I've seen several movie adaptations of The Nutcracker, and have always found the story to be quite captivating, first published as the short story The Nutcracker and the Mouse King by E. T. A. Hoffman in 1816, and later retold in 1844 by Alexandre Dumas, whose version was adapted into a two-act classical ballet in 1892 by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, the music of which has become iconic and timeless.

I would love to see a great film adaptation of The Nutcracker, preferably one that incorporates Tchaikovsky's music, and stays fairly faithful to the original story.

In your opinion, what is the best movie version of The Nutcracker?
