This '74 rock opera (written and directed
by Brian De Palma) is being broadcast
on TVO this Saturday 27th at 8:00 pm.
It's a rock version of Phantom of the Opera.
From what I remember, it's a comedy/horror-ish
movie with a cool soundtrack.

I love that movie. The song "Old Souls" is one of my favourite songs period.

A couple of years back I bought both the DVD and the CD soundtrack album. I think the CD was $25.00 and the DVD was under $15.00.

Prices are lower now:

"I love that movie. The song "Old Souls" is one of my favourite songs period."

My thoughts exactly. Sung to perfection by Jessica Harper, never to be heard of again as far as I know. Should Google her and find out.
Paul Williams is a master songsmith.

Google her, seriously. She has a hugely successful career in children's music and literature.
