Looking for Peter Sellers film...

[Melissa Downes]

Hi, I'm new here. My name's Melissa & I'm a film student. I've been looking for a print of a rather rare Peter Sellers film called "Hoffman." Doesn't matter if it's 35mm or 16mm. Condition doesn't really matter either. If anybody has heard of this film or could suggest a place to look I would appreciate it.

Thank You.

I saw the film decades ago. Well acted but basically a filmed stage play/talking heads movie. The 35mm prints were in Technicolor. The
16mm prints were Eastmancolor and faded by now. I never heard of
a post-1983 LPP of the film although they might have made them for
syndication. Very obscure and hard to find and I doubt whether there
are many prints floating around since it was a boxoffice failure. Good luck.

Pretty sure there was a 16mm print on eBay a couple of weeks back...

There was a print on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=63821&item=6324985191&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

Faded as I suspected although they still made 16mm IB's in 1970 like "The Adventurers".

I actually found that print and bid on it. But, somebody outbid me in the last 5mins of the auction. Pretty frustrating.

Melissa, you were probably sniped. Every seems to snipe on eBay these days - seems to be the only way you can win an item.

Don't give up searching on ebay Melissa. 99.99% of the time, when I get sniped, I find the item again and it is selling for a lesser price and of better quality and then I end up being the winner!!:D

Thanks for your advice guys. If you ever hear anything about it let me know.
