Video: Q&A of PHANTOM OF PARADISE Doc, PHANTOM OF WINNIPEG, From SLEEPY HOLLOW INTERNATIONAL FILM FEST
Since it’s release in 1974, Brian De Palma’s Phantom of the Paradise has become a cult classic with legions of followers. The influence the film had on the city of Winnipeg in Manitoba, Canada, however, took on a life of its own. This last weekend, the documentary Phantom of Winnipeg premiered at the Sleepy Hollow International Film Fest. It explores why the film struck such a resonating chord within this particular community.
Check out our video of the Q&A embedded at the top of the article. On stage are Edward R. Pressman, Paul Williams, Gerrit Graham (all from Phantom of the Paradise) and the documentary’s creators Malcolm Ingram and Sean Stanley.
