Don Quixote the novel was too rambling to be dramatized, but the almost equally incredible story of the novel's creator wasn't. Wasserman wrote, first, a tv drama of Man of La Mancha which David Susskind produced as "I, Don Quixote."

Originally released as a motion picture in 1972 starring Peter O'Toole and Sophia Loren.
