The Phantom of the Opera

My favorite movie of all time would have to be The phantom of the opera and my favorite scene is the masquarade ball scene.



This is my favorite scene as its so colourful and as the movie is very sad and has an eerie feel to it this scene brightens the movie up with a cheerful song and colour and a cast full of happiness and celebration.

The music in this scene is very loud and creates a happier side to the characters. Its also a celebration for the owners of this theatre who have just opened a new show and want to celebrate the opening with all of there cast and crew and cloest family and friends. Unfortunantly a cruel encounter from the Phantom himself makes everyone scared and question there celbrations.



The masquarade ball has a lot of signiicance in not only this movie but in the times back then. Masquarade balls were very popular and a place were men a women would meet and dance and possibly encounter a life partner. It has relevance in this film as the phantom always wears a mask due to his disease and everyone else wears masks in celebration.

The whole scene is colourful and bright and i love this scene for the music and the costumes as its all colourful and enjoyable.

I rate this movie 5 stars and the scene about 4.5 stars.
