Terry Gilliam's Don Quixote delayed again

At some point, art can imitate life too much. That's certainly the case when it comes to filmmaker Terry Gilliam and his Don Quixote project.

It all started back in 1999, when he got more than $30 million together to bring his vision of The Man Who Killed Dox Quixote to life. It was to be about a modern day ad man, played by Johnny Depp, who gets thrown back to 17th century Spain where he meets the one and only Don Quixote - played by Jean Rochefort. Injury and flash floods killed that production, and a couple of attempted revivals with the likes of Robert Duvall and Ewan McGregor have fallen by the wayside. There was even a documentary made, which is well worth a watch.
