...Quixote" comes to the Majestic screen. The most popular escapades of the scatter-brained knight-errant have been chronicled; they assume full stature due in most part to the photographic genius of Nicholas Farkas. Every shot conspires to emphasize the romantic Knight of the Mournful Countenance; landscapes receive the treatment of the Old Masters so that all interest converges on Don Quixote...
