I saw this film for the first time recently and it amazed me especially this scene. With Paul Williams as Swan in this scene, Swan fixing Winslow's voice to sound like him (one could guess Swan would sound like Paul Williams singing) just feels like a beautifully tragic moment - not only did Winslow literally and figuratively lose his voice but even when he gets it back and can sing, it's Swan's singing voice, further replacing more and more of Winslow's identity. I don't know if that was an intended takeaway but it felt really cutting and got to me thinking about it.

I love how even after every suffering Winslow has been put through before this, he still loses himself to playing his music

I love this film. It’s a complete indictment of the entertainment industry and how the purity of creative expression is chewed up and spat out by the corporate machine

It's both amazing the subtlety and disheartening the reality of this scene. Swan modulates Winslow's voice to sound like his own, calling it perfect. The symbolism is self evident

This scene is sooooo strong ! It's the only good deed that Swan did and it's the most beautiful things ever : restored a singer voice, it's a kind of rebirth.

If you listen to the voice though. Swan doesn't actually restore Winslow's singing voice to how it was in the beggining of the movie, he gives him a brand new singing voice based on his own.

It not even just based on Swans, its just is Swans voice, then Swans says perfect here 1:29.

@@eldonte843 To be fair, this technology probably had a lot of input coming from Swan's music. Swan himself probably didn't even have a recording of Winslow's original voice.

Insanely symbolic, Swan recreates Winslow in his own image like god would but just cements his role as the devil in the story obviously connecting to Faust.
@peachsoda35107 ай бұрын
except its not as a good deed, notice how he interrupts Right as the song reaches climax Before the chord progression can resolve, and Unplugs him, to contrast the singing voice to the speaking voice. Hes manipulating winslow just as he had all his other stars, making sure he Knows he'll be Nothing without Swan.

Fun Fact: The singing voice of The Phantom is actually Paul Williams, who is the guy adjusting the sound on this clip. He not only wrote the soundtrack for this movie but a number of hits, including "Rainbow Connection." Paul Williams is a legend too few people know about. ✌🏽

i was gonna say the song and how it is distorted in this scene remind me of Daft Punk's Random Access Memories, but I realized I had it backwards, Daft Punk just based the album off of this era of music and culture, and were probably influenced by this film in more ways than one.
