Les Miserables

I started to read the book, but Victor Hugo goes on a bit for 21st century tastes.  I think the film covered the chapters I've read in about ten minutes.

Not impressed though - too sentimental for my tastes, too dark and dismal in colouring, and I can't remember any of the songs - they sounded the same to me.

Some pretty people, and a bit of comic relief with the landlord and his lady, but all in all, I'm glad I have seen it, and even gladder that it's over.
