What else can I say, since I saw the "Phantom of the Opera" movie a month ago, the familiar Phantom of the Opera has been lingering in my ears. Today I finally couldn't help it, I found almost all the versions of this song I could find on the Internet and listened to it, and found that I still liked the version in the movie the most. It would be wrong to say that it was preconceived, because what I heard first seemed to be Fei Xiang. Of all the versions, the film's version is the most powerful, the most bewitching, and the most depressing. The Phantom in other versions is too affectionate and feels soft. You know, the depth of love can't get the last mad and kill, and the weak and affectionate finally hurt and kill, these are definitely two kinds of men in heaven and earth. Therefore, the Phantom in the movie is more touching. Of course, this was intentional by the movie. In the original musical, there were not so many phantoms in Christine's emotional rendering. When the scale of the description leans toward the Phantom, there's no reason not to like him. The last few lines of Phantom in the movie version: "Sing for me! Sing, my angle. Sing for me!" are like moaning and begging, with a magical effect.
Of course, the movie version of this song also has its shortcomings. The power is too strong and it is inevitably stiff, which makes people not only wonder how the Phantom of Genius can sing so badly. Of course, I can't say that he is bad, just a little bit worse than the character's excellence.
Writing this, I suddenly realized that it's not that other versions are bad, it's the actor who performed the Phantom too well! So much so that I fell in love with Wujiwu, and fell in love with that spell-like voice. Then this has to mention the actor who played the Phantom: Gerard Butler (Gerard Butler). This is an actor that I hadn't paid much attention to before. When I searched, I was surprised to find that he was also featured in "Spartan 300" and "PS I Love You". It's that he changed so much that I didn't recognize it... But of the three films, I still like "The Phantom" the most. And I believe that this role has brought him the greatest influence. Although "S" is also all the rage, it is mainly the film effect that attracts attention. Instead, the actors' performances are obscured and very face-to-face. "Song" is enough for me to watch it several times in a row. I have watched "Song" and I know how it is, so let me watch it again? Well...I have to think about it.
Similar to the Phantom, V for V for Vendetta also wears a mask, is a gentleman, has serious mental trauma, and does not hesitate to kill for his beliefs... I like both. What does this mean? A man of grace is a killer! For me who is getting older, the prince is too naive, and the charm of the earl is revealed.
And the female character's choice of 16-year-old Emmy Rossum over "The Other" proved to be quite sensible. Although I personally don't think Emmy Rossum is pretty, it's very important that she's the same age as she was set in the musical. Don't say that foreigners are young and old, and they can't tell when they are old. When I listen to several other Phantom of the Opera, I can clearly feel that the female singer's voice is not as young as Amy Rosen.
Generally speaking, the movie still follows the original plot, except for some changes that have to be made because it is a movie. This is one of the important reasons for the success of the film. In this way, people who have seen the original musical will resonate, and those who have not seen it will not feel sorry. To promote this musical to more people in the form of a movie is also the original intention of the director and screenwriter.
Finally, recommend a few important plots about "The Phantom". The first of course is when Phantom of the Opera sounds, especially the last few lines of Phantom. The second is the Phantom's body language in The Music of the Night. The third is the horrified rage of the Phantom when the mask is taken off by Christine. At the New Year's party, the magician-like performance and the demon-like momentum can be counted as one, and the despair during the performance of "Don Juan's Victory" can be counted as one. Finally, it is also the most testing of acting skills. After Kristin kisses the Phantom, the Phantom's love-hate relationship and happiness are all shown on the actors' faces~
PS: Anyone who has watched the movie carefully, please help me calculate how old Kristin is Years old, the Phantom should be about the same age when the film starts, I really can't do anything about the numbers.
