In Phantom of the Opera, When does the auction take place?

This according to the 2004 movie script. An elderly Raoul is at the auction of the Paris Opera House. It takes place in 1919. He meets by chance an elderly Madame Giry. (I used to think it was Meg, but according to the script it is in fact Madame Giry. If Madame Giry was 35 in 1870, then she would be around 84 in 1919. Perfectly reasonable.) He buys the music box. The chandelier is then brought out. They go BACK in time to 1870(although the real Paris Opera wash't built until around 1875.)

Hope I helped

It takes place in the future. The old man is Raoul and the lady is Meg (but she is played by the same woman who plays Madame Giry. Raoul buys the monkey to remember Christine and the Phantom ( I wont ruin the rest for you) It takes place in the Opera House.

to characteristic to what anybody else has suggested: Christine kissed the phantom because of the fact he made her make a call between him or Rauol. She replace into engaged to Rauol and so because it extremely is the place her heart replace into. however the phantom enjoyed her and needed her for himself. So he strung Rauol up and informed her that he could kill Rauol if she left him, yet that Rauol might desire to stay is she stayed with the phantom. So she kissed him to tutor her determination - she could particularly stay with the phantom than see her lover and fiance killed. The phantom permit her and Rauol go away whilst he heard the point hands and actors coming right down to capture him for the murders he had achieved. He additionally found out that Christine enjoyed Rauol a lot that she could sacrifice herself for his existence and that she replace into purely staying because of the fact he made her. So he realizes that theirs (Christine and Rauol) is a real love and his love could be unrequited. So he shall we them go away jointly. the persons who locate the masks are the actors and point hands - the girl who holds the masks on the tip is Meg. Rauol is the guy interior the wheelchair on the commencing up. He acknowledges the monkey music and the story then goen right into a flashback of the time he recollects from managing the phantom. The phantom replace into no longer dea - as suggested above he replace into somebody residing interior the theatre who grew to become fixated on CHristine and used her craving for the "angel of music" to make her have faith him and with any luck fall in love with him. whether or no longer he died as quickly as they got here across his masks - who is conscious?

They go BACK in time to 1870(although the real Paris Opera wash't built until around 1875.)

The story starts with the viscount buying that monkey. It reminds him of the olden days when he was still young. "Lot 666. the chandelier." It gets raised and the flashback starts.
