The Wretched Lift Their Voices: Anne Hathaway & Hugh Jackman in 'Les Misérables'

<< < (7/14) > >>

Mikaela:
I am so excited for that film! I'm a huge Les Mis nut. I love the novel, I adore the musical.

And Anne looks and sings fantastic as Fantine - she doesn't overdo the pathos or try to really push that song and her voice to its limits to prove she can do it.  I think I will cry when I see the film.

I noticed that the link was broken to the clip of the filming of the Finale number (Do you hear the people sing) so I took a look round YouTube to find a working link to the same clip in case anyone else comes looking like I did. The link is HERE.

Thanks for this. I can hardly wait. I have just read that it is opening in NZ on January 10. However it is opening in Australia on Dec 26. At the moment I plan to fly home from Sydney on Dec 27. Will I join the queues or wait? I have seen the stage version 4 times and would have seen many more if it was not so expensive.

Have just seen this interview with Hugh Jackman on Australian TV
