Cary Elwes, Billy Crystal, Wallace Shawn, Chris Sarandon, Robin Wright and Carol Kane got together for a 'Princess Bride' reunion that aired Friday on 'Good Morning America' (weekdays, 9AM ET on ABC). The cast reminisced about the '80s cult comedy classic, told some funny stories about their late friend and co-star Andre the Giant, and re-lived the experience of shooting the film.

Billy Crystal explained what he thought was the secret to 'The Princess Bride's' enduring appeal. "Great screenplay, it was the perfect cast, the perfect director, it's the perfect movie for us. For me, I'm so proud to be in it with everybody," Crystal said, as they all joined hands.

If I were an executive at CBS, I would never want to do business with actor Mandy Patinkin again. Even though Mandy is a terrific actor and one of my personal favorites -- I loved him on Broadway in Evita and Sunday in the Park with George, not to mention on screen in The Princess Bride and Yentl -- his history with CBS is abominable.

He was an Emmy-winning star on Chicago Hope, then left after a couple of seasons to be closer to his family in New York. Okay, that was understandable. Then after getting Criminal Minds off to a great start, he walked out of that show, citing creative differences.

Apparently, someone has said let bygones be bygones because Mandy Patinkin will be a guest star on Three Rivers. Maybe because this is a very personal issue with Mandy, he's convinced the powers that be to let him return to the network, albeit for just a guest appearance.
