Off they go <3
Anyone who has a copy of the Julie Rose translation of Les Mis— can you help me explore a grand baloney cover up conspiracy?
In Les Mis Volume 1 Book 6 Chapter 2, Jean Valjean is expressing confusion at Javert. In some editions of the Julie Rose translation, he says
“What is all this baloney?”
While in other editions of the Rose translation he says:
“What is all this garbage?”
They took away our baloney! The government has stolen our baloney! We’re not allowed to call Javert’s baloney what it is!
I’m trying to find out what editions of Rose use which translation— Can you open up your Rose translation and let me know whether you have “baloney” or “garbage?” (The Kindle version I own has “garbage,” while another ebook version I own has “baloney.”)
Again: you’ll find it in Volume 1 book 6 Chapter 2, “how Jean can turn into Champ.” It’s towards the beginning of the scene, right after Javert orders Madeleine to dismiss him but before he reveals he denounced Madeleine to the prefecture.
“So that’s it! Why?” cried Monsieur Madeleine. “What is all this baloney? What are you trying to say? How has a criminal act been committed against me by you? What have you done to me? What wrong have you done me? You accuse yourself, you wish to be replaced—”
You can help solve the mystery of #baloneygate
Very important question that's totally unrelated to a fanfic I'm writing:
Who is your favorite extremely obscure Les Mis character? Like, the one that no one even knows exists because they've got like two lines in a thousand page novel?
I don't know if the sound mixing did something or if we were all just wrong this whole time but seeing Les Misérables 2012 in the theater has me firmly convinced we should have been bullying (lighthearted) Hugh Jackman instead of Russell Crowe this whole time.
Impromptu Totally Unopinionated Javert Poll:
Javert isn't a villain because:
he's not powerful enough (the true villain is Society)
he means well (he absolutely does not)
he's not unique enough (just an aspect of the True Villain, Society)
Hugo WANTS him to be a villain but Hugo is WRONG and cops rock (who ARE you)
he's one of the MIserables, so he can't be a villain
he IS a villain and Valjean should be happy he dies (hello 98)
he's not the villain, he's the comic relief
something else I will put in the tags
just wondering…
Best original cast Les Misérables recording?
1985 London Cast Recording
1987 Broadway Cast Recording
i love how us valvert girlies are incapable of being normal about those old men. someone could post "au where javert is the bread valjean stole" and i would be like. pop off my liege. reblog.
one thing i unironically love about les mis 2012 is javert putting his medal on gavroche
Made me worse but love it anyway <3
Monsieur Madeleine, your arrival in our town was heaven-sent. We are truly grateful for your technical ingenuity and business acumen, to say nothing of your generous philanthropic endeavors. But, if you'll forgive me, I must ask: why does the local policeman bark at you when you walk by?
tiktok comments: the gifts that keep on giving
can this be true? i don’t believe what I see. A man your age, to be as strong as you are
“old man yaoi” this “old man yaoi” that. literally don’t utter that term unless u have read valvert fanfic
If Jean Valjean has 1 million fans I am one of them. If Jean Valjean has 5k fans I am one of them. If Jean Valjean has 1 fan that fan is me. If Jean Valjean has zero fans I am no longer on this earth. If the world is against Jean Valjean then I am against the world. Til my last breath I’ll support Jean Valjean
LES MISÉRABLES will return to theaters for 1 week only starting February 23rd for a Dolby exclusive.
If there's any character in this world who suffers from literary Ken-ification it's Patroclus. Especially in the zeitgeist of today (thanks tsoa), it's always Achilles AND Patroclus, never just Patroclus. Who is he? Why does he exist? He is Achilles' boyfriend! What's his job? Death! In the sense that he just. Dies. That's just his job now. Death. Death and Achilles' boyfriend. That's it.
I read the thing
I am a changed woman. Sorry for even making this post when Victor Hugo said it 150ish years before me
