What critics compared The Tales of Hoffmann to
I'll admit that I would find any movie that could credibly fuse elements of " The Tales of Hoffmann ," " The Exorcist " and " The Haunting " for its big-deal climax is gonna win me over, even if it's throwing narrative coherence out the window as it does so (and it does).
This actress is played by Moira Shearer, Powell's dancing star from The Red Shoes (1948), and The Tales of Hoffmann (1951).
