Les Mis

Woah so ok who else is extremely excited about the Les Mis film coming out in December? It's quite possible that I have never been so excited for a film. I'm a big musical fan, but Les Mis is overall my favorite by a long shot. The story line itself based on Victor Hugo's novel is unbelievably profound, but the music adds so many rich layers to this already decadent cake of deliciousness. I have seen the musical itself twice in London on the West End (Once with Alfie Boe, who was phenomenal). I'm so excited to see Hugh Jackman as Jean Valjean, and a little worried about Russell Crowe playing Javert, but who knows maybe he'll surprise me. Really though I have extremely high expecations for this movie, and am just so very excited. For those of you who haven't seen the new behind the scenes clip for this flick check it out.
