I Love Lamp. And Ender's Game. Don't tell Lamp.

I own it.

It looks like a boring movie for old people. Anyone who's watched it, is this true?

Hardly.

Spoiler-free Summary: Jean Valjean starts a new life after 19 years in prison for stealing bread for his nephew and attempting to escape multiple times. There are many plot lines after this, such as the tragic life of Fantine (one of Valjean's former workers forced into prostitution to pay for medicine for her daughter), a love story between Valjean's adopted daughter and a revolutionary Marius, and the revolution itself in Paris.


Doesn't the film start in 1815? In which case, the revolution should be long gone.

This is true, and this is told in the opening. I meant to say a French revolution, not the French Revolution. The revolution focused on in Les Miserables is the June Rebellion of 1832, which-
[SPOILER ALERT]
-was a failure, lasting only a few days.

I agree with this guy.

Luckily, it's not every five minutes, it's constantly, so we're all good. Mega-excite for this movie, going to see it Saturday with theater people. I've heard Javert's Suicide is quite the scene.

I like how people bash it for being a musical. If you didn't know that going into it that's your own damn fault lol.

Why did it have to be Heath Ledger? Why couldn't it have been Anne Hathaway instead?

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

I really want to see it and knowing I dont really like musicals is saying something.

Sweeny Todd was good.
