Dealer teleplay, "I, Don Quixote" on CBS-TV's DuPont Show of the Month. As the sentimental old Spaniard who mourned chivalry's passing and took it upon himself, in the 16th Cen tury, to revive romanticism and serve "all that is good on earth," Cobb was near-perfect. He was lucid, yet un seeing; raspy and clear; right but wrong; powerful and weak; serious and pathetic; touching and beautifuL He was creaky-boned and over whelming. His eyes and mouth had the look of a Quixote and, if Cobb were about 30 or 40 pounds lighter, it would have been a perfect match. Brought Author To Life In also portraying Quixote's creator, the mysterious Span ish writer, Miguel de Cervan tes, Cobb brought to life, how ever briefly, this man's re- puted gentleness, courage and deeply-rofeted nobility. Eli Wallach as a puffy San cho Panza leaped to his task with an overabundance of clownishness. Colleen Dew hurst as the kitchen maid, Aldonza, did nicely in the deathbed scene, although she let hysteria take over in an earlier scene. Despite Cobb, the produc tion, an ambitious one for TV, exposed again the limitations of the TV stage and screen. Many of the big outdoor scenes, especially the immor tal windmill joust, had the frailty and mannered move ment that studio dashing about can't seem to escape. Masterful Camera Work Director Karl Genus did his camera work masterfully, however. This was the first original play for the DuPont series -although it was mostly an editing job and let's hope those responsible for this good try will emulate Quixote and start going after more liter ary windmills for a change. .4 I tected by Tasmania and not for sale at any price.
