which movie? I wonder if I’ve seen it/heard of it now :’)

It’s called Rigoletto, but it has nothing to do with the opera by Verdi. It’s sort of a weird mix of the Phantom of the Opera and Beauty and the Beast only it takes place during the Depression. 

The film company that made it is one of those that specialize in wholesome “family friendly” movies, and out of curiosity I look them up and their entire wikipedia page is about them being repeatedly sued for making millions of telemarketing calls to numbers on Do Not Call lists (which is illegal) soliciting donations and acting like a charity then pocketing the proceeds for themselves (SUPER illegal). 

Mostly it’s okay if a little bland and cheesy, but the ending is very distressing. It’s one of those movies that puts so much effort into it’s Everything Is Fine atmosphere, that it loops back around into disturbing.
