2013-01 Les Miserables

We enjoyed Les Mis, the movie, about as much as any movie I can remember. We were reluctant to take our grandchildren because of negative reports from Laurel Young and Cleo Cohen. We sent our grandsons to see a James Bond movie full of violence, while the rest of us saw Les Mis with Abby. It was an engaging and moving experience. While in California, Brian's neighbor had a DVD of Les Mis through his associations in the movie industry and we watched it with Brian and Natalie and then with Elsa and Ava (fast forwarding through a couple of parts). I enjoyed the movie more the second and third times I saw it. I downloaded the book to my Kindle and I'm really enjoying the book - which puts the gentle priest into a bigger role.
