Trivia / Hoffmaniada

• Acting for Two: Anna Artamonova voices all three of Hoffmann's love interests (not the first time something like that has been done.
• Dueling Movies: The film ended up being released the same year as The Nutcracker and the Four Realms, another Hoffmann adaptation. While neither movie got a great overall response, critics vastly preferred Hoffmaniada, and it did receive slightly higher ratings.
• The Other Marty: Sort of. Between the short and the film, Ernst's puppet was redesigned to look more like a shabbier Anselm (and incidentally, less like the actual historical figure.)
• What Could Have Been: Word of God is that Kapellmeister Johannes Kreisler — a fairly prominent Hoffmann character in his own right — was meant to be in the film, but the writers couldn't think of a way to included him.
