Det har minst sagt varit en lång och bekymmersam resa för Terry Gilliams ”The Man Who Killed Don Quixote”. Igår nådde filmmakaren äntligen sitt slutmål, när han visade upp filmen för festivalpubliken i Cannes.
Inte helt överraskande togs filmen emot med blandade reaktioner, en del älskade den, medan andra avskydde vad de just hade sett. Här är några av reaktionerna:
THE MAN WHO KILLED DON QUIXOTE – Kill me instead this movie sucks. #Cannes2018

The Man Who Killed Don Quixote is bad and I am going to cry in the bathroom now. #Cannes2018

The Man Who Killed Don Quixote is pure Gilliam: chaotic, crazy, noisy but with a heart and the feeling that nobody else could pull the story like this except Terry. I am very thankful for that. #Cannes2018

THE MAN WHO KILLED DON QUIXOTE: its a late period, ramshackle terry gilliam movie! Complaining that it’s a mess is like complaining that SNOW WHITE is animated.

The Man Who Killed Don Quixote – Gilliam’s extravagant wackadoodle adventure is sometimes fun, sometimes a huge mess. Points for being blatantly unique and ambitious, even though it’s all over it’s not so bad, an intriguing fable nonetheless. #cannes2018

Det är dessvärre fortfarande oklart om ”The Man Who Killed Don Quixote” kommer att nå de svenska biograferna.
