"Original and daring!" - Films & Filming

Academy Award winners Peter O'Toole and Sophia Loren are magnificent in this "lavishly produced" (LA Herald-Examiner) and "beautifully acted" (The New York Times) epic masterpiece. Featuring an Oscar-nominated score with the classic "The Impossible Dream," this truly beautiful musical is an experience not to be missed!

Jailed during the Spanish Inquisition for offending the church, author Miguel de Cervantes (O'Toole) is forced to act out one of his manuscripts for the entertainment of fellow inmates. Cervantes delivers a rapturous performance as the legendary Don Quixote, the chivalrous knight whose choice to see life as it should be, not as it is, takes him into battles with an imaginary foe and into romance with the beautiful Dulcinea (Loren).
