In the ABC Cafe, the band of students, led by Enjolras (Boromir) make plans to overthrow the oppressive government and build a great barricade. His comrades are enthusiastically getting supplies and weapons for the upcoming battles. Moral is high!

But Marius (Faramir) cannot seem to focus on the task at hand; he keeps thinking of the beautiful Cosette (Eowyn) and is torn between fighting with his friends or pursuing her.

Rallying his followers spirits, Enjolras sings "Red and Black", and Marius realizes his place is among his friends. Later, they discover from the street urchin Gavrouche (Pippin) that their one sympathizer, General Lamarque, has died. Believing this to be a sign to signal the flames of the revolution, Enjolras and the students launch their campaign...

Notes:
- Bah, this video was SO hard to make!! Not only is it just super long, but there's lots and lots of talking and different characters. I began it in December 2008, if you can believe it. It's the video that's been holding up the rest. I have the next 5 video ready to upload.
- Grantaire's voice (humourously poking fun at Marius in 1:25) went through like 6 versions. The succession went something like this: Haldir-Gimli-Haldir-Gimli-Legolas-Gimli. =P Finally, I made it work with Gimli.
- Hopefully this meets expectations; I know several people were curious as to how "Red and Black" could be pulled off.

  • December 2008...? That was like...a long time time ago. xD

    Worth it though. I loved it. Red and Black is up there with one of my favorite Les Mizz songs.

  • @KimukoCat

    I know, I kept putting it off for the longest time. XD But it's such a great theme that I had to make it. :D

  • @lilmissjez ^^

  • @NaomiLawlietJr yea so tru Eponie was deff my favorite

  • Oh, GOD!!!! I you gave me the shivers. But every time I see Les Mis, I feel so sorry for Éponie. She should have gotten Marius, because I felt that she had a stronger personality than Cosette.

  • Actually, this is AMAZING!!! .. some of the words just fit the right clips.. love it well done thanks for sharing two great things in one awesom vid!! xxx

  • this is very clever! i love both LOTR, hasd a replica ring, oh how i miss it lol ... BUT THIS IS MY FAVE MUSICAL >> thanks fro sharing! xxx

  • This is fucking wicked.

  • These two were destined to be as one

  • Ummmm....... anyone else love it when they zoomed in on Frodo's face and he was looking like: do we HAVE to? and BTW LOVE IT!!!!! you have combined my fave musical with one of my fave movies. and it fits. thanks!!!!

  • this is so great!!! i wish others who make similar videos had your talent, theirs take only maybe an hour.. yours took a couple years, but still the quality is much appreciated!

  • IT'S PERFECT!!! i couldn't stop laughing because everything was timed so perfectly and the facial expressions of the people were just priceless. now the next time i watch lotr i will be picturing Faramir as Marius and Boramir as Enjolras, and i'll be waiting for them to break out in song
