never say 'die'.

there's some good in this world and it's worth fighting for. (personal)

hey yall remember when victor hugo was talking about our boy grantaire and said “his mind could do without faith, but his heart could not do without friendship: a profound contradiction for affection in itself is faith”? yeah, me too.

Mabeuf and Enjolras

It has been estimated that […] the civilized world, in every part of the globe, fires off daily one hundred and fifty useless cannon shots. At six francs per shot, that amounts to nine hundred thousand francs a day, or three hundred million a year, gone up in smoke. This is only one item. Meanwhile, the poor are dying of hunger. -Victor Hugo, Les Miserables

call me crazy but I think ‘sexy martyr’ is exactly what victor hugo was going for with enjolras

Guess it’s time to watch the first episode of Les Mis BBC.

Graphic design is my passion.

This reads EXACTLY like a Star Wars opening scroll

[pilferingapples]

omg someone who can animate things PLEASE make a Les Mis SW-style Opening Scroll 

[rose-fission]

@pilferingapples @marius-new-hat-and-coat

An EXCELLENT idea.

got it from here, if anyone else wants a go: https://starwarsintrocreator.kassellabs.io/

Really with the episodes had titles now but close enough.

ALRIGHT LISTEN…literally pls listen (with headphones)…..you  wanna hear valjean’s soliloquy mixed up with javert’s suicide and hear how they literally PERFECTLY come together at the very end?? you gotta press play

listen to the fucking genius of these two songs…listen to how these songs, with the same melody, the same power and force, that take place during the turning point in these character’s lives, perfectly encapsulate them. one song is the start of a new story and the other is the end. it’s the same song repurposed to communicate that every single person lives in this world differently, and that love of any kind is the most powerful fucking thing in this whole damn world

Honestly, Bishop Myriel saying “we should have free education” and “sin is not caused by the sinner but rather the lack of opportunity given by the privileged” and Hugo commenting on that with “he had strange opinions. must have gotten it from the Bible or something” is the biggest power move

Oh my WOOORRRD! Les Misérables Downtime.

George Blagden posted this Barricade boy doo-wop quartet.

Edit: In the video are Jamie Muscato, Iwan Lewis, Jos Slovick and Joseph Peters.

Reblog this if you’re primarily a Les Mis blog!

A lot of blogs I follow have shifted focus and I’m looking to get more LM on my dash.

Bonus points if you’re a content creator and/or also post about (musical) theatre, aesthetics, or history!

Jehan: hi youtube, I’m Jehan and that’s Montparnasse, welcome to our unboxing video! [camera pans to Montparnasse holding a crowbar and kneeling beside a sealed coffin]

Here’s our beloved Jehan as The Hanged Man!

The Hanged Man: Surrender, new perspective, enlightenment

I’m going to be making a whole set of Les Mis themed tarot cards, maybe one a week depending on school work. There’s a total of 21 different cards so this will take a while, but I’m incredibly excited for this!

[batcii-archive-deactivated20210]

here’s my finished piece of les amis de l'ABC for the @foundfamilyzine! you can still pick up a copy over here. i’d never done a full canon-era group illustration before so this was very fun
