A documentary following German auteur Werner Herzog as he deals with difficult actors, bad weather and getting a boat over a mountain, all in an effort to make his film Fitzcarraldo.
Like his hero Sam Lowry from "Brazil", the realization may indeed be one of hopelessness, but the dream never really dies. With Terry Gilliam, Johnny Depp, Jeff Bridges, Tony Grisoni. The Oscar winning co-writer and producer of

It's the ultimate evolutionary form of the movie-madness documentary genre. With the exception of 12 Monkeys most of his films have been too far out there or simply a mixture of styles that don't appeal to me. In the best tradition of documentary filmmaking, Lost in La Mancha captures all the drama of this story through "fly-on-the-wall" verite footage and on-the-spot interviews. There was the famous standoff between Gilliam and Universal Studios president Sid Sheinberg about re-cutting Brazil to make it ‘feel good’, the Weinstein brothers trying to pull the same crap with The Brothers Grimm, Heath Ledger dying while filming The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus, and in 2015, Variety ( mistakenly ) published his obituary. Lost In La Mancha may be the first "un-making of" documentary. In 2002, Keith Fulton and Louis Pepe released “Lost in La Mancha,” a documentary covering director Terry Gilliam‘s failed attempt at adapting “Don Quixote” as a feature-length film at the beginning of the decade. I love Adam Driver, but Johnny Depp as the lead in the early 2000's would've been killer.Interesting tale of disaster planning met with disasters not planned for.The behind-the-scenes coverage is great stuff and reveals to those of us outside of the industry the size and scope of the project management.Although Gilliam gives a good interview and largely the interviewers catch him with his happy face on and being positive, it’s also nice to catch a few of those on-set moments where he gets ticked off due to being the guileless subject of large-scale crap luck. It follows Terry Gilliam’s attempts to create a reimagined tale of Don Quixote. Diluvios, cazas volando mientras se rodaba la película, actores con problemas de salud, miembros del equipo que no aparecían cuando tenían que aparecer... Todo resultó ser una locura que acabó con la propia película y con la excitación de un director cuya visión ha influido notablemente en la cultura pop de las últimas décadas.A ver qué tal se desenvuelve en el intento que hizo, con éxito, en 2018.Terry Gilliam es El Quijote en una versión donde todos están tan locos como élNie umiem oceniać dokumentów. Fulton and Pepe are clearly fans and friends, so Lost In La Mancha never goes for the jugular; the repeated equation of Gilliam with Don Quixote himself, tilting furiously at corporate windmills, is born entirely of admiration, not scorn. Was this review helpful to you? Make no mistake about it, film-making is just difficult work a lot of the time, and a completely collaborative effort where everything has to look right, sound right, be pre-planned to death, and of course the production team (when not in a studio, and out in the wilderness) is at the mercy of nature. Documentarians Keith Fulton and Louis Pepe--the team who produced the excellent feature-length The Hamster Factor about … Most stories of tortured film productions turn on the tragedy of missed opportunities: We’ll never know if Alejandro Jodoworsky’s “ But what I didn't expect was that the film would really be just an exemplary, honest account of what it takes to make a film. On the one hand this film provides an … It kinda makes you angry that this film was plagued with problems that they couldn't fix, and you can see the continued enthusiasm from those involved, even when things did go wrong.
So watching this documentary was sad as we watch Gilliam go down with the ship. The monumentally troubled, decades-spanning production of director Rent $3.99
