Don Quixote (1934)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
Don Quixote (looking like John Carradine) is locked up in a padded cell when he begins to read a book about battling knights. His imagination then gets away from him and he pretends to be a knight and goes for some adventures. This Ub Iwerks short is a fairly entertaining one, which once again benefits from some wonderful and creative animation. The animation is certainly the highlight as there are some really great moments done with it including the various "action" in the book that he's reading. The story itself isn't all that special but the lead character is at least interesting. This certainly isn't a masterpiece but it's entertaining.
