What critics compared Don Quixote to
A beautiful dream, ruined, is the theme of Pavich's film and of two other movies about unfinished movies: the 1965 The Epic That Never Was, detailing Josef von Sternberg's attempt to film Robert Grave's I, Claudius with Charles Laughton as the Roman emperor, and the 2002 Lost in La Mancha, outlining Terry Gilliam's troubles with filming Don Quixote, which was to star Jean Rochefort as Quixote and Johnny Depp as Sancho Panza.
