I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

The cast includes Adam Driver, Stellan Skarsgard, and Jonathan Pryce as Don Quixote. Michael Palin was almost Quixote a couple years ago, but that fell through. Too bad, he'd have been who I preferred.

i need to read that

I never have read it either. nor Moby Dick. nor War and Peace. nor The Iliad. nor any Dostoevky nor Proust. I've only ever read half of one of Joyce's shorter books. And I never got past page 100 of Blood Meridien. I'm basically an illiterate.
