"I'm a big fan of 'A Little Opera Goes a Long Way,' by Sky Sailing: [sings] Pretend you're not alone / Like you are center stage on Broadway / 'Cause when you are on your own / A little opera goes a long way. That was my theme song for the first few days of living solo."

The Phantom Of The Opera
This film is one of the classics.
Phantom Of The Opera is a musical, the songs were composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber, a very knows British composer that has written a lot of other songs to other very famous musicals (ex: Cats and Evita).
The film takes place is Opera Popullaire and it starts when Christine (the main character), a ballerina, replaces Carlotta, the opera main star and becomes famous due to her signing classes with her mysterious teacher, The Phantom. In the meanwhile she founds her childhood old love and they fall in love again leaving The Phantom heart broken. It’s a romance triangle.
Its dramatic. Emotional. And very worth the watch.

Okay... I know its a teen/college kid soap opera, so expectations shouldn’t be high, but seriously? Over dramatization. Predictable stories. Tacky, unimaginative dialogue. Bleh

Rolling Stone's 276th greatest album of all time
Insane, stoner funky space opera. There are no more words to describe it. An entertaining listen, just very very odd.

Perhaps the series will be 4* overall - I feel like this one wasnt quite as entertaining as when we first met teen Rin but still dramatic and fun like a soap opera

"While watching this masterpiece for the tenth time, I’ve rediscovered it as a classic tragedy, like a verist opera. I often return to these scenes, as if once again meeting a dear friend."

Rolling Stone's 231st greatest album of all time
Brilliant rock opera album. The utter nonsense of "I'm in Love with my Car" aside, the album is full of superb soaring epic rock songs.

"Quite simply one of the strongest and most impressive feature debuts in cinematic history. The end sequence, with its fused alchemy of opera, movement, and camera as Lou Castel writhes on the floor, is unforgettable."

I felt this movie couldn't really make up it's mind whether it was a biop or a rock opera...enjoyed it & made me feel some sympathy for Elton but to me it just seemed disjointed
