LES NE PAS MISÉRABLES

First came the novel, a Victorian mastodont by Victor Hugo.
Then, in the twentieth century, came the musical.
 Last Christmas, the film premiered.
 The film of the musical of the novel, starring:
Hugh Jackman as Jean Valjean
Russell Crowe as Javert
Amanda Seyfried as Cosette
Eddie Redmayne as Marius
Samantha Barks as Éponine
Aaron Kyle Tveit as Enjolras
Sacha Baron Cohen as M. Thénardier
Helena Bonham-Carter as Mme. Thénardier
and
Anne Hathaway as Fantine.
 Nominated for eight Oscars, Les Misérables follows the plot of the novel closely: a choral epic depicting all the social classes and scenarios of 1830s France. Upon seeing it two months ago, I left the cinema speechless: in spite of its length, it is a real piece of art!
The DVD is expected to be released this summer, and I await it impatiently!
(I even fell for Enjolras, leader of the revolutionary students, to the extent of mourning his violent death!)
