    ★★★

    (Valjeans unbending contorted suffering juxtaposed with his serene stately leadership, his make out with the camera crying at the priests mercy, Hatheaway’s tears at becoming a prostitute for her kid (she says so much with just her head), Crowe and Jackmans saber/plank duet where crow reveals he’s from the gutter too, Helena Bonham Carters natural ease with an otherwise over the top character, the sets and props and effects are MAD for the time, everyone is very skilled at singing…
