The Man Who Killed Don Quixote

The Man Who Killed Don Quixote (2018) is Terry Gilliam's adventure comedy you can watch online on iFILM. A burned-out commercials director stumbles back to the Spanish village where, years earlier, he shot a student film about Don Quixote.

Toby was once an idealist; now he churns out ads and despises his own work. In the village he finds the old shoemaker he cast as the knight, a man who never broke character. The old fellow is convinced he truly is Don Quixote, and he takes Toby for his squire, Sancho Panza. From there the line between reality and delusion dissolves, the journey grows stranger by the mile, and Toby has to face what his long-ago film did to the people he filmed. Adam Driver plays the cynical Toby, Jonathan Pryce the deluded knight, with Stellan Skarsgard and Olga Kurylenko along for the ride.

Gilliam chased this project for nearly thirty years, with the production collapsing so often it inspired its own documentary. The finished film is messy, personal and gloriously quixotic. Stream The Man Who Killed Don Quixote (2018) online on iFILM.
