this movie is pretty darn far off from the book. don juan triumphant had the same meaning but the music and the wording sounds more like a lullabye is that how you spell it ? andrew lloyd webber's version was better. in this movie i think the phantom is too vicious in this movie. if you had no skin wouldn't be easier and less painful to just wear a mask? and what's with the villain winning !? the only scene that is relatively close to the book is the punjab lasso/street scene. well, except for the skinning part. and what's with the "London Opera House" , Christine "Day", and "Richard" ? they couldn't get the copyright on the names and yet they coul on the great opera, "Faust". by the way, who is that dude who always plays the devil in the movies [flashback during faust] oh, by the way, another relatively close scene is the graveyard scene.
