reject modernity (enjolras actors in any way acknowledging enjoltaire) embrace tradition (“I remember thinking of talking to Aaron about the subject as we started filming, and as I was about to talk to him he was interrupted by someone else, and then suddenly I understood. That was the perfect example of what the dynamic between us should be. And I realised that actually NOT talking to Aaron about it at all was the perfect way to create that subtextual thing between Grantaire and Enjolras. And actually, I didn’t talk to anyone about it. Not even Tom. I just kept it a secret and thought that if people can read into it, great, and if people don’t notice it, that’s also fine because it’s not the main focus of the student plot. I still don’t know to this day if Aaron even knows about the whole E/R relationship, but it doesn’t matter, because I don’t think Enjolras should.”)

However, this sceptic had one fanaticism. This fanaticism was neither a dogma, nor an idea, nor an art, nor a science; it was a man: Enjolras. Grantaire admired, loved, and venerated Enjolras.

do y’all recall pete’s expression after balth casually confirms they’re in love and he remembers they can finally be open and honest about it because-

I'd just like to thank @thecandlewasters for creating something that has made my quarantine better, while simultaneously destroying me emotionally over and over again.

(I've said it before, and I'll say it again- go watch Nothing Much To Do)

(And also Lovely Little Losers- it's the sequel)

those who barely missed becoming historic: grantaire

Among all these passionate hearts and all these undoubting minds there was one skeptic. How did he happen to be there? from juxtaposition. The name of this skeptic was Grantaire, and he usually signed with the rebus: R. Grantaire was a man who took good care not to believe anything.

Musicals are weird. For example, I watched Les Mis on a whim 6 years ago and now I’m a socialist.

when enjolras said “where is the king who runs this show?” in les misérables (2012) while throwing his arm in the air as if he could physically launch the monarchy out of france with his bare hands…………………………i felt that

[faistylegs]

honestly same

[music-hetta]

isnt that the moment the book in his hands disappears and it looks like next to the monarchy he also launched that book into fekken space?

Ronan had risen. The immense gleam of the whole combat which he had missed, and in which he had had no part, appeared in the brilliant glance of the transfixed drunken man.

He repeated: “Long live the Republic!” crossed the room with a firm stride and placed himself in front of the guns beside Adam.

“Finish both of us at one blow,” said he.

And turning gently to Adam, Ronan said to him:

“Do you permit it?”

Adam pressed his hand with a smile.

“What’s your type” you ask me. I start to sweat. I remember my favourite dead French revolutionaries from the 19th century. “I… I don’t have one” i say instead.

to test Waterford watercolor paper (my favorite btw!), I finally reproduced this Enjolras from Arai’s manga (the intro pages from volume 7, the scene of executing Le Cabuc) - the most beautiful and angelic one IMO

BBC Les Mis: We’re going to make a super accurate adaption of the book!

[prisonhannibal]

people on here act like modern au enjolras would be a successful politician like no u know damn well he’d be an actual convicted felon and who has gotten banned from five of his local bars and at least one grocery store and has probably punched at least one (1) cop in the past week 

[prisonhannibal]

enjolras: I would like to run for office I-

journalist: sir it says here that you have a criminal record and that you’ve been using your twitter account @ marxsupporter to tweet insults at politicians you dont like and advocate communism, is that true? 

enjolras: well y-

journalist: and is it true that you said that the entire system is broken and that the only way to fix it is through armed revolution? 

enjolras: yes and i was right

journalist: did you say, word for word, “I will personally guillotine every billionaire”?
