"The Man Who Killed Don Quixote" I guess.

12 Monkeys was great, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was brilliant, I liked The Brothers Grimm and Tideland. Gillian supposedly was trying to make Don Quixote for decades, it was his passion project and it turned out to be a big nothingburger. I never heard anyone mention if after the premier. I read the books and the movie simply used some characters and scenes from them. The movie was "inspired by" the books in the most boring, superficial way possible.
