Unlike other unfinished Orson Welles films, "Don Quixote's" incomplete state was not because of lack of finances. Welles always considered his Don Quixote a "private exercise". Or as he put it, he worked on it like an author works on a novel; under no obligations, no time constraints, and could finish it whenever he feels like it.
Finished by Jesús Franco and Patxi Irigoyen in 1992. (Orson Welles died in 1985).
According to Spanish film critic Juan Cobos, who had watched an early rough cut of the movie while Orson Welles was still filming material for it, this new version cut and reshaped by Jesús Franco doesn't resemble Welles' vision at all.
The film doesn't include all known footage of "Don Quixote." There is footage being privately held in at least two collections in Europe.
Frank Sinatra gave $25,000 to Orson Welles to help him keep the cameras rolling.
