The Phantom Of The Opera (2004) Past The Point Of No Return FULL scene 

Raoul standing there be like👁👄👁

The way Emmy Rossum sings "consume us" is so raw and emotional

Let's all be real here, Christine know she was singing with the Phantom the minute he opened his mouth. And she's totally into it. And Raoul knows it. Like, you can literally see on his face that moment of realization of "Oh crap, how the heck can I possibly compete with that?"

I like the movie version best. In the original musical Christine is not fully aware that she is singing with the Phantom the whole time. To me this version is much more intriguing, because she is actually making a choice, and taking control of the situation. One can read it as she "playing along" to unmask the Phantom, but I like to see it as actually her offering a different ending to him. She unmasks him but not as an accusation, not as an escape, or a desperate measure. She is engaging his true self, and still caring for him. It's HIM who can't stand being unmasked. So much deeper emotions involved.

Gerard is so seductive while singing past the point of no return

I really like this version so much more than even the book. The music really magnifies the emotional experiences of each character. I wish they would've included the Persian and delved into Erik's past, how after running away from home he joined the circus where he learned to sing and do magic, then working for and being targeted by two royal families. Then how he grew tired and wanted a normal life, and he was contracted to build the opera house and in the process built himself a home and many trap doors throughout.

The chemistry between Gerard & Christine as these two iconic characters is so incredible and so strong!! I get goosebumps every time I watch this movie and watch the way he holds and touches her!!!

I have such a passion for Gerard Butler in this movie. He took lessons to sing for his part, his costumes are absolutely sexy, and Emmy is fantastic.

One of my favorite parts of the film

"When will the blood begin to race" Such an intense line

Gerard Butler deserved an Oscar for this role, he was magnificent in it. And this was his own singing voice, he wasn't dubbed. Love this scene, thanks for posting.

I don't know if it's accidental that the shoulders of her dress fall when she says "defenseless and silent, now I am here with you" but it matches the song and expressions sooo perfectly!

Gerard is best phantom. He brings the most emotion and character with his gritty and sometimes tempered voice and seductive whispering.

Is it weird that I actually like Gerard more than Ramin. I mean I feel like Gerard fits the role better vocally and physically. Like it’s more aggressive and emotional. Also Christine, it’s more soft and innocent.

“Past the point of no return, no backward glances.” Gives me the gooseys! The way her facial expression goes from fear, to intrigue and then back to almost guilt is so incredible I love how this song is like every song combined.

He sings this with so much passion and love.

To me this scene has always been Christine (movie version) allowing her physical attraction to the Phantom let loose under the guise of going along with the play, and for a brief moment when he sings All I Ask of You, she opens her eyes and realizes she actually has true love for him too. All the while Raoul realizes that in this brief moment in time, he does not have her heart and the Phantom does and this is why he gets all teary, even a little angry (maybe at Christine?). Raoul also realizes that even if he and Christine marry, he will likely never have the physical connection the Phantom has with her in this scene.

We all have our weird hills to die on, and this being the best version of Phantom is mine. It’s so weird and overripe and sexy. Perfect material for Schumacher.

When I tell you this scene rewired my brain when I watched it as a kid...

Raoul’s face is the best part of this! 😂

This film needs to be re-appraised now because it was not acknowledged to be as great as it is. I saw it upon its first release and was very much impressed by it. Everyone else I met seemed determined to denigrate it in comparison to the Broadway production. I loved it in 2004 and loved it even more after seeing Phantom on Broadway. This movie is stunning. Gerard Butler is the perfect Phantom. Assured as only a self-educated genius can be. While protected by his mask, he is a commanding and confident male. However, the transition from that confident male to a scared and scarred creature in Point of No Return is amazing. He is totally shattered. Emmy Rossum is also perfect. So innocent but yet she easily turns from a girl to a bewitched woman wanting to be seduced in this scene.

5:05 wrenches my heart every single time. The lyrics and the melody....It hurts so good.

Gerard added a lot of charm to the character of Eric. This scene is remarkably well done - actor, director. They have painted the face of Michael Crawford for so many years, but who really cared? He (and ALW, of course) created the romantic hero, Gerard Butler made it magnificent. ALW took himself in hands after the movie to make "Love Never Dies".

Past the point of no return No backward glances The games we played till now are at an end Past all thought of "if" or "when" No use resisting Abandon thought and let the dream descend What raging fire shall flood the soul? What rich desire unlocks its door? What sweet seduction lies before us? Past the point of no return The final threshold What warm unspoken secrets will we learn? Beyond the point of no return CHRISTINE You have brought me To that moment when words run dry To that moment when speech disappears Into silence Silence I have come here Hardly knowing the reason why In my mind I've already imagined Our bodies entwining Defenseless and silent Now I am here with you No second thoughts I've decided Decided Past the point of no return No going back now Our passion-play has now, at last, begun Past all thought of right or wrong One final question How long should we two wait, before we're one? When will the blood begin to race? The sleeping bud burst into bloom? When will the flames, at last, consume us? AMBOS Past the point of no return The final threshold The bridge is crossed So stand and watch it burn We've passed the point of no return FANTASMA Say you'll share with me One love, one lifetime Lead me, save me from my solitude Say you want me with you here beside you Anywhere you go, let me go too Christine that's all I ask of...

I can't help but root for the phantom. It's like a beauty and the beast scenario.

2024 here. My breath catches and stills everytime I watch this. Oooof so good!

The whole movie is pure art

Director and photography, in this long scene, seem to have as only purpose to highlight how beautiful Emmy Rossum is. The costume, simple and moderately revealing, the lighting that enhances the texture of her skin, the camera angles, the perfect hairstyle... She looks like a -not yet fallen - angel

Personally I think this is my favourite moment of the musical. It feels really like everything has built up to this moment and its going to explode in the most dramatic point (if anything this feels like the climax and the Final Lair feels like a coda to the whole show) because you have built up to this moment of caring to this relationship between Christine and the Phantom. Never heard a bad version before and that says something since the film isn't the greatest.

The lyrics of this song... Are underrated. Not many songs like this being real, think about it. Art man.

He keeps swirling his cape.

I cry at this part of the movie everytime 5:06

Now that I'm going to see it in theatre, I am rewatching this movie again, and omg, how I love it! It gives me goosebumps even after so many years. Their voices are amazing, their acting is great and the chemistry between them, mindblowing.

masterpiece of a movie

"this is blasphemy, this is madness" "Madness?...THIS! IS! THE POINT OF NO RETURN!"

Okay, is it JUST me, or is tue Phantom still hot... I feel like casting Gerard Butler vocally was amazing, and visually I'm obsessed obviously, but he is a man that is HARD to make ugly... like when I finally saw his face my first thought was "THATS IT?! THAT IS WHAT IS MEANT TO STRIKE FEAR INTO OUR HEARTS?!" I truly believe that Christine loves both Phantom and Raoul. She chose Phantom in the end not to save Raoul, but bc she recognized the Phantom had never BEEN chosen, and he deserved to know what that felt like. And notice how Christine initiates both kisses with the Phantom, while shes touching his face. I truly believe that if during Music of the Night, if he HADN'T flipped out on her and instead just cried and begged her to not look at him yet, and further, just said "I'm afraid you'll never love me once you see my face." That would have given her the opportunity to see his vulnerabilities and show him that to her, that didn't matter and to HER, he was never less than just bc of his face. I would 1000% date a guy who looks like him. As long as he was as passionate too ❤

The Phantom is me when i get a crush on someone

Two lonely people with a strange fate. The only thing they had in life was music, and they met at the Opera House by fate. They realized that they were the only ones who could bring their music to the heaven and give them wings, and they sang this soul-shaking song because they had a similar realization to their resolve. At the beginning and in the cemetery, the Phantom pretended to be an angel of music, but now he exposes his body and his heart to Christine, singing of love as the Phantom, begging for her love. it could be Pietà. Finally, Christine faces the real him, not a ghost or an angel, and faces even her beloved Raoul as a special being who cannot be replaced, and this masterpiece conveys the strong resolve of Christine, who has been weaving the passion that the two have spun up until now, in a sensual way. The overflowing spirit from the two spread to those around them, conveying to me a tremendous sexiness and a rich atmosphere along with the wonderful music. He possessed a naturally sharp sensibility that allowed him to weave such heart-wrenching music, but I wonder how many harsh, cold and painful times he must have had in his life. How much he craved beauty and love! The beauty of this music made that fervor even more apparent to me. To Christine, the Angel of Music was the Phantom, and to the Phantom, that was Christine.

5:05 Raoul be like: "Bruh that's my song 😮".

My favorite song and scene

I love how all elements of the sceene contribute to realize how visceral, intense and with no return is the relacionship that he desires with Cristine, such as the red scenario, that could be interpreted like the blood, the growing tensions along the scenes and also the growing intensity of the sound wich contributes to understand what the absence of a family, love, home and affection can cause to someone: this intensity of connection that he demands. There is also this fire, wich contributes to the intense aspect of the sceene and the fire itself as a symbol of transmutation: the both of them becoming only one. In fact, a very good scene in my opinion...

Shameful that it took me so long, but it was seeing this movie and this scene that finally dispelled in my mind the magic around the Phantom. The manipulation, the spell casting, the lust. Then I finally understood he was not the one she should choose.

They’re all like, ew, he’s blonde and mildly sunburnt

Man it’s crazy that this video has 7.5k views but only three comments

This can't get over this Musical 🥹🫶🫶

数奇にも似た孤独な2人。 人生におけるたったひとつの拠り所が音楽であった彼らが運命の導きでオペラ座で出会い、果てには他でもないお互いこそが自分の音楽を至高に近づけ翼を与えてくれる、そんな唯一無二の存在であるのだと気づき、覚悟にも似た自覚をしたからこそのこの魂を揺さぶる歌唱。 冒頭や墓地で音楽の天使を装っていた怪人から、その身と剥き出しの心をクリスティーヌの前に晒し愛を乞うファントムとして愛を歌い上げる姿はPietàにも感じた。 やっと亡霊や天使ではない本物の彼に向き合い、愛しいラウルさえ取って代われない特別な存在として向き合うクリスティーヌの強い覚悟とこれまでの2人が紡いできた情念が官能的なまでにひしひしと伝わる名曲。 2人から溢れる気迫が周りに伝播し凄まじい色気と濃厚な空間を素晴らしい音楽とともに私に伝えてくれた。 ここまで心に迫る音楽を紡げる天性の研ぎ澄まされた感性の持ち主である彼が生きるにはどれだけ辛く、冷たく、苦しい時間があったのだろう。 どれだけ美と愛を渇望したのか！この音楽の素晴らしさがさらにその切実さを私に伝えた。 音楽の天使はクリスティーヌにとっての怪人であり 怪人にとってもクリスティーヌだったのだろう。

Love this film!

Emotional😢 私は19歳のときにニューヨークでオペラ座の怪人を観て、英語はわからなかったけれど泣きました。 この映像を観て、そのときのことが蘇りました。

The Dark Lord has a beautiful voice

5:05 personal time stamp

I love this song so much. In the West End and in this film. And my name is Christine too which is nice!!

Ok Gerard Butler isnt the best singer in the world but hes still better than David Hassiloff in the Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde musical. One of the things I love with Gerard Butler as The Phantom is that there's so much emotion when he sings

this is my favourite song on the soundtrack

I love how everyone is just looking at them

Love this, they take my breath away ❤

god, i love this movie!

Love you phantom ❤❤❤

Can we talk about how Christinne didn't really fought back when Eric hold her tighter before disappearing?

When I first watched this movie, i've always remembered the bit where Christine sings "No second thoughts, I've decided, decided.", her nodding her head ever so slightly at the phantom at the first "decided", almost as if saying she was picking him over Raoul. Which i thought tied into the breathless look he had when the camera switched to him (also kinda plays into the passion Christine displays afterwards and Raoul's reaction). But my brother made me doubt it, especially with this clip. I can't tell if she really nodded or it was simply the flickering light/reflection on her face that made it look like she did. Can someone confirm?

I prefer the Play ending over the movie ending but this PONR is GREAT and so is the destruction scene

No matter how you look, I love you ❤❤❤ because our love transcends space and time ❤❤❤

The unmasking here has no where near the same power as Ramin's portrayal, the way he screams "NO!" both angry and afraid and looks away as it was completly unexpected for him to be unmasked mid song. In this Geralt just looks disappointed lol, like "aw dammit 😕"

The biggest over reaction of all time is when she takes his mask off and the audience gasps like that in horror 🤦‍♀️ his face isn’t even bad at all he is still super hot

In all honestly I would have picked the phantom over the other dude, I would have made the phantom sing to me constantly

Anyone else noticed that his hair magically turns grey

I’d be so nervous around him!!! 😂😂

Yo se Gerard Butler no puede cantar bueno, pero yo amo él😭❤️

The Phantom is so 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This is forever my favorite version, and 4:47 Rauols face and tears. I saw another comment describe it perfectly. He was pained, knowing he is Christines safe choice. It's clear her body and mind, at least a part is deep rooted to Erik. As Erik is to her, and he will never be able to compete with that. Even if she was just playing along, you can tell and feel the attraction they have and he probably questioned if she was still playing or fell for Erik completely. For if she did, he could never take her away.

The conductor @ 6:38 reminds me of Mr Pastry Never thought I would be making that comment when I started watching 😂

Mi cancion favorita de toda la pelicula ❤

I love the way Christine looks in this scene. At the beginning she’s like “Jesus Christ not this guy, again” lol But I think this is the best version of The Point of No Return :)

anyone doubting how great gerard sings? watch HTTYD 2 it'll convince you otherwise

Please tell me in i wasnt the only one who was Team Phantom. Or do i need therapy. Thanks 😁

Gerard Butler is so scary and sexy in this scene. The acting is brilliant...

I love how the movies chandelier falls exactly like the broadaway shows swinging back onto stage !

my favorite version

6:09 A great revenge to your bullies if you ever been bullied

Apparently, based on the comments, you can only love or hate this scene. Nothing in between 😂

How do you go from phantom of the opera to being shamless lol!

No cause I’m actually going crazy due to the fact that I’m the same age as Emmy when she filmed this movie 😍🤯💀

❤

I’m like the Phantom, if I can’t have it I burn the whole thing down.

You have come here In pursuit of your deepest urge In pursuit of that wish which till now has been silent Silent I have brought you That our passions may fuse and merge In your mind you've already succumbed to me Dropped all defenses, completely succumbed to me Now you are here with me, no second thoughts You've decided, decided Past the point of no return No backward glances Our games of make-believe are at an end Past all thought of if or when No use resisting Abandon thought and let the dream descend What raging fire shall flood the soul? What rich desire unlocks its door? What sweet seduction lies before us Past the point of no return The final threshold What warm, unspoken secrets will we learn Beyond the point of no return? You have brought me To that moment where words run dry To that moment where speech disappears into silence Silence I have come here Hardly knowing the reason why In my mind I've already imagined our bodies entwining, defenseless and silent Now I am here with you, no second thoughts I've decided, decided Past the point of no return No going back now Our passion play has now at last begun Past all thought of right or wrong One final question How long should we two wait before we're one? When will the blood begin to race? The sleeping bud bursts into bloom? When will the flames at last consume us? Past the point of no return The final threshold The bridge is crossed, so stand and watch it burn We've passed the point of no retu

How long should we two wait before we’re one ? 😩😢🎨♥️🤡🎤🎹🎹💍🎨

, qé voces q tienen!! El cuerpo humano fue creado completo!hasta trae la tecnología perfecta para reproducir la Palabra de Dios y alabarLE con salmos!imagino estas voces cantándole salmos!

Oui mon Amour♥️

Bro has rizz

I’m sorry I’m so glad that Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway has scheduling conflicts to not do these roles. Yes Emmy could move around more, yes Gerard is deaf in one of his ears (he had surgery as a kid) and does a half decent job of singing but his acting is 100%. I just CANT imagine an alternate universe where Hugh Jackman was playing the phantom. Gerard butler knows that he didn’t sing that well he mentioned it in an interview but if I were in the room I’d tell him your acting was amazing though and it’s better that these two were less known than Hugh and Anne because it made their character seem more believable than just another Hugh Jackman movie…we alll know how terrible le mis was…this movie isn’t perfect but despite its flaws it’s still decent.

Erik casually stealing Raoul's wife. 😂

Even wearing makeup effect, he's still looks hot and damme handsome 😂

I’m thinking of someone 🤡🎤. I’m missing an ex . 🎹💍🎨

Johannes ,you’re good for me .

That Gerard Butler is a good looking man. I'm pickie when it comes to men. Nothing against the other men. Who has played the phantom. This is a good movie. No matter what anyone says. ❤

이게 2004년 영화고 지금이 2024년이라니...

Beautiful Dark Lord

Y'all is there a book of this parallel where Christine and the phantom fall for each other inside? I'm dying for it

The neck grab🌹🦹🏻‍♂️🔥💋💋💋

4:24 Me just thinking of myself in place of Christine despite being only 13 typing this

To accept someone as they truly are is rare among the ugliest of us, skeletons in the closet and all, the most unbearable and undesirable parts of ourselves that we're never going to be ready to tell anyone... Since I was little myself, I've had wet dreams, and acted according to my passion as an inventor as well. I was never innocent in my life past my egg, with my twin sister, and I've never told anyone more than all this. What's more... Is I've dreamed of the destruction of Babylon, that greedy and deadly demon, and planned to snub out the use of money for the space of practically eternity. The gold standard is not even enough for me, it all must end, all the greed and sadness of this world. So... I've already sent for it. The path has been made. And now we shall just be able to sit back, and wait for the world of Babylon to crumble before our very eyes. While those with skills have precedence in the world to come, which share them with the world, and blossom in our times of need. A new generation of thinking, and then doing, that should be the result.
