Argento's POTO and some pretty funny links

[my_daroga]

First of all, anyone with an interest in Phantom of the Opera should run right over to tkp's journal and read her thinky thots on Dario Argento's version. It may come as a surprise, but I really love this one. Most of what I love about it is enumerated in her list. I know a lot of POTO people avoid this film on principal ("He's not even ugly! I heard there's rat!sex!") but despite its rather appalling features there's something really interesting about it, too.

So go read. I can't believe I live with this girl. Life is amazing.

My poor old writer's brain just explodes when I see too many versions. If I got through the week of Englund's vs Dance... I can get through anything.

Maybe it can be some warped drinking game--every time you see a rat...

You'd be drunk by the credits, I think.

I know what you mean. There are times I have to stay away from POTO interpretations. I'm back out of that right now.
