About
Celebrate the 100-year-anniversary of a silent era classic. Directed by Rupert Julian, and based on a novel by Gaston Leroux, The Phantom of the Opera stars Lon Chaney, in one of his most grotesque performances as the crazed man without a face, who lives in the catacombs beneath the Paris Opera, and falls in love with the voice of a young opera singer. Infatuated, he kidnaps her, dragging her to the depths below where she will sing only for him.
This screening will be accompanied by a live piano score, performed by BFI Southbank's resident pianist Meg Morley. Since performing for her first silent film in 2016, Meg has quickly become one of the UK's pre-eminent silent film accompanists, performing at various international film festivals and playing regularly at the London Cinema Museum.
