"Phantom" is next in Viewing Vizcaya series

Viewing Vizcaya presents a a movie series periodically, where movies are shown in the courtyard at Vizcaya Museum and Gardens.

The next film in the series, on Wednesday, October 21, is the 1925 version of "Phantom of the Opera," a silent film that James Deering, Vizcaya's owner, may have enjoyed at the time with his friends. Film starts at 7 pm.

Live music will accompany the film. Themed cocktails and the usual movie fare goodies are available for purchase.

Tickets are $15.00 and are available the day of the film only. Seating is limited.

The next movies are "The Money Pit," from 1986, on January 20, 2010 (is this a reference to Vizcaya's constant upkeep costs? Maybe. Discover how Vizcaya plays into, not only the theme of this movie, but the film itself.) and on February, 17, "Intolerance," a silent film from 1916 will be shown, a D.W. Griffith epic staring Lillian Gish, a contemporary of Deering’s and an extended house guest at Vizcaya.
