Honor de Cavalleria (Quixotic) (Albert Serra, 2006)

7/10
Albert Serra's (looong) "take" on Don Quixote and his pal Sancho, this is a very nuanced film that has bored and will bore many to death. I wasn't really bored by it but I didn't find it the revelation it's been hyped as either. The movie does manage to be surprisingly touching and it's always fun to look at though. I have his follow-up, Birdsong, and I'm looking forward to watching that since it's apparently even beetter (and slower!)
