A magnificent production starring the incomparable Claude Rains, this is definitely grade "A" Universal from top to bottom. I believe it is one of the few Universals of the era to be shot in color? Gothic black & white cinematography is the perfect vehicle for Dracula, Frankenstein, The Wolfman, et al, and I would not care to see them colorized. Likewise, lush technicolor seems a perfect fit for this particular incarnation of the timeless Phantom of the Opera tale.
