Caught this show yesterday in theaters and I must say, it's fabulous. Comparing with the musical version, I would say both are equally nice. I don't know why the movie version made me tear more, probably because it's more visually realistic. I ain't gonna blog about the story here, but just gonna single out a few characters I find super influential to me.
Firstly Marius Pontmercy whom was played by Eddie Redmayne. I personally find that he portrayed this role better compared to the musical one some how. Personal preference yo! Anyway, the character Marius was so different from the book. Of course I preferred the musical and theater version more, because in the book he is cruel and shrewd. He was rather romantic and gentle. One of the best male lead role in a romance story you can ever get I suppose.
Another character that I find super influential is Fantine whom was played by Anna Hathaway. If you've watched disney channel's princess diaries OR the dark knight rises, you'll know who is she. Fantine is the mother of Cosette. I admire her sacrifice and courage to become a prostitute just to earn money for medicine to save her ill daughter.
The last character is non other than Jean Valjean whom was played by Hugh Jackman. Wolverine from x-men sums up who he is. It's quite difficult to put how much I admire this character in words. You've got to catch the movie to be able to understand!
