Shooting finds its climax andcompletion on the Stommeln village green. In the remake of the novel, Haus zur Trapp, built in 1785 and in reality now a café and hotel, serves as the inn Don Quixote believes is a castle. The fair maidens standing at the door are actually “two young women, girls of the district,” who scornfully tie his hand to the bolt of a door while his horse, Rosinante, takes to her hooves: in Stommeln, the actor is left dangling from the inn?s sign. This stunt passes smoothly into the next: on the village green in front of the Trapp, Don Quixote is thrown from his horse at full gallop- and the mystery surrounding the movie´s title is solved. “Losing horses” are horses that lose their riders, that liberate themselves from them.
