PHANTOM'S VOICE
Come to me: Angel of Music ...... 

White and black to color, the time period changes from present, Paris, 1919, to past, 1870, where all characters existed, Christine, the Phantom, Raowl, and Madame Giry. In 1919, at Paris Opera House, the auction was held selling all kinds of things left behind after the event. By Raowl and Madame Giry, the whole story is revealed going back to the time, 1870. 

The Opera, at that time, was the entertainment people entertained. On or out of stage, the whole Opera House was filled with full of attention and noise. The event began with the Phantom, living very underneath of the Opera House that know one was aware of.

He, the Phantom, often sent letters sealed with skull shaped wax letting the owners of the Opera House to have a knowledge of him. That day in 1870 was no exception. Christine, pure looking with pale face and a talent, that no one knew of, was specifically asked by the Phantom to sing the main part.

Except for Madame Giry and her daughter, no one expected Christine to be able to sing that song, but to surprise all the rest, her voice was exceptional. Her talent in singing was attention grabbing that all the guests raised and clapped at the end. In a day, she gained fame but no one knew there was a mysterious person behind all this. The Angel of Music, whom she learned to sing and leaned to whenever she was sad.

Finally getting a chance to meet the Angel of Music, she learns all. All about the Opera House, the hidden secret below the Opera House.

Then the whole plot begins, where the 'love' comes in between, among the 'despair,' 'anger,' and 'sadness.' Just like the other romantic movies, this movie also contains three-way love, but nothing like the rest. This is much more intense and heart grabbing and breaking. As for the rest of movies, the only two lovers remain happy at the end knowing their true love, yet for this one, the 'love' of the Phantom does not get to be accomplished as he wishes due to his misfortune he had his youth.

If it was only the movies by itself, this The Phantom of the Opera could have been just a simple 'movie,' but with actual operas inside it, this becomes the movie that remains as a number one to me at all time. You not only can be amused of the storyline but also by the beauty of all the actors' heartening voice. 

If you ever are feeling unrested, falling apart from despair, saddened, feeling lack of love, do look for The Phantom of the Opera.
