For the hate meme: les mis the 2012 movie

Again, I’m going to put what I liked about it too, to avoid negativity. 

Hmmm, I have this general complaint with most movie musical adaptations, in that I would usually prefer if they used broadway actors and actresses instead of like… big name hollywood ones. and a lot of actors have done theater or musical theater before, or like, a lot of the secondary and tertiary characters (most of les amis, for example, and eponine) were minor actors (at the time) who had done a lot of theater, but like…. idk, a few of the main characters may not have been the voices i would have picked. 

ALSO ALSO THE FACT THAT THEY CUT SO MANY SCENES (READ: DRINK WITH MEEEEE) and never released them! or a director’s cut! what the fuck!

But I never got around to finishing the book and I’ve only seen two musical peformances (bootlegs), so I’m not really an authority, and I do like the movie. 

What I liked: Basically, the scale of the movie is amazing, from the opening scene with the flag and the prisoners to the ending with the epilogue and the barricades in heaven, it was done on a huge scale and it was so cool. Also, it was my first real contact with les mis other than the huge, ratty paperbacks that the seniors at my school would bitch about. But like, I don’t know… watching les mis for the first time was amazing. I remember seeing the preview a few months before it came out, and I wanted to see it SOOOO bad, so when it came out, I did go and see it. It was so emotional, especially the first time, especially Fantine’s part and then the very end. But like. The first time I heard the line “To love another person is to see the face of god,” and then when the epilogue really kicks in, I thought it was so beautiful and amazing, I just wanted that finale to never end.

hi!!

i've been dragging around from the end of your coat for two weeks,

i'm in the front row with a bottle, don't know what i can't decide,

take me out tonight,

dance me to your beauty like a burning violin

(more than just a dream)

(brainy by the national, front row by metric, there is a light that never goes out by the smiths, dance me to the end of love by the civil wars, out of my league by fitz and the tantrums)

send me a 'hi' and i'll put my playlist on shuffle, write down the first line of five songs and give it to you as a poem!

Oh goodness your aesthetic asks are beautiful. Could you perhaps do mine? If it's too much, then you don't have to!

you are crumbling buildings trapped in hazy nostalgia. you are the golden gloucestershire brick houses painted against the hills. you are students that drink coffee, watching the rain with twinges of narcissistic romance. you are the sound of vivaldi's winter allegro. 

if you were a flower, you'd be the wild rose -- a semblance of regality, perhaps a memory, but now nothing more than a roadside constellation of petals.

no longer accepting.

achillespeliides replied to your post:Okay so I had this cool customer at work today  ...

Ahhhh I love it when you end up having that one great conversation during work that just gets you to keep working through the day

For real though. Some people are so cool, others are.... not..... 

In another name related story, I was talking to this guy who asked waht my name is, and when I told him, he was like, "Oh, like the Stevie Nick's song? I love Stevie Nicks." And then he had his daughters, who were like... tiny little girls, come to the phone and say what their favorite Stevie NIcks/Fleetwod Mac songs were and I was like, oh my god, adorable little children saying my name, what a great way to begin the morning 

alternatively, a lot of mpeople fuck my name up and i have learned the dangers of having a weird name at a call center. some days i seriously consider lying to the custoemrs and saying my name is breanna
