[00:01.50]THE STAGE OF THE PARIS OPERA, 1905
[00:02.00](The opera house is being auctioned off. RAOUL is seventy now)
[00:02.50]AUCTIONEER: Sold. Your number, sir? Thank you.
[00:08.93]Lot 665, ladies and gentlemen:
[00:12.03]a papier-maché musical box, in the shape of a barrel-organ.
[00:16.10]Attached, the figure of a monkey in Persian robes
[00:19.11]playing the cymbals. This item,
[00:21.36]discovered in the vaults of the theatre, still in working order.
[00:26.63]PORTER: Showing here. (He sets it in motion)
[00:28.68]AUCTIONEER: May I start at 20 francs? 15, then? 15 I am bid.
[00:32.92](The bidding continues. RAOUL buys the box for 30 francs)
[00:37.40]Sold, for 30 francs to the Vicomte de Chagny. Thank you, sir.
[00:42.59](The box is handed across to RAOUL. He studies it)
[00:47.92]RAOUL (quietly, half to himself, half to the box)
[00:49.92]A collector's piece indeed . .
[00:55.09]every detail exactly as she said . . .
[01:00.59]She often spoke of you, my friend ....
[01:04.11]Your velvet lining, and your figurine of lead...
[01:10.67]Will you still play,
[01:13.00]when all the rest of us are dead?
[01:19.19]AUCTIONEER: Lot 666, then: a chandelier in pieces.
[01:23.66]Some of you may recall the strange affair
[01:26.07]of the Phantom of the Opera:
[01:28.15]a mystery never fully explained.
[01:30.30]We are told ladies and gentlemen,
[01:31.99]that this is the very chandelier
[01:34.09]which figures in the famous disaster.
[01:37.67]Our workshops have restored it and fitted up parts of it
[01:41.07]with wiring for the new electric light,
[01:43.16]so that we may get a hint of what it may look like when re-assembled.
[01:47.74]Perhaps we may frighten away the ghost of so many years ago
[01:51.99]with a little illumination, gentlemen?
