Composer Winslow Leach (William Finley) is determined to seek revenge on Swan (Williams), an evil record tycoon who steals his pop cantana of the Faust legend to launch his enemy’s palace as the mysterious Phantom of the Paradise and continues to plan his gruesome retaliation.
Drawing upon influences of classic genre literature, including The Phantom of the Opera and The Picture of Dorian Gray, this visionary musical extravaganza is cited as the favourite film of Daft Punk.
