The phantom of the opera (1925) Is the first version (that we know of - There could of been another one in 1916 according to IMDB . But all such prints dont not exsist . If there was one in 1916 did Gaston leroux "The writer of the book" know of this film ? ) It works at at slow place trying to follow the plot but also trying to impress audences of the 20's while trying also to not anger the writer of the book . They didnt want an angry Gaston on there heels.
