LES MISERABLES: AN OPERA OF MASTERPIECE





Good morning my dear readers!

My apologies for not having been able to post this blog last February 16, 2013. And now, here it is! I have been waiting for this day to finish this blog about this much-awaited movie. Forgive me as I could not fathom what kind of world I was before and until now.


On the first day, I was not quite sure the reason behind the urge of doing this blog. I could not even foretell the need in such a way that I did not see it coming. I was also a bit preoccupied why I felt the need to make this blog. But of course, there were a lot of reasons I suppose. Well, perhaps, one great reason is Anne Hathaway. 

Impeccably mounted as what other critics like me would say. I was and still are very thrilled to share my thoughts of the movie everyone was talking about last year. That was my first time to watch an intense opera. It has been very sweet to do things first time around. Indeed, it's a sweet memory to ponder on. 



Box Office Record

The film has accumulated a total of $441,809,770 in worldwide ticket sales. Indeed, that was a fair amount ending for an opera. Rumor has it, that this movie would not do good in the box office but nevertheless, it was reasonably high in a good note. If you would go and pay for a movie ticket, you always wanted to make it sure that it is worth it. I, indeed witnessed why this movie was a good catch in terms of watching it. 



Film Commentary

I could not find the words to express my deepest thoughts about this movie. I was really moved by the art in this movie itself and how the characters went about living their lives in struggles and pain. It is beyond imagination how each character made their way to life. Some did not have a good ending but nevertheless, the film was able to convey the message in extraordinary ways. There are opinions I can't seem to find and hold within this tale of compassion and of love. 

I must admit that this film has its flaws despite its triumphant beginning and ending. On a personal basis, I did not see any flaws except for the cameras going from one direction to another in a fraction of a second. That I found annoying but the thing is, it made so well that I could not even have any time to put my thoughts onto it. 


Les Miserables is a tale that tells a story of a man who struggles in life. Despite all the things that made him who he is, in the end, he is someone to follow. 


I believe this film in its own populist power so earnestly that it's very difficult to resist. I found this film to be exceedingly wicked. Indeed, a brilliantly made movie. I kind of think if a worm could possibly get away from a bird when it's going to eat the helpless worm. 


To put all things up, "Les Miserables" is magnificent. 




The Film in Real Life Situations


This film made me realize what must and must not be done and most of all, somehow, you are thinking the way I think now that this film made us realize how important it is to have a life and to care for it. Who would care for you if you are taking your life for granted? Cry at the height of the pain you are going through and Laugh at the height of what seems to be the happiest day of your life. What's going on with a person's life depends on how each one does it. 

This film brings back memories of pain and struggle to me. A life of nowhere and a meaningless life. Inspired by a lot of never ending and selfless stories, I, myself have found a meaning to continue life despite obstacles that keep going my way. Besides, I am here to make this life meaningful. 

There you have it. Thanks for reading. Until next time.
