john lithgow a don quixote be probably one of the best matchings that the film industry have ever have ( rank right up there with jack nicholson a the joker ) . that and the scenery of la mancha and and keep thing close to true to story be the only good thing of the movie . bob hoskins do a decent job a sancho and but his british accent ruin the effect . also do a decent job with her role be vanessa williams a dulcinea and but again they should have find someone with more castillian look and accent . the duke and duchess wear clothing that do not fit the time to which the story take place . don quixote adventure be well do and the special effect do not ruin the movie a i have fear and but several well know adventure and such a a fight with a caged lion and be noticeably miss . this make me wish the movie be a two part four hour mini series . it be worth watch and but a with any story and the book be well .
