PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE 

Directed by Brian DePalma | 91 min | USA | 1974 | PG

Starring: Paul Williams, Jessica Harper, William Finley, Gerrit Graham

50th ANNIVERSARY SCREENING - PAUL WILLIAMS IN ATTENDANCE!

A brilliant young composer sells his soul for the woman he loves, all so she can perform the music he's written just for her. But when an unscrupulous record producer steals his compositions, the Phantom is born! 

Brian DePalma's epic Faustian rock opera/tragic love story was a box office flop when 20th Century Fox released it in November of 1974. Well, everywhere but Winnipeg, where it played non-stop for months and months and is still revered to this day!

With a classic soundtrack filled with incredible original songs by superstar songwriter and star of the film Paul Williams, Phantom of the Paradise has truly stood the test of time and is much more appreciated now than it was then. 

On this, the eve of its 50th Anniversary, experience the greatest rock opera ever made, followed by an illuminating post-screening discussion with Oscar and Emmy-winning legend "Swan" himself… Paul Williams. 

Paul Williams will be in attendance for an EXTENDED Post- Screening Q&A!
