HERE'S A PHOTO OF HER AND BRIAN ON THE SET OF PHANTOM - AND LINK TO A PODCAST DISCUSSING THE FILM
"I just went to the movie theater like everybody else in New York," Jessica Harper is quoted in Laurent Bouzereau's new book, The De Palma Decade. "I went to the Upper East Side, and I remember standing and looking at the marquee, and I just couldn't believe that such a thing had happened, that I was involved with a film that was now playing in a movie theater. Seeing the movie was very affecting. It had a sad ending, and I reacted to it like your average moviegoer; I was really captured by the emotional arc of the story. I really went with it."
Meanwhile, the new episode of the horror podcast How I Met Your Monster discusses A Tragic Antihero in Brian De Palma's PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE.
