Hugh really goes for it in this scene. For those who say it's uncomfortable when he full on caresses himself, well, it's kind of supposed to be. The pleasure he gets from Christine's voice borders on if not crosses into sexual gratification.

15:28 He did the hair slick with one hand and I have to say it was incredibly attractive

28:31 excuse me but her voice is like fkg crystal wtf? its so clear

I get the feeling that the hair slick started out of necessity. Some of the early Phantoms remove the hat quite violently, so best check that the wig is still in place. From there, it became a tradition. Also, West End Phantoms tend not to touch their Christines to turn her around. Thanks for the awesome video!

Yes, it was definitely out of necessity. It actually began in rehearsals when Michael Crawford noticed that his wig was frizzy after taking off the hat and smoothed it down. Gillian Lynne, so the story goes, "melted" on the spot and asked that it become part of the blocking. And so it has been.

@@PrismsofGlass Also the phantom singing Music of the night as if he is out of breath at first was due to an accident during a preview/dress rehearsal where the boat started to catch on fire and Michael had to quickly grab sarah and help put out the flames before quickly getting into song where he was understandably out of breath so he was kind of panting as he sang the opening line "Night" pant "time" pant "Sharpens" .

I’ve watched this video more times than I care to admit- Here’s a list of my favs: 1:17 - Earls hand movements are hypnotic, usually I like a hair slick but he more than made up for it!! 5:30 - Love the little head nod he does!! He also looks very imposing/intimidating 6:00 - The way his hand lingers by his mouth; also the movement he does with his hands over his chest!!! It’s so different I love it 8:05 - My top favorite!! THE SMILE. He’s unhinged and amazingly creepy and I could write a whole essay on this but I’ll spare you 13:20 - Just overall a wonderful phantom! The way he walks around her, he looks so infatuated with Christine 26:14 - When he holds onto Christine for a second after he turns her around!! Also A+ cape flourish 32:22 - Love his hand movements and self caress. He reeeally enjoys Christines singing Thank you Prism for this wonderful vid!!

Greg Mills at 6:21. Is he drooling?

I concur with some other commenters that I do like it when the Phantom touches himself a little. I want to see some of that ecstasy he’s having. Though I do think some of them go a little too hard on the lingering and should restrain it a bit, so it seems like it’s a subconscious movement- a fleeting, light caress. Like they are so caught up in the moment they don’t really know what they’re doing with their hands. Even the light grazing of the edge of their coat is weirdly effective for me. I do like when they slick their hair back overall, no matter how they do it, so simple yet something so alluring about it. That said, I really liked Earl Carpenter’s rendition and there was no self-touching- not even a hair slick- so obviously no hard rules for me, but he had such a commanding way of “conducting” Christine that it made up for the lack of touching.

I quite like the ones where they linger on themselves. Is it uncomfortable? Yes. But I think that’s what makes it so perfect. The Phantom is a creep, he’s crazy, and no matter how misunderstood he is he is a _bad_ _bad_ man. The lingering and feeling themselves up I think shows hints of just how weird and crazy he is. He’s not Just Christine’s misunderstood teacher, he’s a murderous old man who stalked her and played on her daddy issues to get her to trust him.

Ghost in the mirror, is it weird that I one hundred per cent agree with everything you just said but also believe they would have been the absolute perfect couple in another universe? :/ Like, they have so much in common, he supported her career (albeit using very misguided and unethical methods lol), and she's clearly attracted to him in this adaptation (and, I would argue, in a weird, twisted way in the Leroux novel as well)... such a bummer that he happens to be a sociopath. ^^ I think that's why this musical hits me so hard emotionally. Like, the fact that women have to choose between safety and having an interesting and adventurous life/being with an interesting person. :/ I'm not expressing it very well but maybe people will know what I mean.

Yes. In the novel, which I am now tempted to read again, he is a very intelligent also manipulative. He knew exactly how to gain Christine's trust and how to get her close to him emotionally so he could control her. I also love the actors who sound a bit older than Christine because he is suppose to be old enough to be her father which was another way he controlled her (sadly as someone whom when she was in 20's didn't have a close father figure, I learned the hard way that not all older men want to take you under your wing, some are wolves in sheep clothing like Erik).
