The Making of Quixote

[MercuryZap]

It is heartbreaking. Not in any mawkish sense but in a very real and meaningful way and it shapes the whole film. Life is hard. Art is hard. Both have taken a very obvious toll. I get a sense of a man emerging out of the 20th century myth of the director as superhuman hero. Transformed but not I must add defeated. This film will provoke much thought and reflection in Gilliam fans.
