Les Miserables-A Resounding Musical Treat

Symbol of Revolution
This is one great musical based on the story by Victor Hugo of the French Revolution and one man's atonement for stealing bread, his retribution of 19 winters and a man, bent of catching him called Inspector Javier for breaking parole.

Love in Battle-scarred Paris
The songs are great particularly Anne Hathaway singing I believe and a young Cossette  sating Castle on a Cloud.


Jean Valjean the Protagonist
The story ended well with the loose ends being sewn up well where the value of forgiveness overtakes vengeance.

You must be Broadway inclined to enjoy this movie.

Javier who never gives up!
I did since I enjoyed Miss Saigon very much when it was staged in Drury Lane, London.

The Unfortunate Fantine
The music, song and lyrics are strangely similar and powerful.

Cossette 
The songs will play in your mind many times over after you have seen the movie.
