XD...I KNEW IT!! Best part! I thought they made Jean Valjean more violent in the film, and made Javert just plain Mean. I still LUV him tho! I Think on appearence, Geoffrey Rush was the best one. next to Philip Quast. :D
Im reading this book rightnow, and i just can say that it's an awasome history, Juan Valjean is a wonderful person,and Cosette stole my heart...now I read the chapter where Marius appears, think it should be an important person
Even though I don't think Uma Thurman was very good as Fantine, the way they filmed her death and the confrontation - its almost exactly like in the book. Only she was not hoping to die, she still held out hope - until Javert appeared.
aww Liam Neeson is so cute!This scenes with Fantine are so sweet...Geoffrey Rush is great,but really different from other interpretations,like John Malkovich or Philip Quast:he's more violent,"mean" and psycopatic XD than the usual
bah, I agree brindlegreyhound it's so stupid that they made Javert so cruel, on the other hand the look on Valjean's face with the look when he realized what had happened is well done for the moment. But there's one small problem, Valjean is a pacifist. He goes to jail willingly in the novel and doesn't fight. Also in the novel, he shoots off an officer's hat rather than kill him. He wouldn't hit Javert like that.
Geoffry Rush!!! I love him. Les Miz is so freakin' awsome with him in it. *eyes widen* He's amazing as Javert. I love him. But he's also more awsome as Barbossa!!! Okay Geoffrey, I know you knew it! *laughs*
when he finally got out he was on probation and robbed two more people so Javert has been chasing him through France so that he can put Valjean back in jail
I wish someone would post the scene from the beginning where the priest says "I've bought your soul. You're no longer a slave". I am a very unfeeling person, but that always sends shivers down my spine and tears to my eyes.
you can find major theatrical plays about in major cities in your case in Europe, probably in cities like London, or Paris especially since it is obviously a french story.
Brilliant clip from the film. Val jeans, compassion and the inspectors efforts for justice contrast to show that sometimes the law has no common sense. Inspector Javert called reform, " a discredited fantasy," but this film shows that people can be reformed and become an asset to society.
I love this film version of Victor Hugo's classic. Sure, there was some stuff cut out, but it was overall faithfull to the origional. Liam Neeson's acting in this scene is wonderful. "You killed her..." This scene was so poigant in the novel, but the look on Valjean's face when he looses Fantine in the film is priceless.
How interesting that in both this movie and in the musical, Valjean knocks Javert out and makes his quick getaway. But in the book, Valjean actually goes to the town prison and escapes. The movie and musical's versions of the scene make some more sense. Valjean tried to escape from Toulon four times and every time failed miserably. We're to believe that he was able to break out of this time in just a few hours? Come on.
I could barely hear anything, with all the sound on my computer turned up. Almost done reading the book now. Fantastic story, buried in a boatload of Hugo's tireless lectures, monlogues and soliloquies.
Not sure about Neeson's height, as it is speculated quite a bit, as with Rush's, but I believe Geoff looks a good 6'. But I noticed this too, he makes Geoff look quite a bit shorter, and with Geoffrey's hat too! It's weird.
How tall is Liam Neeson? Because Geoffrey Rush is 6' yet he looks quite small in that scene. Apperently there's only 4 inches between them. Was Liam Neeson standing on a box to make Mr Rush look punier? I wonder...
why would this even be made with out the songs?

How tall is Liam Neeson? Because Geoffrey Rush is 6' yet he looks quite small in that scene. Apperently there's only 4 inches between them. Was Liam Neeson standing on a box to make Mr Rush look punier? I wonder...
