The Tales of Hoffmann is screening in Toronto right now with 1 showtime at Paradise Theatre (Sep 20). Showtimes below come from each cinema's own listings and are refreshed several times a day. Directed by Michael Powell, released in 1951, fantasy and adventure, 127 minutes long.
*In the prologue, E. T. A. Hoffmann is in the audience at a performance by Stella, a prima ballerina, of "The Ballet of the Enchanted Dragonfly". Stella sends Hoffmann a note asking him to meet her after the performance, but the note is intercepted by his rival, Councillor Lindorf. Not having received her note, Hoffmann goes to the tavern in the interval, where he tells the story of a clown, Kleinzach, and three stories of his past loves — Olympia, Giulietta and Antonia, and gets drunk.
