Don Quijote cabalga de nuevo (English: Don Quijote Rides Again) is a 1973 Spanish-Mexican comedy film, directed by Roberto Gavaldón [1]and starring Mario Moreno «Cantinflas» as Sancho Panza, Fernando Fernán Gómez as Don Quixote, and María Fernanda D'Ocón as Dulcinea. This film is loosely based on Miguel de Cervantes's novel Don Quixote.
Don Quijote is obsessed with chivalry and its codes of honour.
