[ STARS ]  THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA: HOW THE FILM WAS MADE
by ELLIS NASSOUR

The critics and movie-going public are weighing in -- not all positively -- on the fate of the $70-million film adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera. Here's the inside story of how it got to the screen, from ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER. Plus a visit with lyricist CHARLES HART.

"The Phantom of the Opera":

[ ND ]  No wonder he wears a mask BY JAN STUART
A smash-hit show that has run longer than a prison sentence for manslaughter has been transformed into a movie that crawls like a lifetime on death row.

[ CST ]  'Phantom' merits a look, but don't bother listening by Roger Ebert
This has been, I realize, a nutty review. I am recommending a movie that I do not seem to like very much. But part of the pleasure of moviegoing is pure spectacle -- of just sitting there and looking at great stuff and knowing it looks terrific.

[ NYP ]  MUSIC OF THE NIGHT
THERE are two kinds of love in my new film," says Joel Schumacher, director of Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Phantom of the Opera." "One is wholesome, romantic, loving. The other is dark, mysterious, obsessive. You know - the good kind."
Fans who like the good kind should journey to the Parisian haunts of the Phantom himself. Here's where to go.
