We got the movie last week, and have probably watched it about 10
times...it's SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!! We got the 2 dvd set, and the
second DVD was worth the price...lots of really cool stuff on how they made it,
how the original musical came about, etc. We've sort of gone into a phantom
craze at our house. We're reading the original turn of the century
book...really interesting, says it's based on real people. My 11 year old son dug out
his dracula cape and runs around outside with our 9yo foster daughter, playing
Phantom...We are now "hungry" for musicals and are heading to the library in
search of fiddler on the roof, annie, and any others we can find!

The original website (for the musical) has a really cool part under
"education" with a lot of neat questions, thought provoking stuff, related to the
movie...one of my kids started a few of the "projects" on her own...for example,
write a sequel, or change the ending, or write about the phantom's life
before the story (as a child...) THere's also message boards on the phantom
movie site...lots of teenagers there.

Anyhoo,,,..just wanted to suggest it.

My daughter saw it last night and loves it! Do you have a link for the
website that has the "education" part on it. I just did a search but all the
sites I tried didn't have it.

Thanks!
Lorrie
