Emotional and psychological abuse are silent forms of violence, like a toad in a pot of boiling water.Īll of the actors give top-notch performances. Anyway, there’s a misconception, especially in film and television, that abuse is only physical. I really appreciate that the relationship is emotionally abusive and portrayed negatively unlike a more recent film that was based on a certain Twilight fan fiction. Christine needs his instruction to be a better singer. I’ve always felt that the most dangerous villain is the villain who the protagonist needs. Even if he has his hand on her shoulder or his arm around her waist, there’s a prevailing sense of his dominance and power over her. Christine is both enamoured with and intimidated by her “Angel of Music.” The Phantom has a possessive grip on her even when he’s not in the room.

I think that a relationship that is physically chaste yet emotionally sexual is far more compelling than an explicit sex scene. There’s so much sexual tension without them getting physical.

The first half of the film is amazing! I have always been fascinated by the toxic relationship between Christine and the Phantom.

Unbeknownst to anyone else, she has been coached from afar by her “Angel of Music,” who turns out to be a disfigured composer only known as the Phantom. The Phantom of the Opera tells the story of a Swedish chorus girl named Christine Daae (pronounced as DIE-EH) who lands the lead role in an opera. This is my review of The Phantom of the Opera! The Phantom of the Opera is there…inside your mind! I guess I’ll just have to review, wait and see… Am I the only person who actually likes Joel Schumacher’s interpretation of Phantom of the Opera?
