The Phantom of the Opera

Other mistake: When the phantom sings behind Christine's mirror in her dressing room, she starts to walk towards it, entranced. It's obvious he is behind the mirror, and it's a one-way mirror. But, when she touches his hand, wouldn't the mirror have to be opened up? They act like she can just walk into the mirror. (00:30:55)

Suggested correction: When the Phantom begins singing behind the mirror and Christine approaches, it appears as if she walks through the mirror to the other side, then grabs the Phantom's hand. The hallway she is taken into is elaborate, with gold human arms holding candles. Later, when Meg looks for Christine in her room, she finds the mirror odd and slides it open to enter the secret hallway, finding it dark and rat-infested. This proves that what Christine saw was in her mind and that she imagined she walked through the mirror.

Questions

Question: Who is the old man in the wheelchair who puts the music box with the monkey on Christine's grave at the end?I thought it might be Raoul but the box belonged to the phantom and he hated the phantom.

Answer: It is Raoul. He gets the music box because Christine obviously loved it, shown by the fact that she had obviously described and remembered it in such great detail many years after last seeing it. He buys it for her as a gift of love, even though she has died.

Answer: It's also a symbol that Raoul recognized Christine still loved the phantom. Possibly more than him. The love triangle is complete as neither man truly had her. Raoul spent his life with her but she loved the phantom. The phantom missed out on spending life with her but got her love.

Answer: It's Raoul. When the auctioneer sells him the music box, he addresses him by his title, The Vicomte de Chagny.
