The Man Who Killed Don Quixote at the Guild Cinema
Friday-Monday, May 17-20 – 4:30 & 7:00 pm daily

Directed by Terry Gilliam – 2019 – 135m

Terry Gilliam’s epic tale, decades in the making, finally sees the light of day!  Jonathan Pryce and Adam Driver star in the film that audience have been waiting on for years!

Toby (Adam Driver), a cynical advertising director, finds himself trapped in the outrageous delusions of an old Spanish shoe-maker (Jonathan Pryce) who believes himself to be Don Quixote. In the course of their comic and increasingly surreal adventures, Toby is forced to confront the tragic repercussions of a film he made in his idealistic youth — a film that changed the hopes and dreams of a small Spanish village forever. Can Toby make amends and regain his humanity? Can Don Quixote survive his madness and imminent death? Or will love conquer all?

“Witty, goofy, and glorious, The Man Who Killed Don Quixote is Terry Gilliam’s best film in two decades.” – Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com

“More than just a cinematic joyride, however, Gilliam is offering a commentary on the exploitative nature of filmmaking; a critique of Hollywood as colonising force.” – Keva York, ABC News (Australia)
