Hit: 5 Stars
Not sure what I might have thought of this 30 years ago, but at 68, I'm feeling pretty dumb that I only just now got round to seeing it.
I was blown away! Not since the Broadway musical, "Les Miserables," have I been swept up in such a powerful presentation of the grace of God.
Having spent the past two days tracing down its origins, it is clear that there was an invisible hand guiding the various writers through which the life of Cervantes finally became "Man Of La Mancha," the movie.
Imprisoned by what was calling itself "church" in the days of the Spanish Inquisition, Cervantes, the sane man behind the mad man, Quixote, finds himself tried on two fronts. In the dungeon, where the Inquisition has locked him up, he is put on trial by his fellow prisoners. He defends himself by becoming the crazy Don Quixote, the would-be knight in quest of an "Impossible Dream."
Enlisting his fellow prisoners as the cast of his play, as his defense plays out, he must convince a very fallen women, Aldonza, that she is an incomparable princess. All she need do to make the transition is to believe the new name he gives her, "Dulcinea." To that end he dedicates his life. Dying to prove his unoffendable love, she finally sees the light, and in her seeing, transforms the others held in prison be the Inquisition of that day.
In short, the movie seemed to me to be vested with a meaning no sane person of this world intended. The original script may be found in Ezekiel, Chapter Sixteen.
