Well, the plot sounds good, and there is a touch of semi-autobiography there. With a leaner budget, I wonder what's been lost and gained?

The film has an IMDb page for all to see now, and according to IMDb, Jeremy Thomas is still on board as executive producer.

My main beef would be that the supernatural element of time-travel got dropped years ago for lack of funding reasons. But what can ya do if people give you next to no money? But still gonna watch it for Terry's wide-angle photography, of course.

I don't know if someone here has an access to "production weekly" but the issue 886 published last week mentions The man who killed Don Quixote.

Is that a good sign of things moving forwards?

Thanks for the link.
The new focus sounds very interesting; fascinating, really, given the history.

We'll see...

On the french radio, Tony Grisoni said that he had to deliver yet another rewrite of the screenplay before the end of the year but didn't reveal much more.

Will we hear cast news soon or is it too early to say anything yet?
