@elsabear99, In the Kopit version from 1990 shown in the screen shots in this video you mean? Well, sort of. You should see for yourself. In addition there are some "tricks" with the Phantom's masks that tease then audience. I like the fact that they are using opera music in this film. The duet towards the end is heart-wrenching and very beautiful. Keeping in mind the story of the opera it is taken from, it is a selection made with careful though, I think.
Did you know that Lloyd Webber's sequel will premiere in the 100th anniversary year of THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA? Gaston Leroux's original novel was first serialised in 1909 and first published in book format in 1910.

Thank you so much for sharing this. "Music of the Night" has been my favorite song since I was fifteen, and I've never heard anyone but Michael Crawford do it justice until now. Mikael Samuelsson is a magnificent successor.
i love love love his voice so much...... how he rolls the r's is absolutely perfect, as is his accent ^^ omg, it was beautiful!!! how sweet his voice is...
I completely agree... Charles Dance is so elegant,... and his performance is great... truly he is my favourite phantom af all... his character has... something... so beautiful, so tragic at the same time...
the swedish rendition of phantom of the opera was definately up high there among the best. i had the honor of attending the premiere of it back in '89
Augh...WHY didn't you finish the song!?!?!? I was sooo enjoying that rendition! I've never heard it sung completely in swedish b4...that was BEAUTIFUL!!! And a very nice slideshow to accompany it.
i love charles dance, hes so perfect as the phantom...i love him. he and gerry butler are my fave phantoms. please check my channel and comment if you like it. i accept evey friend invite, and my msn is written there if you wanna talk. i love yourvideo really its one of the best ive seen!! its favorite!! =)
DANCE IS THE BEST ! I've seen basically every other Phantom, and really he just hit the part the best and added his own special beautiful touch to it !
Charles Dance definitely has the best look for the Phantom. I missed the trademark "hat and cloak" look in the 2004 movie (even the live musical had it!). He's also perfect physically!
Mikael Samuelsson is the only musical Phantom for me. I simply accept no alternatives. All other international Phantoms are like jokes in comparison (in my wee humble opinion of course)!
The Swedish version of "The phantome of the Opera" is my all time favourite! Fell in loved in the musical/Opera the first time I heard it, and I was only 7. ;)
Charles Dance was great as Erik. I love that movie. I was so happy that they never showed behind his mask the whole movie. Leave it to the imagination.
I have never heard it in Swedish before, but he has a very good voice, Mikael Samuelsson I mean :). And I do so agree - Charles Dance is one of the best Phantoms. Goes to favs. Cheers!
OMG! This made me meltt!! <3 <3
The crazy thing is though, i refuse to see what Charles Dance looks like other then as Erik, Hes just so beautiful as a Phantom! <333

Hm jag har en lärare som är jäkla like Charles Dance.
Tyvärr känner jag bara igen han från Alien 3, Den Sista Actionhjälten och en bondfilm.
Men jag har läst att han är väldigt duktig
