Il quitte donc son village, monté sur sa jument Rossinante, mais il échouera dans son rôle de redresseur de torts."

  • "With the aid of his squire Sancho Panza, Don Quixote attempts to redress the wrongs of the world."

  • "Film d'aventures adapté du roman de Cervantes. Hanté par la lecture de romans de chevalerie médiévale, Don Quichotte décide de revivre les aventures de son héros. Il quitte son village, monté sur sa jument Rossinante, en compagnie de son écuyer Sancho Pança. Ce film, longtemps pensé perdu, avait été tourné simultanément en anglais et en français avec des distributions différentes, sauf pour Feodor Chaliapine dans le rôle titre ; film réalisé en Haute-Provence. Autres rôles : George Robey, Oscar Asche, Sydney Fox. Séquences célèbres de l'attaque des moulins à vent, du bûcher brûlant les livres de chevalerie, de la délivrance des forçats ainsi que des répliques chantées de Chaliapine."
  • "In Spain, in the sixteenth century, an elderly gentleman named Don Quixote has gone mad from reading too many books on chivalry. Proclaiming himself a knight, he sets out with his squire, Sancho Panza, to reform the world and revive the age of chivalry, choosing a slut to be his noble lady Dulcinea. He mistakes inns for castles, a play about chivalry for the real thing, flocks of sheep for armies, convicts for wronged prisoners, and windmills for giants."
