He got 5 years for the breadstealing, he got the other years for trying to escape multiple times

I actually did draw Gavroche as the symbol of Les Miserables because I felt the same way you did; that he truly is the heart and soul of the musical. Many forget, but Gavroche was actually a child of the Thenardiers, he was abandoned and hated by his parents, raised by Eponine for the most part, and Cosette until she left. He is a character with compassion, bravery, loyalty who constantly is shit on by society, but keeps his innocence. He shows that even flowers can bloom by the side of paved roads

Child Cosette is the symbol of the movie because she represents hope for the future, being one of the few characters who actually survives. She is also the love of Valjean's life and embodies his redemption as he turns from a criminal to a loving father: "a man who only learnt to love when you were in his keeping." Gavroche is more pro-active but he dies in the end. He is more a symbol of lost innocence than of hope, which is what the movie/show is ultimately about

The Wall has been one of my favorite movies for 25 years and I was confused watching that video. It was hard to understand a lot of what they were saying or singing. I thought the production of it was absolutely incredible and uh, fucking COREY TAYLOR?! Hell fucking yeah! But, as he points out at the end, he didn't even have a line!! I got the point of him sort of being Pink and all that, but HELLOOO ITS COREY FUCKING TAYLOR!!!! It couldn't have been an easy task to get him to sign on for it, and I personally would have much rather seen them do an actual review together and get Corey's real thoughts (Doug's too, I suppose) on the movie. Idk. I just happened to find this channel after someone pointed me towards the Snick and Nickelodeon reviews from years prior, and I started looking through the rest of the channel. I haven't formed a complete opinion on it yet; I think some of the videos are funny and some are kinda dumb. This one, though...Les Miz is another favorite (also going back 25 years, first time I ever heard On My Own in the 7th grade and I was immediately hooked) and I love the movie. I'm also apparently the only person on earth who actually enjoyed Russell Crowe as Javert, but that's neither here nor there. 😁 I'm into it so far, though there's a bit that I don't necessarily agree with. I like the way they're doing it much, much better.

Well to be fair to the film makers, most of the stuff that happen in the film happened in the book. Plus I think Cosette was given to that abusive family when she was 2 or 3 years old so she really didn’t know her mom other than the fact she paid for her to life with her foster family.

I felt the need to address that Valjean was able to succeed because the giant sack full of items that the priest gave him (which he first tried to steal) were all special holy pieces from a CHURCH. Those item tend to be made of solid (or at least VERY thickly coated with) gold, silver, or bronze and are therefore worth INSANE amounts of money. Trust me. I've read a number of catalogues for that sort of thing (hey, I go to catholic school and they make for reading material with decent shock value when you're really bored). Anyways, Valjean's biggest problem is that no one will hire him because of his criminal record. Clearly he can't melt down the valuable church stuff, but if he sells it to some seedy guy who can (or even just sells it to a different church) and gets a fair price for it, he would have more than enough money to start his own small business and from there, work to make a name for himself. In 8 years, he could grow in wealth, gain much respect for his goodness, and eventually become mayor. This is what I always assumed happened.

I know the book is really long, but it gives great explanations for everything that is skipped over in the musicals and movie. For instance, Valjean became Mayor because he was able to invent a new way for the townspeople to create the commodity needed to become successful. He turned the town into a gold mine of capitalism and success, and everyone loved him so much they kept ushering him to be Mayor.

"If you were a young girl, you would be happy to find out Wolverine was your father." I'm pretty sure that was the idea behind the movie Logan.

The reason why the broadway actors argument for Ann Hathaway's song is because even if she's theatrically trained, she's an actor in movies so normally has multiple takes to do things, meaning that she's not used to doing things in 1 take so her song is impressive anyway but considering how good the performance of the song was it just makes it so much more impressive.

@RavynMad121

Not to mention that on stage, there are small physical mistakes you can get away with, and you aren't required to build up tears and emotion in the face quite as much, but here she is being filmed constantly in a close-up shot on high definition. She can't make any mistakes at all or else it will be picked up by the camera. She not only performed the song perfectly in one take, but she acted the part perfectly too. At no point during the song did she stray even slightly from her character or the emotions she was meant to portray. It was also considered to be really impressive since most of the stuff she acts in is movies like Princess Diaries and The Devil Wears Prada. This level of pain and despair hadn't been done by her before, none of us knew how good she could really be.

"The French revolution you've never heard of...." That's not entirely fair. It got about 3 sentences in my AP World History textbook (I know it was the right one because it mentioned student rebels and barricades in the streets).

@troodon1096

Ай бұрын

It was mentioned in the European history book I had for my college class, but... we never covered it in class, it wasn't even mentioned in class. I get the impression that even most French people haven't heard of it. If Hugo hadn't wrote a book about it, and someone else made a musical based on the book, most people wouldn't even know about it. It wasn't a successful revolution and barely lasted longer than the musical based on it did.

In Cosette's defense, she IS the glue that holds the story together. Fantine died and left Cosette in Valjean's care. Not only did this contribute greatly to Valjean learning love and compassion, but it was eventually Cosette's love for Marius that prompted Valjean to get involved at the barricades in the first place. Without Cosette there, the second two thirds of the film wouldn't be relevant to Valjean's story and thus wouldn't be included at all. It makes sense for her to be the poster child of the musical since she's probably one of the biggest plot points in the entire story.

The barricades and streets are small in the movie because that's what it was actually like in Paris at that time. The June Rebellion is actually the reason that a lot of houses were torn down and the city was redesigned to have wide streets and boulevards. They wanted to make it impossible for anyone rebelling to barricade themselves in the streets again

Uh. No, that wasnt the reason. Due to the industrial revolution the cities were becoming more and more unhealthy with chimneys expelling smoke in the air, people and horses taking dumps out in the street and people throwing their trash outside and with the boom of factories there were more carriages transporting materials in the street. Paris still had the same urban plan from the medieval times, with narrow alleys that dont allow much air to flow through so the city was redesigned by Georges Eugene Haussman to provide open streets so the transit could circulate confortably, people could have fresh air to breathe and sanitary and water services could be installed. I studied story of architecture for years and one of the most dense subjects is the reform of Paris, it had nothing to do with the June Rebellion, dont take the credit away from Haussman's work.

You know I just realized. Les Miserable would work so much better cinematically if they broke it into 3 chapters, Valjean's Redemption, Valjean and Cosette developing a father/daughter bond, and the French Revolution. Each could have been a movie on it's own, telling parts of a whole story.

When the music for Rachel's and Malcom's song started, I thought it was gonna be to the tune of Poor Unfortunate Souls. That's literally what it sounds like.

I must be one of five people who are okay with Russel Crowe's singing. Frankly, I unironically enjoy a lot of garbage and bad things, and so I won't pretend that it sounds great. But, in all honesty, I like it.

I don't think it's garbage though. I seriously enjoy it, and I feel he made Javert for me. His voice *is* gravelly, but I feel that's perfect for a French guard, and it's not even a 'bad' gravelly. I think it fits amazingly and I can't find flaws in his opening song about 24601 and the confrontation. But, as you said, we must be in the minority who likes it. Sadly.

The movie was definitely more focused on the characters than their voices, and Russell Crowe is an excellent actor. For me at least, his voice works with the stone cold Javert he is potraying. The only issue I have with him as Javert is that you kind of need to read the book beforehand to get emotionally invested, but that goes with all of the characters in the movie.

He really does sound just like Russell Crowe

love at first sight makes love feel meaningless. if i can just find love by wandering out into the forest on a sunny day, then whats the point of love being important? relationships are hollow if neither party knows each other. Look at cinderella. Cindy was nearly passed over because the prince didnt take the time to get to know her, and she wasnt given enough time to get to know him. they never said a single word to each other. And yet the relationship was perfect in the end. no effort. no emotion. Snow white was a tad bit worse. a man comes across a corpse in the forest, kisses it, and it comes to life to marry him. And movie industries take it for granted, instead explaining how it can happen, and is a plausable scenario that has a positive and healthy outcome.
