The $A700,000 film will have a world-wide release towards the middle of 1973. In just five frenetic weeks of activity, the ballet which was such a success during the Australian Ballet Company's United States tour in 1971 has been recorded in full colour for the wide screen. Shooting took place in two vast hangers at Melbourne's almost disused Essendon Airport. The stars and joint director of Don Quixote are Australia's own Sir Robert Helpmann and the Russian dance star, Rudolph Nureyev. Part of the set of the Gypsy Enactment scene in the ballet film of Don Quixote being produced in Melbourne. Centre, with outstretched arms is the film's star and co-director, Australian Sir Robert Helpmann. Australian Information Service photograph by Don Edwards, P72/12337 8/12/72/19" -- printed on reverse.
