Les Misérables

by Daisy

It’s movie night. You want to watch something with romance and music, but your partner or company is more interested in something with adventure, action, and excitement. Well, look no further because Les Misérables has it all! Warning! There will be some spoilers if you continue to read this article!




The protagonist is Jean Valjean, a former convict who broke parole who has made a new name for himself as the mayor of the town, Digne. He’s known for his kindhearted ways, and the first thing you see him do as mayor is save a man from being crushed under a fallen cart. Then one night he agrees to take care of prostitute/former worker of his from the factory he owns - Fantine's child. Suddenly Inspector Javert comes to Valjean, who is under the alias as the mayor, saying they caught the convict Valjean. Being a man of integrity, Valjean couldn't let an innocent man become a slave to the law and goes to court to clear his name.

Now, Valjean has to go on the run so he can protect and raise Fantine’s child. Will Inspector Javert find him? The rest is up to you! I personally found this movie to be well put together and beautiful. I strongly recommend you go see it!
