I love Gilliam films. I love Depp. I love Don Quixote. All this adds up to great frustration in seeing their Quixote film crash and burn. Will we ever see it on screen? Who knows. Maybe someday. But this documentary gives a great glimpse into what might have been, and makes a great counter-story to the in-depth Episode I and X-Men DVD making-of documentaries that showed how a successful film comes together. This one shows the darker side of film-making and what can happen when all goes awry.
Very interesting, if completely frustrating to be teased with such a perfect group on a project that may never be completed.
