Today we present two interesting television series belonging to this group of work that has even a few years were not very common in our television programming which, seeking the sole purpose of entertaining at the same time be culturally to viewers.
The series takes us to 1616 when an ailing Miguel de Cervantes languishes in the care of her niece Constance. Cervantes is visited by a young graduate admirer his work and whose sole purpose is to seek support for the writer to receive due recognition from the monarch. From here various characters, some friends, some enemies, we will discover through their memories, the most important events of the writer's life. Discover among others: the frustrated and repeated attempts to escape captivity in Algiers, the excommunication which was to take wheat and barley council of Seville without proper licenses, or how he met Matthew German - author Alfarache Guzman - in Andalusian prison.
Another aspect to highlight in the collection are the various extras that contain the series, and is that all three cd's that make up the collection contain an interview with the director, a documentary on the Spot, a play starring Cervantes and an annotated representation of "licensed window."
In short we have a TV series, approaching the life of the Prince of Wits, complements well the joint reading of the Quijote perform a few insane thanks to the Internet for more than a year.
Needless to say, this is the first part of the work of Don Quixote where an extraordinary cast of English actors interpret a greater or lesser extent to the different characters in the book. Among other find a great Don Quixote played by Fernando Rey, Sancho played by Alfredo Landa, Francisco Merino to cool and Manuel Alexandre making curate and the barber respectively, and a young Aitana Sanchez-Gijon making Dorotea.
With respect to the series itself, we can say that thanks to your extension can have a more coherent and linear first part of the book, a company that, for obvious reasons, have failed the different previous film adaptations. In another vein, the extras though not as abundant as in the series Cervantes, if they show some interesting interviews with people who have died as Fernando Fernan Gomez and Camilo Jose Cela, who, was a writer should remember series.
Therefore, as we mentioned in previous review, this series is another great addition to reading, because - and this is a personal opinion - that you have read the first book, you can enjoy more of the adventures of "mad" knight on the screen our televisions.
