Phantom of the Opera (1943)
Nelson Eddy, Susanna Foster and Claude Rains star in a luxurious classic from the heyday of Universal horror!
Following a tragic accident that leaves him disfigured, crazed composer Erique Claudin transforms into a masked phantom who schemes to make beautiful young soprano Christine Dubois the star of the opera and wreak revenge on those who stole his music.
