It's a movie based on the Offenbach opera based on E.T.A. Hoffman, a German writer, playwright, composer, and painter.
It's one of my all-time favorite movies - the music is sublime, the sets are gorgeous, the technicolor is eye-popping, the performances are breathtaking, and the whole is a trip into a fantastic otherworld of song, dance, and passion.
Maybe not quite what you had in mind, but it's an incredible feast for the eyes, the ears, and the heart.
