Oh yeah, I remembered I wanted to post this clipping from the online newspaper archive!
Some american actors and actresses review “The Phantom of the Opera” by Gaston Leroux
in “The Sun” on March 11th 1911, since it was just translated into English.
All think it is very suspensful, some of them romantic. Christie McDonald had the same reaction most of us have after reading the book for the first time, she really wants to visit the Palais Garnier now and search for the hidden passages…
And we can already see the two camps forming:
“Dear, dear Christine, the heroine, I was so glad when she was safe with Raoul at last.” -Marguerite Clark
“Fate was so unkind that I hoped poor Eric would have had a happier end. I think he is a most pathetic figure. For all his gruesome personality I think as kindly of him as of the more tender Cyrano.” -Hazel Dawn
Phantom of the Opera ( 2004 ) Trivia:
In Christine’s debut performance as the star of the Opera House, she wears a costume that is an exact replica of the outfit Empress Elizabeth (a.k.a. “Sisi”) of Austria wears in her most famous portrait. This includes the white diaphanous dress with full, billowing skirt, as well as the diamond star-bursts in her hair and earrings.
Perhaps we can frighten away the ghosts of, so many years ago … with a little illumination.
