In this episode we talk about how to write a great sword fight for stage, screen and literature, including these two classic scenes:
Inigo and Westley in The Princess Bride
The first duel in The Duellists
Sebastien’s ulterior motive for coming on the podcast was to ask Guy’s opinion on how a rapier might be modified to contain a pistol. Have a listen and see if you agree or have a better idea of how it could be done.
