DVD Description
Former disco diva, Broadway star, and paramour of Andrew Lloyd Webber, vocalist Sarah Brightman is a mistress of reinvention and drama. The pixie-esque woman with an operatic vocal range reinvents herself once again with LA LUNA, the live version of her 2000 album. Originally aired on PBS, this spectacular concert paired innovative, mystical staging with a diverse set list of pop classics, Broadway show tunes, and classical standards. Directed by renowned concert director Bruce Gowers (who has worked with Ricky Martin and Britney Spears), this performance displays yet another wonderful side of Sarah Brightman.

...This movie version of the original stage show, is breathtaking. Every scene is cram packed full of 19thcentury gothic art.
From the outset, as soon as the chandelier lifts to the roof, you know this is somthing special, the only thing thats missing in this film is sarahbrightman and michael crawford.
there are some stunning scenes, such as the masqurade ball, and the point of no return. audiences are left on the edge of there seat.
if you buy this film now its one you will treaseure forever.
AMAZING, STUNNING.
What more can i say. Andrew lloyd Webber is the best composer in his genre by far.
If you like this why not see the stage version LIVE its even better. how ALW does it i dont know, just pure genious...

...by Andrew Lloyd Webber is stirring and always makes me tingle with excitement.
I would recommend this film to anyone, even if you think you don't like opera or musicals you should really watch this film just for the opulance of the sets and costumes and for one of the best performances from Minnie Driver I have seen.
BONUS DISC
The Making of Phantom of The Opera
The cast and crew go behind the scenes of the film and there are the screen tests for Emmy Rossum and Gerard Butler, it also shows the amount of work that goes into this sort of production. You will also see the special effects, make-up and costume design, there are hidden features as well.
You can enjoy music videos featuring Michael Crawford, SarahBrightman and Cliff Richard.
There is also a set of pictures taken from the film inside the DVD box. Because my son bought the DVD...
