Film Tracks Gilliam's Quixotic 'La Mancha' Effort

By Kenneth Turan
Published January 31, 2003 at 12:00 AM EST

It's a film about a film that never was. The documentary Lost in La Mancha follows director Terry Gilliam -- of Brazil and Monty Python fame -- as he attempts a screen version of Don Quixote. Los Angeles Times film critic Kenneth Turan offers a review.
