One of the best musical bio-pics there is. A cruel tale of one of the biggest wastes of life ever. Knowing the ending before even watching makes the 1hr 40ish watch fairly haunting.
An early subscriber to everything that Elvis got right a few years ago, would watch again.
A film that can either be an easy watch, or a struggle.
Anne Hathaway, Eddie Redmayne and Samantha Banks save this from being a car crash and make it pretty good adaptation considering theare to film is pretty difficult.
Sacha Baron Cohen and Helena Bonham Carter are also incredibly well cast, while Russell Crowe is a bit of an abomination as Javert.
One of the greatest comedies ever written, and has aged excellently.
