The plot is a bit cliché, but the song Music of Night never tires of listening to it. How come no one turned "The Mystery of the Yellow House" into a musical?

8/10. The world is completely different from the silent film version. The music version chooses bright artificial light. As the circuit of the large chandelier is turned on, the reverse spatiotemporal montage transforms the dusty and broken theater into a luxurious multicolored costume, golden hall, and red curtain. Past. The silent film only has the stage-sensing chasing light highlighting the position of the characters in the pitch black, and the phantom's face is completely destroyed, rendering a strong Gothic horror. In contrast, the music version uses a half-face mask and wild singing to interpret the phantom, full of aristocratic temperament. When Christie follows the phantom into the secret door, white smoke rises and the underground passage full of candles, highlighting the details, is like a deep scene Palace-like gorgeous. The relationship between sound and picture is even more majestic. When the manager insists on not letting Christine be the protagonist, the cheerful opera and the horror of the Phantom chasing and killing the screen controller form a sound and picture opposition. On the stage where the Phantom took Christie, the flaming flame symbolizes fear. The image of the devil in the black cloak and black riding boots overwhelmed a musical angel in a white dress. The use of the pair sing in the Phantom’s night eavesdropping on the two confessions, sword fighting in the graveyard, and other scenes, creating the ups and downs of the Phantom’s inner melody. The details of the black rose are well received.
