In an effort to actually write posts in a timely fashion, rather than thinking about what I might write while I am not falling asleep and then never actually writing it which is pretty well useless for everyone...
Non-spoiler: loved it, as expected.
( Spoilers, sweetie... )
Oh, and we arrived a little late in the middle of a super-long promo for the new Les Mis movie which made it sound genuinely interesting. Not that I care about all the stuff about singing their parts live in their scenes, just the existence of Hugh Jackman plus Anne Hathaway singing my favorite song from the play was enough to sell me. I was only slightly snotty about the clips of Éponine singing "On My Own" and how freaking whiny the character is. Keep in mind that all my knowledge of the musical comes from being forced by my best friend in high school to listen to the soundtrack again and again, and her explaining the plot to me. I haven't seen the previous movie, read the original novel, or ever seen a production of it. So.
