! I totally get it...
    We watched Harry Potter #1 for the first time (after finishing the book, of course) tonight. My kid is too excited to sleep now also but it's wand waving, not sword brandishing, that's keeping her up :)
    Good luck, Claire!

    1. Harry Potter is definitely another good one that to keep a person up and having fun! LOL

      I hope you had better luck than Claire with the bedtime!

    1. Thanks for the kind words! I think Claire is going to regret this movie for days....the sword-fighting alone! LOL
