Premiering in Cannes with a whimper, Terry Gilliam’s The Man Who Killed Don Quixote might actually benefit from the circulation of a making of docu much like how Morgan Neville’s They’ll Love Me When I’m Dead and Orson Welles’ The Other Side of the Wind have been paired. A curiosity item that will likely do more to compliment Lost in La Mancha, if included, Keith Fulton & Louis Pepe‘s He Dreams of Giants (which was being edited back in May) would follow in the footsteps of Bad Kids – which garnered some kudo clout for the filmmaking team (Special Jury Prize for Verité Filmmaking at Sundance in 2016).
Gist: This is the story behind “The Man Who Killed Don Quixote” and its impact on director Terry Gilliam — a film-behind-the-film doc.
Production Co./Producers: Lucy Darwin (Match Point), Keith Fulton
Prediction: Documentary Premieres section.
U.S. Distributor: Rights Available. TBD (domestic). TBD (international).
