Sex & Nudity
-
- A woman shows a lot of cleavage most of the movie.
- Few men try to grab a woman clothed breast.
- Aldonza is a prostitute, and the muleteers constantly make lewd references about this.
- In a dimly lit area a man cuddles a woman while laying down. The man leaves, and another man moves in and cuddles the woman.
- A woman sings two very bitter songs of her rough life, one of which alludes to prostitution.
Violence & Gore
-
- One of the muleteers viciously slaps Aldonza.
- Don Quixote, who is delusional, attacks a windmill believing it to be a ferocious giant, but gets the worst of it. This incident, however, is presented strictly as comedy, and is one of the funniest episodes in the film.
- Aldonza almost hits Don Quixote at one point, but one of the muleteers stops her.
- A woman beats down the muleteers with a broom when they mockingly sing to her.
- The dungeon prisoners jump on Cervantes and nearly strangle him early in the film.
- Don Quixote threatens a barber with his sword, believing the barber's shaving basin to be a miraculous golden helmet, but the scene is played strictly for laughs.
- A free-for-all fight (rather comical, and very benignly shown) erupts in the inn courtyard between Quixote and the muleteers. Many people are knocked unconscious.
Profanity
-
- The Lord's name is taken in vain, including 'Christ' and 'God'.
- 'B*stard' is said at least 4 times, mostly in one scene.
- 'Sons of whores' and 'whore' are said.
- 'Slut' is said twice.
- Some language is very suggestive sexually.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- The muleteers drink and some of them don't appear to be entirely sober during their first scene in the film.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- Late in the film, Dr. Carrasco returns disguised as a knight, with a "shock cure" for Don Quixote. He and his attendants, similarly dressed as knights, force Don Quixote to look into several shields with mirrors, while chanting that he is only a madman and that Aldonza is not a lady, but a slut. They advance on him, and the light from the sun, reflected on the mirrors is too harsh. Don Quixote passes out from the shock.
- In the first prison scene, the prisoners come across as very threatening and intimidating. Later, as the film progresses, they seem more humanized.
- There is an ominous moment when soldiers of the Spanish Inquisition enter the dungeon to take a prisoner to his trial and he tries to keep them from doing so.
- Near the beginning, we partially see the dead bodies of Inquisition prisoners who are being carted away after execution. All we see is the arm and hand of a corpse, but both arm and hand are pale white.
Spoilers
Sex & Nudity
- Many men attack a prostitute, though the impending rape is not shown; they simply tear off some of her clothes and manhandle her until she lapses into unconsciousness.
Violence & Gore
- During the attempted rape scene, this same muleteer uses a whip on her, not for kinky sex, but to force her into submission. She passes out immediately afterwards.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- The death of Don Quixote is somewhat intense, as well as the exit by Cervantes and The Manservant.
