Les Mis is, per the motto, the longest-running musical in Broadway history. For such a phenomenon to occur, there have to be at least 2 demographics: the 연인들 and the haters. Making a film adaptation of such a musical, 당신 are met with equal reactions. The lovers, waiting in anticipation, and the haters, groaning about how far society has blown up a travesty. Since I'm neither, never before having seen the show 또는 read the book, I went to the film with an open mind- expecting to see a good movie with 음악 I knew. And that's what I got. There are many advantages to film. One is able to much...

What do we 사랑 Les Mis for? Well – you'll say – where should we start? The story, the characters, the music, the great performances... And, last, but not least: the lyrics.

It's going to be a kind of litterary analysis, but not taken too strictly. The order of the songs will be like in the musical (well, this time is the exception). So, we will start with...
