The Making of Quixote

[Donald McKinney]

Oscar Jaenada (who plays the gipsy in the film, I think) confirms that the premiere of the film is planned for the next Cannes film festival.

It says that a london court has dismissed Jeremy Thomas's company's claim to cancel the option taken by Paulo Branco on the screenplay. The text concludes by saying that therefore Paulo Branco's company is the sole owner of all the rights regarding the film.

It should be noted that the statement comes from Branco's company so it has to be taken with a pinch of salt, especially the last part... I can't imagine how one company (who by the way did not work on the film) could be the sole owner of every rights on a film.
What I can imagine as the following step is the producers having to pay for the rights on the screenplay, maybe.

As I said, Amazon could step in and offer some panacea or palliative to either make Branco go away or give him a hefty kiss-off to draw a line under the whole matter, by hefty kiss-off, I mean a cash settlement. They'll possibly have to give Branco a credit or something, but a small bump in the road in the grand scheme of things.
