The Phantom of the Opera
1925 - silent • Lon Chaney, Mary Philbin • Live Accompaniment by Randy Woltz on the Mighty Wurlitzer • • Introduction by Antonia Carlotta, creator of the YouTube Channel Universally Me • In this original silent version of “Phantom” Lon Chaney embodies the title character, a badly disfigured man in the catacombs of the Paris Opera House. Chaney’s performance evokes both terror and sadness, even in the early scenes when only his shadow is shown. There is nothing like the original! Antonia's great uncle is Universal Pictures Founder Carl Laemmle, and she will introduce the movie.
