1. Position oven rack in the lower third of the oven and set a baking sheet on it; preheat to 400 degrees F. Coat a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray.
2. Toss plums with lemon juice in a large bowl. Combine granulate sugar, flour, cinnamon and ginger in a small bowl; add to the plums and toss to coat evenly.
3. Combine butter and oil in a small bowl. Unroll phyllo onto a baking sheet or a clean, dry surface; keep covered with wax paper and a slightly damp kitchen towel to prevent dough from drying out. Center one sheet in the pie pan, letting edges of phyllo hang over the sides. Sprinkle the phyllo in the pan with 1/2 teaspoon of the butter/oil mixture. Brushing from the center toward the edge, use a pastry brush to distribute the mixture evenly. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon breadcrumbs. Repeat with 7 more sheets of phyllo, setting each sheet down at a 45 degrees angle to the previous one. Over the eighth layer, sprinkle all the remaining breadcrumbs. (Reserve the remaining 2 teaspoons of the butter/oil mixture and the ninth phyllo sheet.)
4. Spoon the plum filling into the crust. Lift an overhanging corner of phyllo, twist it once near its base, and set it gently onto the filling with the fluted point ruffling up. Continue twisting the remaining corners in the same fashion; the first few twists should be set toward the center of the pie to allow room near the edge of the pan for the final twists. (If two layers stick together, simply twist both together.) When you are done, there will be a small circle of uncovered filling at the center of the pie. Tuck any leftover drapes into the sides of the pan.
