The Tales of Hoffmann (1951)

is a unique and important film, both in the history of British cinema and in the history of interdisciplinary art-making.

It is the first full-throttle presentation of an opera on screen: a Technicolor exploration of romance, fantasy, and failure, more danced than sung.
