Anyways. I'm subscribed to a few different theater channels on Facebook. They have all been showing clips of the upcoming movie Les Miserables. After the clip I saw tonight of Samantha Barks singing On My Own, I must say I am uber excited to see this movie. So much so that I am dragging my dear husband to the movies on Christmas Day to see it. Now before you all say poor husband, he also loves Les Miserables, he just didn't want to have to get dressed on Christmas. Okay so maybe we'll save it until the weekend after. Anyways I'm a fairly new Les Miserables fan. I was only turned onto it when he forced me to watch it in 2011 for the 25th Anniversary edition at the O2. I didn't think it was my type of production. I was into things like Rent and the Phantom of the Opera. However it opened my eyes to a wonderful world of West End stars and now it is one of my all time favorite musicals. Subsequently it created a spur of the moment trip to Manchester England last May to see Ramin Karimloo in concert. He played Enroljas in that version. The concert was amazing and so was the trip in general. We also got the chance to see the West End Production of Phantom of the Opera. I only wish Ramin had a part in the movie, however I think the cast is amazing. I love the idea of the live singing and choosing strong actors who all have backgrounds in the music world. I am just really excited about it!
