The Cast of Les Mis.
Cesia and I decided to show Les Misérables for our movie presentation. The movie entails the story of Jean Valjean, a prisoner of the French Revolution trying to reach a better place for himself. After serving his time in prison for stealing a loaf of bread to feed his sister's son, Valjean has to face society's contempt towards "Criminals." No one is willing to hire nor help him until he runs into a Priest who welcomes him with open arms. The Priest sparks the turning point in Valjean's life where he decides to forgive himself for his past and start a new life. Valjean was no longer. His new name was Mr. Lameur, mayor of his city.
The story contains lots of characters that are opposite of each other but emphasize a certain situation that everyone can relate to. The most tragic character is Fantine, a mother who has to sacrifices herself for her daughter's well being. Stressed and worried about her financial situation, she eradicates all the things that make up the identity and confidence of a woman. She sells her hair; a symbol of pride and beauty; and her body, which represent the holy temple of your soul lies. Her sacrifices were not vain. Cosette, the daughter of Fantine, is adopted by the wealthy and renewed Valjean. Cosette grows up only to fall in love with the dashing Marius, a revolutionary leader fighting for equality. While being raised by horrible foster parents, Cosette grew up with a girl named Eponine, who adds an emotional level to the movie as she showacases what its felt to be in love with someone you doesn't love you back. I am very impressed and applaud Victor Hugo for creating this eternal story.
P.S Check out Lea Salonga, broadway actress of Eponine, sing On My Own. She is also the voice of Disney's Princess Jasmine and Princess Mulan.
