The Phantom of the Opera is a very intense movie; it successfully combines the genres of drama, love [romance], and music all in one movie. The Phantom of the Opera was originally the French, Le Fantôme de l'Opéra. The novel was originally written from September 1909 to January of the following year.
The main plot of the story line is that the Phantom lives in the opera house and falls in love with a chorus girl Christine. During rehearsal the lead is instantly full of rage because of the way her singing is going, she leaves and the directors are left without a lead on opening night. Christine is given the lead part due to her singing abilities, leaving the phantom satisfied. The phantom is a monster because he kept Christine hostage from her true love, the phantom was desperate for true love. He loved Christine because she was pure and he taught her how to sing.
This movie holds meaning for me; I had to watch every detail and pay particular attention to the performances and sets, especially the theater. The main reason being is that my sister's Sweet 16 will be based on this movie. I enjoyed the movie based on the love story because Christine and Raul haven't seen each other in awhile, still having that true love proving the old adage "absence makes the heart grow fonder".
There was always a side of me that said, Christine had some love for the Phantom because she would be memorized by his voice. Raul on the other hand really did have Christine heart; she loved him forever and always. Christine as soon as she saw Raul thought of their past.
