**__ThiS FacE, WhicH EarneD A MotheR´S FeaR AnD LoathinG__**

Every love story has its happy ending, except this...

While playing "Don Juan", Christine finally removes the Phantom´s mask, and he, overrun by rage, takes her to his dungeon, and forces her to wear the wedding dress he made for her, but what he ignores, is that Raoul followed them, leaded by Mme Giry.

Meanwhile, the whole theatre´s on fire, because of the swarovsky chandelier that fell to the ground.

CHRISTINE: She wears her wedding dress, which is made of white cloth. The vest is made of white silk, and the neckline is adorned with withe trimmings, as well as the sleeves.

The skirt, made of white stamped cloth and white chiffon, is embellished with a white flower.

She wears the engagement ring Raoul gave her.

THE PHANTOM: He wears the Don Juan gown, without the vest, cape and jaqcket.

As Christine took his mask away, he shows his facial deformity.

The phantom, full of despair, ties Raoul to the fence, and threatens Christine, for if she doesn´t spend her days with him, she will send Raoul to his grave...

Then Christine realises that, if she doesn´t accept, he´ll kill Raoul, so she eventually, goes to the Phantom and kiss him passionately..while Raoul watches frightened.

But, when she kisses him, the Phantom notices what he´s doing, and steps aback, letting Christine and Raoul free...living alone and tormented for the rest of his life...

That´s why I say that a happy ending..this is definetly not that...if it were, Christine would leave Raoul behind

and stay the spend of her days with the Phantom....but that probably wouldn´t happen, for that´s what I´d do if I were her....

Pitiful creature of darkness...what kind of life have you known??---God give me courage to show you....you are not alone!!

No doubt she´ll do her best, it´s true, her voice is good, she knows, though, should she will to excell, she has much still to learn, if pride will let her return to me..her teacher...her teacher...

You belong to me!!

**__SaY YoU´lL SharE WitH ME OnE LovE, OnE LifetimE__**

This scene belongs to the opera "IL Mutto", in which Christine was suposed to play the main role, the countess, and Carlotta, the silent one, the pageboy, as the Phantom said one one of his letters.

But the two managers decided to change the roles, so Carlotta would play eha countess, and Christine, the pageboy...So, when the Phantom sees their roles changed..he suddenly appears at the top of the theater...

Christine is surprised by an unexpected visit, her childhood sweetheart, Raoul...

__Those picnics in the attic...

**__ThE TrumpetS OF CartagE ResounD, HerE, RomanS NoW, AnD TremblE__**

Back to The Phantom of The Opera.
Some of Christine´s gown were missing, but now I´ll show you.

This one is the ballerina gown, for "Hannibal", the first opera.

Christine wears this gown for the rehearsal, when Raoul is introduced as the new patron of the Opera Populaire.

The ballerina gown is composed by a stamped soutien, inspired on the ancient

roman slave-girls. This soutien is made of soft cotton, painted and ornated with brightspots and with golden cord. The skirt is made of mustard chiffon, vaporous cloths, suitable for dance, so it´s very lightweight. It has a dark leather belt, also embellished with sparkling spots all around her waist, and with red cloth with golden filigranes.

Her hairstyle is very simple, her hair is tied with golden ropes.

She wears a pair of golden earrings.


__Sad return to find the land we love, threatened once more by roman far-reaching grasp

**__RemembeR US__**

The day came, when she could finally give her husband and fellows spartans the chance to win with honor and pride...but not all was planned...
Gorgo speaks to the council with an awesome gown, my favourite.
It´s a garnet gown, totally different than the others.
It has long and vaporous steamy sleeves, with gloden ribbon at their edges, that leave her bare arms. It also has a golden ribbon at the neckline, where is placed the spartan emblem. The gown is tied to her waist with a leather rope.
Golden bracelets and earrings.

__I am not here to represent Leonidas, for his actions speak louder than my words ever could...I am here for all those voices which cannot be heard, mothers, daughters, fathers, sons...300 families that bleed for our rights...and for the very principles this room was built upon. We´re at war gentlemen!!We must send the entire Spartan army to aid our king in the preservation not just of ourselves, but of our children. We must send it for the preservation of liberty, send it for justice, send it for law and order, send it ofr reason...but most importantly, we must send our army for hope!!Hope that a king and his men will not be wasted to the pages of History, that their courage bounds us together, that we are made stronger by their actions...and that your choices today reflect their bravery...

Finally, in spite of all her efforts to help them...Dilios comes back to Sparta, alone.
And he carries with him a message for the queen, the fang she gave him, was given back to her, so she knew that she will never see her husband again...and so did her son...

This is the most emotional part, when Pleistarcus runs to his mother and hugs her when he knows that his father won´t come back...Then, Gorgo gives Pleistarcus the fang...and embrace him in the cornfield.

__My queen...My wife...My love...

**__It´S NoT A SecreT ThaT TheroN WantS WhaT YoU HavE__**

Gorgo finally gest her chance to speak at the council chamber, but she knows that firstly, she´ll have to persuade Theron, for without his aproval, her words would be never listened...

She waits for the counselor in the courtyard.

She wears always the white flax dress, tied with white flax to her neck, and hunging from the neckline; a golden string makes the cloth stick to her body.

Golden bracelet and earrings.

__You´ll speak to the council within two days.

__My husband does not have two days...

**__FreedoM IS NoT FreE AT AlL, ThaT IT ComeS WitH ThE HighesT OF CostS...ThE PricE OF BlooD__**

Once Leonidas is gone, Gorgo tries desperately to aid him, so she demands her counselor to speak in the council chamber.

For this occasion, she wears the same white flax dress, this time tied with golden strings around her shoulders and all along her neckline, and around her waist.

__My queen, the courtyard is a better place for a woman...

__I know counselor, but i cannot go further for i don´t feel safe anywhere, even the walls of my own home have ears and eyes...

**__GoodbyE MY LovE__**

Gorgo and Pleistarcus wait in the spartan cornfield, where the 300 men are ready to march to defend their country against the Persian threat.
Gorgo wears a white flax dress, tied with leather ropes in the neck, hip and waist. She also wears two golden bracelets in both arms, the fang that will give to her husband not to forget her in battle, and a pair of golden earrings.

Leonidas wears his leather

breeches, and his cape, red-blood this time, with the spartan emblem. He carries his sword, made of cardboard and painted on dark-brown and silver for the blade; his spear; his shield, made of cardboard and foam, and painted in gold; and his helmet, made of cardboard and dark fur, and finally painted in gold.

__Come back with your shield...or on it

__Yes, milady...

**::...Goodbye my love..he doesn´t say it..there´s no room for softness, when only the hard and strong may be called themselves Spartans...only the HarD...only the StronG...::**

**__WE SpartanS, HavE OuR ReputatioN TO ConsideR__**

Queen Gorgo, Leonidas´wife and queen of Sparta, the bravest and the toughest woman of her time.

She wears a typical spartan dress, made of soft white flax. The dress sticks to the body a few leather strings, around her neck and waist.
From her left shoulder hung a piece of cloth, simulating a cloak, attached by the leather string.

Gorgo also wears a golden bracelet on the top of her right arm, a pair of golden earrings and a wolf´s fang on her neck, which was a gift from her husband, the fang that gave him the kingship of Sparta.



This is the reception to the Persian messenger.
For this occasion, Leonidas wears his leather breeches, and a dark leather and green satin cape, with a brooch of the spartan blazon and a little leather sandles. He carries his sword.
Gorgo´s gown is the same than the shown above.

**__IN ThE EnD, MY SoN, WhaT YoU GivE IN BattlE, WilL BE ReturneD TO YoU__**

Here it goes, probably my favourite mivie of all times, ...300!!

The cinematography, the scenery, the visual effects, but most importantly, the Gerard Butler´s perfomance in the role of the spartan king Leonidas!!I LOVE IT!!

This is one of the firsts scenes shown in the film, when Leonidas is teaching his son, Pleistarcus, to fight, as every spartan child.

The gowns are too simple, just a trainig gown for them both.

Leonidas´gown is made of green satin and dark leather, and Pleistarcus´ is made of mustard cotton.

They´re fighting in the courtyard.

**__DoN JuaN TriumphanT__**

The theatre was full, the public takes its place, the spectators wait, expectant, anxious that the show will begin...the first chords of the opera begin to sound...the orchestra plays, the stage is lit, the curtain rises!!

Christine comes out, knowing that it will probably be the last time she´ll be there...

This is the last opera in the movie, Don Juan Triumphant, that Erik wrote just for them.

CHRISTINE: She wears her "Don Juan" gown, composed by a vaporous shirt that leaves her bare shoulders, a black silken corset, embellished with a rose in the neckline and golden chains at the waist,a mustard-colored chiffon scarf tied to her waist and a

yellow skirt of tulle and chiffon. She wears golden jewelry, a golden bracelet and a rose in her hair.
She carries a flower basket.

ERIK: He is Don Juan, so he wears a white chiffon shirt, a dark-brown spanish vest very tight to his torax, and a suit of the same style and colour, black tight pants, leather boots and a spanish-style dark cloak, adorned with red and orange flowers at its ends.
He wears his black mask.

**__WishinG YoU WerE SomehoW HerE AgaiN__**

Christine goes to the cementery, to visit her father´s grave, and so she chooses a dark gown, composed by a black corset with chiffon in the neckline and at the edge of the sleeves, a black chiffon skirt and a dark cloak.

She also wears a foulard around her neck, and a bunch of red roses.

There she´s surprised by the Phantom and when she´s almost his, Raoul saves her and begins a swordfight with Erik.

One of my favourite gowns, and Marie´s favourite one!!;P

you were once a friend and father...then my world was shattered...

**__WE NeveR SaiD OuR LovE WaS EvergreeN OR AS UnchanginG AS ThE SeA, BuT IF YoU CaN StilL RemembeR, StoP AnD ThinK OF ME__**

The first opera-gown ever shown in the movie...and it´s so cool, so sentimental...so romantic...

It is one of my first OOAK, made barely four months ago.

Christine wears an awesome dress, composed by a white silken corset with sparkling ornaments in the neckline, and a skirt, made of white silk and chiffon, also ornated with bright spots and two blue ties hanging on each side of the skirt.

Her hairstyle is incredibly amazing, her hair is combed into a huge braid, ornated with lots of diamond pins.

In this case, Erick, does not wear his velvet cloak...

**::...The Music OF ThE NighT...::**
