Everyone else seems to have given their opinions on the new Les Miserables movie and now I shall add mine to the number! First off I must say that I didn't actually watch the whole thing. I gave up on it round about when Marius first saw Cosette. The cinematography was starting to give me a headache with all the shaking and close-ups, and there was some very unnecessary bits in one or two scenes.That much is all that I know to be unique to the film, the rest of the decisions might have been made by the people who made the book into a musical in the first place. It seemed as though they were trying to keep as much as they could from the book but I found it so rushed and incomplete that they might as well have left it out. The music was quite good though, of course. The songs have been sung and played and repeated countless times by both myself and my younger sisters. At the End of the Day is one of my favorites.
