La Toile d'araignée merveilleuse, released in the United States as Incident from Don Quixote and in Britain as Magic Armour,[2] and also known as The Marvelous Cobweb[3] and as Aventures de Don Quichotte,[4] was a 1908 French short silent film directed by Georges Méliès, inspired by Miguel de Cervantes's Don Quixote.
The film depicts a dreaming Don Quixote who fights monsters in his sleep.
The film features a typical depiction of a tentacle monster.
Having vanquished them, he goes to put on his armor, only to be met with a succession of strange events: first the armor appears occupied by a creature with stretching limbs, then a lovely young woman appears and sprouts butterfly wings.
Just as Quixote is fighting back and reaching for his lance, he wakes up to find himself pummeling his servant Sancho Panza.
