The PHANTOM of the OPERA

今天下午我们去看了这部电影。
说起这个音乐剧,第一次接触这个戏是在18年前,那时候没有CD只有录音带,是一个清大中文系男生送我的礼物,那位男生是他们学校戏剧社社长,能演能唱,天生有付好嗓子,当时算是追求吧,每从新竹打电话到台北给我,总会在热线那头应我的央求唱上几曲,The music of the night、All I ask of you 这两首总少不了,当然爱好音乐的我也就迷上这部戏,18年来从录音带听到CD,无数个夜晚在Michael Crawford和Sarah Brightman的天籁歌声中度过。
一直到前年才有机会在旧金山 Orpheum Theatre 欣赏到这部著名音乐剧 (Ralph早我几年也在这个剧院看过这个戏),个人而言,看现场演出跟电影,感受略有不同,现场欣赏音乐剧时投入较深,看电影就没有那么入戏,但电影的细节安排较为细致,服装、布景、角色、画面等等设计都很丰富,绝对也比早先拍摄的影片更豪华。音乐和演唱部分,精彩的无话可说,真的很动人。看完电影后,Ralph说他决定在下个月的化妆舞会上打扮成Phantom。 .... Candy
The movie had wonderful visuals with terrific sets. The music was first class of course, at least if you are familiar with the theatrical soundtrack. The acting is passable and the whole story translates pretty well into in movie. The only disconnect in my mind was when the Phantom was poling the boat to his hiding place and they used a modern score rather than one with classical instruments. All in all, I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys good music and theater type drama. .... Ralph
