Hoffman - Limited Edition (US Import)

One of the most unsettling films in the Peter Sellers canon, Hoffman sees the actor in a sinister starring role as a bachelor who obsesses over his secretary Miss Smith (Sinéad Cusack, Tam Lin, Revenge). Hoffman discovers Miss Smith's boyfriend (Jeremy Bulloch, The Empire Strikes Back) has been fiddling the books at work, and blackmails her into spending a weekend with him. Their time together reveals Hoffman's tragic, lonely existence.Alvin Rakoff (Death Ship) directs a film which is by turns amusing, poignant and uneasy, and which boasts a central performance so uncomfortable and revealing that its star tried to have the film's negative destroyed. Hoffman makes its worldwide debut on Blu-ray.Indicator Limited Edition Blu-ray Special Features:New restoration from a 4K scan of the original negative by Powerhouse FilmsOriginal mono audioSelected scenes commentary with director Alvin Rakoff (2022)New interview with Alvin Rakoff (2022)New interview with focus puller Eddie Collins (2022)New interview with draughtsman Terry Ackland-Snow (2022)Original theatrical trailerImage gallery: promotional and publicity materialLimited edition exclusive booklet with a new essay by John Rain, archival interviews with Peter Sellers and Sinéad Cusack, a look at author Ernest Gébler's multiple iterations of the Hoffman story, an overview of contemporary critical responses, and film creditsWorld premiere on Blu-ray
