The phrase Les Misérables has been around the consciousness of many for a hundred and fifty one years. It has become a cross-cultural artefact‚ whether it may be the book‚ the musical‚ or the movie. One can say that references to any 0f the three can be found in everyday life. It has been around far longer than any of us have been; it’s safe to say that it is a real phenomenon.

I agree with the statement‚ “In Les Miserables‚ Victor Hugo is trying to say that human nature is basically good”.

Movie Review I. Introduction Les Miserables‚ as a theatrical enterprise‚ was always about sweeping sentimentality and the grandiose 1862 Victor Hugo novel‚ which translates to‚ “The Victims‚” was never short on ennui either. This film version is a particular tearjerker because of the much-discussed live action singing and some excellent casting. II. Characters Jean Valjean - Cosette’s adopted father. Valjean is an ex-convict who leaves behind a life of hatred and deceit and makes his fortune
