Add to wishlist DetailsExisting reviews In this British ballet-opera adaptation of the classical work by Offenbach, a young poet by the name of Hoffman is plagued by a series of failed romances. His affair with beautiful Olympia comes to naught, when he eventually discovers she's only a mechanical woman designed by a scientist. He then comes to believe, that a beautiful courtesan has fallen in love with him, only to find out she was hired by an enemy to fake her affection. In the end, a magic spell takes the life of his final lover. DVD-R is in English with switchable English subtitles. Approx. 120 mins. See film sample for audio and video quality.
