Les Miserables

I hadn't seen a grown-ups movie at the cinema for almost nine years...
Until last Friday.

My husband and I had a rare treat out after his mum (the best mil ever) offered to take the kids for TWO nights!!

So we took the very rare opportunity to go to the movies all by ourselves....

And this is what we saw -



Do not read on until you've watched the clip...
You've seen it? You're sure??

OK...read on...

I'm not sure if you know already, but music...musicals...music theatre...operettas (which I prefer to call this movie) move me like nothing else can.

It's now four days later and I still can't get the music out of my head.
I'm hooked, I'm infatuated, I'm in love!

The line from this preview that does it for me is -

"You get the fragility of a voice which matches with the emotions of what the character's saying."

Oh boy, do you!!

If music means anything to you, you MUST see this movie.



PS Anne Hathaway's "I Dreamed a Dream" is pure brilliance.

PPS Whilst I was sitting watching the movie the thought struck me that we should all stop speaking to each other and sing everything instead...a much more civilized way of communicating!
