Did Emmy really sound differently in the film? I didn't even notice that. I'll probably see it again.

i think at points it seemed more clear. and stronger. may have just been the difference in speakers... im not sure. i'll pay more attention when i see it again.

My friend who was with me also noticed the difference in make up.

I definitely noticed the eye make up. that was strange. but, all I can think about right now is seeing it again! I wanna see it again!!! Partly because of "All I Ask of You". It's getting very little discussion time and WHY??? It was so frikin' romantic! I sobbed like a baby. And then, of course, I'm going back because Gerard is now a sex god.

I definitely noticed the sexpot eye makeup and suddenly heaving bosom. (Questionable because in Christine's opening scene with the opera costume, she's probably no more than an A cup, so I suppose the makers of Julia's Erin Brockovich bra had a field day!)

If you put your thumb over her face, you would think Pamela, right?

DAMMIT!! I just HAD to promise my fiancee that I would see it with her Sunday. I want to see it so bad that I am almost in tears.......especially after reading all these glowing reviews (especially from those that were very skeptical before they saw it). **Cries uncontrolably**

"I just think they should have used a younger actor for the circus scene, because he appeared to be the same age as Giry at that point and if that's true then he would have been the same age as her later only he wasn't. He's 30 something and she's 60 maybe 70 something and then she's still alive in 1911 when in 1881 she was old enough to be Christine's mother ??? does anyone remember the dates on Christine's tomb? did she die really young? "

I believe Madame Giry was only few years older than the Phantom -- assuming he was in his mid-30's she would likely be in her late 30's, certainly not be much more than early 40's. She certainly wasn't the 60-70 you think she was. Assuming she was 40 in 1870, she would have been 89 in 1919. At most she would have been in her early-mid 90's in 1919. Since young women in that period generally married around age 18, it would not be unusual for a woman in her mid-30's to have a 16 year old child.
