Academy Award Winner Istvan Szabo brings to the screen two of Jacques Offenbachs operettas set against the backdrop of power & intrigue in 19th century Paris. Offenbachs Secret follows the staging of Corquefer & Les deux Aveugles at the Theatre des bouffes-Parisiens
- founded by Offenbach in 1855. Limited by French law to one act wit no more than three singers, Offenbachs early operettas were filled with biting social commentary & poked fun at the moral ambiguity of Frances Second Empire under Napoleon III. In addition to Offenbachs vivacious music, the film features lush customes, perios details, & striking set designs. The cast
