JEANVALJEANS IS NOTHING NOW

[jeanvaljeans]

Long story short: I have not been dealing particularly well with the sudden expansion of the Les Mis fandom. That isn’t to say I don’t like seeing new faces around, because quite the contrary, I’m extremely glad more people are discovering my favourite story and musical of all time. The problem is mainly due to the fact that I have been very busy with work lately, and since fandom stuff seem to happen quite quickly these days, I no longer feel in touch with what’s happening anymore. Therefore, I’ve chosen to take a breather from everything related to LM for the time being.

I do miss talking to you guys though, so I probably will return at some point.

Thanks for reading!

LES MISÉRABLES (2012) vs. THE FUGITIVE (1993) ↳ Based on the popular '60s television series of the same name, The Fugitive (dir. Andrew Davis) follows the plight of wrongfully convicted Dr. Richard Kimble (Harrison Ford) as he goes across the country seeking his wife's true murderer, despite being himself relentlessly pursued by Deputy U.S. Marshal Samuel Gerard (Tommy Lee Jones). Both show and film took inspiration from Victor Hugo's 19th-century French epic, and one NY Times critic noted: "In the nightmarish landscape of this story, the justice system itself has failed. The lean plot is as enduring as that of Les Misérables, with Detective Gerard playing Javert to Kimble's Jean Valjean." [x]
