THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (1925/1929)

Special Features: 100th Anniversary | Live musical accompaniment by Donald Sosin and Joanna Seaton

A vengeful, masked composer (Lon Chaney) prowls the depths of the Paris Opera House, appearing only when his love for the beautiful young singer Christine (Mary Philbin) can be stifled no longer. Lon Chaney, “the Man of a Thousand Faces,” created one of his most iconic and haunting performances in this hugely influential gothic melodrama.
