Phantom of the Paradise
Nov. 19th, 2008 09:42 amLast night I inflicted one of my movie joys on jedifreeman, kittee and
raingirllori. (Well not
really on Lori as she spent the entire time playing Spore instead of
watching the movie.) I showed them Phantom of the Paradise
(1974) (Wikipedia entry). The story in the movie is a mashup between Phantom of
the Opera and Faust set in a 70s glam rock style.
In searching for the soundtrack and some images I found the Swan Archives, a website dedicated to the life of Swan. There’s a lot of great memorabilia by one obsessive fan cataloged on that site. There’s an idea… No! I need no new hobbies!
