By the way, the Cannes film festival released a statement filled with harsch criticisms of Paulo Branco :

Good to see the Cannes statement is making the rounds in the press:
Variety: http://variety.com/2018/film/news/cannes-presses-ahead-terry-gilliam-don-quixote-legal-woes-1202791700/
Deadline: http://deadline.com/2018/04/cannes-response-don-quixote-movie-legal-action-terry-gilliam-1202379217/
Indiewire: http://www.indiewire.com/2018/04/cannes-responds-don-quixote-lawsuit-terry-gilliam-1201958815/
It's no coincidence that the 2nd trailer and the Cannes statement were released today (not to mention Gilliam's recent Facebook post and tweet about needing the fans' support). Gilliam and Co. are gearing up to do battle with Branco, and I think he's about to get steamrolled by Quixote.
RE: The Making of Quixote - cclark - 04-30-2018
The official Quixote YouTube Channel has uploaded the new trailer with English intertitles & subtitles.

The new trailer looks brilliant, and at least we get to know a bit more about the plot now. As for the Cannes statement, they've thrown down the gauntlet there, the seventh paragraph sums up Branco for the bully he truly is. and they've truly lost patience with him. We'll have to wait and see what happens.
Empire magazine posted about the trailer, and they claim Amazon is still involved: https://www.empireonline.com/people/terry-gilliam/new-trailer-terry-gilliam-man-killed-don-quixote/ What's going on?
RE: The Making of Quixote - cclark - 05-01-2018
Good question. Amazon is still listed on the IMDb page:

Paulo Branco and lawyers hit back over 'Don Quixote' dispute:
https://www.screendaily.com/news/paulo-branco-and-lawyers-hit-back-over-don-quixote-dispute/5128710.article?referrer=RSS
What a complete egomaniac Paulo Branco is. Just read this statement by his lawyer:
Quote:“The Cannes Film Festival also clearly forgets that without the producers, who take all the economic risks, neither the films nor the festival would exist,” read the statement. “For sixteen years from 2000 to 2016, Terry Gilliam did not find any producer willing to revive his project. If this film exists today, it is thanks to the work and investments made by Alfama Films Production and Paulo Branco, when no one believed in this film anymore.”
If this film exists today, it is because of Gilliam's own determination, and he was lucky to work with better producers.
RE: The Making of Quixote - bruttenholm - 05-01-2018
The Branco statement is full of lies, saying that he was the only producer who dared touch the project when in fact he was granted an option on the screenplay by Jeremy Thomas (who paid to get the rights back from the insurance company in 2008 and therefore was involved in every trial to revive the project since then) is beyond ironic.
