The Man Who Killed Don Quixote2018

The man who killed Don Quixote is a film about cinema and the power of creation, but I don't really see it as a film, it's unorganized and all over the place, I think of it as a tale and spectacle more than anything else, and maybe this is why I love it; it's fun and I don't know where it's going with a meta story that is too much in your face. It’s a story of an obnoxious director who tells the story that blurs fiction and reality, until the director himself endorses the role of his creation. Am I talking about Terry Gilliam here? Perhaps Toby? Or even Don Quixote the character? I see them all as the director, or the creator let's say; a line that spans between ideas, realism and madness, and sometimes they merge together. Just as the movie ends, the realist becomes the dreamer, the sane into mad and is consumed by his work was he afraid of it? of the lives it changed and the people he exploited for his art or is he surrendering to his art, rejecting his failure and hurdles that come with reality and going mad by his creation and for his creation. almost like a prophecy he foretold upon himself and with the death of a prophet, a new one arrives He keeps the dream and becomes the dreamer.
