This spectacular film of Don Quixote, choregraphed after Petipa and directed for the screen by Russian ballet superstar Rudolf Nureyev, is recognized as one of the finest ballet performances ever caught on camera and a cinematic triumph in it's own right.

This timeless story of love, gallantry and misadventure - all unfolding with Minkus's exhilarating Spanish flavored music - has stood the test of time as one of the world's most popular ballets. Lovingly restored from the original 35mm film, and to be heard for the first time in full SS digital stereo created for the DVD and Blu-ray , this is finally, how Nureyev intended his Don Quixote to be seen and heard.
