- TriviaOn June 2018, The Paris Court of Appeal declares a former contract between Terry Gilliam and Paulo Branco as valid and orders the director to pay EUR10,000 in fees to Branco's company. However the ruling doesn't specify that the rights of "The Man Who Killed Don Quixote" belong to Branco. In an official statement, the film producer Mariela Besuievsky declared : "We have the rights of 'Don Quixote' and it will be released all over the world.".
- Quotes[on the Paris Court of Appeal ruling in his favour on The Man Who Killed Don Quixote (2018)] The ruling means that the rights to the film belong to [Branco's production company] Alfama. Any exploitation of the film up until now has been completely illegal and without the authorisation of Alfama. We will be seeking damages with interest from all the people involved in this illegal production and above all, all those who were complicit in its illegal exploitation. We're holding everyone responsible... [Director Terry Gilliam], the film's producers, [Paris-based sales company and producer] Kinology, all the others who supported the film, including those who distributed the film in France [Ocean Films] and the Cannes Film Festival, everyone. (...) The film belongs in its entirety to Alfama. The film was made illegally. It's the first time, I've ever seen so many people embark on a mission to produce and exploit a film, without holding the rights. It's a unique case. [Screendaily, June 15, 2018]
