	Monsignor Quixote - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Monsignor Quixote is a novel by Graham Greene, published in 1982.
		Father Quixote, a parish priest in the little town of El Toboso in Spain's La Mancha region, regards himself as a descendant of Cervantes' character of the same name, even if people point out to him that Don Quixote was a fictitious character.
		In the subsequent course of events, Quixote and his companion have all sorts of funny and moving adventures along the lines of his ancestor's on their way through post-Franco Spain.

	Monsignor Quixote
		Before long, Quixote receives a letter from his own bishop saying that Motopo recommended to the Pope that the priest should be promoted to Monsignor.
		Quixote decides to travel in his car, Rosalanté, to Madrid with his friend, the former Communist mayor, Sancho, to buy the symbols of his new position, a pair of purple socks and pachera (sp?) or bib.
		Quixote about never having fallen in love: "Lord, if I'm incapable of human love, then I must be incapable of love for you." Sancho comparing the police to windmills: "Police turn with the political wind." And his view of religion: "Religion is the valium of the poor."

	Monsignor Quixote (Graham greene) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Behind the clever adaptation of the Don Quixote story to a context in post-Franco Spain there is a dance of ideas, much as Shaw's plays are a dance of ideas, and the questions dealt with are the biggest and most fundamental that we all have to deal with.
		At one point Father Quixote admits that a certain doctrine is one that he believes out of obedience, an admirable attitude for traditionalist believers whether Catholic or communist - you believe x because you're supposed to believe it and you'll be in trouble if you don't.
		MONSIGNOR QUIXOTE by Graham Greene was thoroughly enjoyable, and touched, as some of Greene's better works are, with a divine stroke of love and genius.

	Monsignor Quixote (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		But Monsignor Quixote's naivete contains kernels of wit and a practical humanity as well.
		It's literate, sensitive and unapologetically religious (practically taboo in movies these days), all cradled in a lovely soundtrack which is at once playful and remarkably poignant.
		A high point here is an exquisite performance by a young Valentine Pelka as the haughty, steely-eyed Father Hererra, the replacement in whose heartlessness Quixote must leave his beloved little village in his absence.

	Amazon.co.uk: Monsignor Quixote (Vintage Classics): Books (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Monsignor Quixote travels the roads of Post-Franco Spain with Sancho Panza (a committed communist and former Mayor) in an ancient little car he affectionately calls, Rocinante.
		Their journey is both a physical and intellectual one, as the unlikely companions debate their seperate and (to an extent which Greene questions) opposed beliefs.
		Greene forces the reader to ask whether we are machines, like Rocinante, free from morality and then damned to complete non-existence, or whether we have a soul in which case we are bound through life by morality and either damnation or salvation lie beyond.

		Though I sometimes had the impression that the film is little more than an illustration of the book by means of moving pictures, the performances, especially by the very touching Alec Guinness, are well worth seeing it.
		I especially liked the scene of Quixote's discussion with his bishop - in this moment, the film gained some genuine punch of its own.

	Monsignor Quixote - Graham Greene - Review - A comic quest
		It is closely linked to the Spanish classic Don Quixote, written by Cervantes four hundred years ago, but is a great read in its own right.
		The central character is Quixote himself, an old priest in a small town.
		A chance meeting and his hospitality are rewarded with promotion to the title of monsignor, but this attracts the attention of his disapproving bishop.
