Tonight’s triple feature charts the modern musical’s evolution from stage grandeur to cinematic intimacy. Les Misérables (2012), long trapped in development, found redemption under Tom Hooper’s live-sung realism, winning three Oscars and redefining the genre’s emotional rawness. The Phantom of the Opera (2004), Andrew Lloyd Webber’s own adaptation directed by Joel Schumacher, preserved the opulent theatricality of its 1986 hit, trading subtlety for spectacle and box office success. Tim Burton’s Sweeney Todd (2007) stripped Sondheim’s operatic dread to its bones—industrial London rendered in blood and ash, with Johnny Depp’s haunted performance earning two Oscars. Together they form a triptych of obsession and redemption—three wounded men seeking salvation through music, their worlds collapsing between faith, art, and violence. From the barricades to the opera house to Fleet Street, these films trace the death of theatrical innocence and the last roar of the sung confession.
