Les Miserables

                                                        ~Fight~Dream~Hope~Love~   

     If you love musicals like I do, chances are you are going to LOVE Les Miserables. Hugh Jackman, best known for his role in the X-MEN series, brought the character Jean Valjean to life in this production. Jackman's character Jean Valjean becomes free from slavery in the early moment of the movie. The officer granting Valjean his freedom is portrayed by the New Zealand native, Russell Crowe. The officer named Javert, assigns Jean Valjean, aka 24601, to parole. After Monsieur Valjean breaks his parole he, with help from God, finds a new way of living. Many years later, Javert finds Jean Valjean and is set to sentance him for breaking his parole. Jean comes across one of his former factory workers and takes her to get help. As Fantine (Anne Hathaway) is dying, Valjean agrees to take care of Cosette, Fantine's daugher. As soon as he takes the child under his protection, he begins running from Javert, dreading the thought of becoming a slave once more. When Cosette (Amanda Seyfried) is grown, she falls in love with Marius (Eddie Redmayne) who is a leader in the French Revolution. I give the musical Les Miserables a POP!!!!! It was a story of redemption and mercy, and they did beautifuly with the production. You should really check Les Mis out! :)
