I've never been a fan of A Heart Full of Love, but.... this version is so stinkin' adorable! I love the letter, it adds an element to the number that changes it from corny to cute. Not to mention they're all great singers.
P.S. If anyone from the show has a different video of this, I ditto the wish to see more of the blocking. I loved how Marius and Cosette did the sort of West Side Story thing, with putting their palms together as they vowed their love. Also, how Marius scaled the trellis to the balcony. Very Romeo&Juliet, Tony&Maria, true-love-y.
P.P.S. I loved that he had the letter - I actually squealed with glee when he took it out. So glad they didn't film that night, or you might hear me yelp!
I agree! I love Les Miserables -- it's both one of my favorite books, and one of my favorite musicals -- and this is my favorite performance of it, of the ones I've seen. It just added so many nice little touches, so much life. It seemed more fully realized than the traditional staging, and most of the actors were a LOT better than their counterparts in the Broadway cast who I saw close to the same time!
@PhanPhanPhanPhanPhan I AGREE!!! I'm so weird, the Cosettes i like most are the light lyric sopranos, or the fuller voiced Cosettes. I do also love Gina Beck, and Katie Hall, and that was rather random!
@PhanPhanPhanPhanPhan DID YOU HEAR OF THEM IN PHANTOM TOO?!?! Julie Craig, Katie Hall, Gina Beck, Deborah Dutcher and Rebecca Caine have to be my favourites. All masterfully voiced, but never too shrieky or smaltzy. AND JOSH YOUNG IS SO ADORABLE! Awkward poetry paper time xD BRILLIANT!
i love the note! that was a gr8 touch!

@RaWrZzZz Me too! I prefer Gina Beck and Katie Hall above all others, too, haha! But this girl is just lovely- Marius is a baritone as well!
