In the traditions of my people I saw a movie on Christmas day. Les Miserable is certainly one of my favorite musicals and the 1998 non-musical movie with Liam Neeson wasnt half bad. I wasnt fond of the casting choices in the new les mis..they weren't terrible..I thought Russle Crow was a good choice unlike some people..and this Samatha Barks actress is a prefect woman..woof woof woof! though didnt have much of a role..the rest of the cast didnt work for me. The singing is still great, at least for half the movie. I've always felt the 2nd half of Les mis was never on the same level of story or song as the first. Its worth seeing if you havnt heard the music recently and its not in any way a bad movie. But seeing it in a theater venue is better. And the 1998 movie is better (but no singing). And the CD is better.
