	Amazon.com: DVD: Day for Night (1973)
		What is most poignant about `Day For Night' are Truffaut's evocative, melancholic scenes of framing a scene, or editing a sequence, another filmmaker would have concentrated on the audience's response to the film, something more important than the actual film.
		`Day For Night' is a film that celebrates, not the making of forgettable, commercial cinema as it has been suggested, but the actual process of making a film.
		In one poignant, self-conscious scene, Truffaut himself tells Jean-Pierre Leaud, `We are only happy in our work', it's a beautiful scene, and one that summarizes `Day For Night': it is a film about making a film in which the characters are making a film, it is about itself.

	Day for Night (1973) : Directed by François Truffaut, reviewed by Nick Burton
		Every aspect of his life on and offscreen was informed by cinema, and Day for Night, one of the late director’s very best films, may well be the most engaging behind-the-scenes film ever made.
		At one point during Francois Truffaut's Day For Night (La Nuit Americaine), Ferrand, the genial film director played by Truffaut himself, is shown dealing with production problems with his film while he listens to composer Georges Delerue play excerpts of his musical score over the phone.
		In short, the soap opera offscreen proves infinitely more compelling than the movie being filmed by these people.

		Day for Night is basically an affectionate celebration of the filmmaking process by a director well known for his passionate devotion to it.
		The famous film critic Pauline Kael wrote that Day for Night was a movie for the “movie-struck, the essentially naïve – those who would rather see a movie, any movie (a bad one, a stupid one, or an evanescent, sweet-but-dry little wafer of a movie like this one), than do anything else.” Right-on, Pauline.
		Day for Night is one of his most beloved films though perhaps lagging behind The 400 Blows in familiarity to the American audience.

	Amazon.com: Video: A Night at the Opera (1935)
		After 70 years, "A Night At The Opera" is still considered one of the finest comedy films ever made, and is often called the funniest film the Marx Brothers ever made; there's also a handful of fans who consider "A Day At The Races" to be the funnier of the two.
		The new Warner DVD of A NIGHT AT THE OPERA is encoded for Region 1 and 4, and has a cleaner video transfer than I expected considering the age of the film.
		The 1935 comedy A NIGHT AT THE OPERA is a grab bag of a movie that includes physical gags, verbal gags, a romantic subplot, backstage intrigue, an operatic aria, an elaborate dance number, stunts, absurdity, and sentimentality.

	punk rock blues
		I remember one night at Max's Kansas City seeing a film of a Suicide performance and being riveted in my drunken chair, the very bejesus scared out of me. I regret never gatteing to see the band in person, but maybe the film was enough.
		One album (never mind the repackagings and live crap available on Amazon.) Bollocks was/is the only Sex Pistols record, perhaps the only punk rock record that was really neccessary.
		The modal guitar drone and viola hum and screech creepiness that poisoned the well of the Summer of Love two years hence was alive and apparent, fully formed and writhing in the summer heat of that small apartment, hissing back at the traffic noise that filtered through the window and onto this CD.

		If there is a perfunctory feeling to some of this after so many years, that doesn't stop people from humming along at the first strains of ""The Music of the Night,' or gasping when the Angel of Music floats down from the ceiling, or clapping for the copious glory notes.
		TAMPA … If you heard the haunting strains of a subterranean organ … or the distant ka-ching of a cash register … Wednesday night, it wasn't a dream: ""The Phantom of the Opera' is here.
		The touring version has all the bells and whistles that made the show a phenomenon in the first place: the falling chandelier, maudlin melodies galore and a combination of emotional and visual spectacle so over-the-top it's like Bollywood, Vegas and glam rock all rolled into one.

	Soap Opera
		Despite the fact that the soap opera is demonstrably one of the most narratively complex genres of television drama whose enjoyment requires considerable knowledge by its viewers, and despite the fact that its appeals for half a century have cut across social and demographic categories, the term continues to carry this sexist and classist baggage.
		Soap operas are of two basic narrative types: "open" soap operas, in which there is no end point toward which the action of the narrative moves; and "closed" soap operas, in which, no matter how attenuated the process, the narrative does eventually close.
		Irna Phillips wrote the soap opera as a sequel to the film, in which the couple's daughter moves to San Francisco and falls in love with a local doctor.

	Phantom of the Opera Review -- Roger Ebert's Overlooked Film Festival
		There are five levels of cellars beneath the opera, one descending beneath another in an expressionist series of staircases, ramps, trapdoors, and a Styxian river that the Phantom crosses in a gondola.
		This is held in the Opera House on the very next night, with the chandelier miraculously repaired and no mourning period, apparently, for the dozens of crushed and maimed.
		But as an exercise in lurid sensationalism, straining against technical limitations in its eagerness to overwhelm, the first of the many Phantom films has a creepy, undeniable power.

	A Night at the Opera (1935)
		"A Night at the Opera" is probably slightly less funny than "Duck Soup" (it is no criticism to say that of any film), but it has more of a story to connect the great comic bits.
		And for sustained zany humor, the climactic sequence at the opera might be the funniest part of all.

		From the beginning, Avnet indulges in freak-out cuts and lighting; it takes a minute to realize that the girl sketching Moore at a nightclub table is the model he ogled on the runway.
		Their one-night stand is fractured and oblique, an avant-garde slide show.

	USATODAY.com - A night at the 'Opera'
		But now that Driver has surrendered to The Music of the Night as the diva-licious comic relief Carlotta in the long-awaited film version of The Phantom of the Opera, she at least understands why 80 million theatergoers since its London premiere in 1986 have swooned over the lavish gothic fantasy about obsessive love.
		In the 1925 silent horror classic with Lon Chaney, the most memorable of the Phantom's dozen or so previous incarnations on the big screen, the opera ghost is portrayed as a monstrous madman.
		Judging by her just-released debut album, Everything I've Got in My Pocket, the 34-year-old actress and singer is more likely to honor requests for Springsteen than Memory from Cats.

	The Avengers Forever: Gareth Hunt
		2001 saw him in a regular role in the ITV soap opera, Night and Day, and most recently he appeared in a cameo role in Eastenders--one story has it that he had earlier tried out for a regular role in that series, but was turned down because of his rhyming slang name.
		Strangeness: The Encyclopedia of Fantastic Film and Television lists Gareth Hunt as playing the uncredited role of "small boy" in 1977's Count Dracula.
		Returning to acting, he achieved some degree of (perhaps dubious) notoriety for appearing, together with Liza Goddard and Una Stubbs, in a number of Nescafé coffee commercials directed by Carlos Pasini Hansen.
