“LES MISERABLES 2012″ Movie Review. LOVE EMPOWERS EVERYTHING.
“LES MISERABLES (2012)” PRESS PREVIEW
(A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE)
This CHRISTMAS, go watch LES MISERABLES the MUSICAL MOVIE.
It is a striking film with a haunting score that will tug at your heartstrings.
Oscar-winning director TOM HOOPER (“The King’s Speech”) leads his cast of stars to perform the songs “live” on-camera instead of having them lip-synch to pre-recorded tracks.
Set against the backdrop of 19th-century France, LES MISERABLES takes us through a heart-wrenching parable of angst, forgiveness and redemption, in a world shackled by injustice and the lack of compassion.
HUGH JACKMAN plays ex-prisoner Jean Valjean, hunted for decades by the ruthless policeman Javert (RUSSELL CROWE) after he breaks parole. When Valjean agrees to care for factory worker Fantine’s (ANNE HATTAWAY) young daughter, Cosette, their lives change forever.
This movie is a fitting tribute on the subject of the timeless resilience of the human spirit.
Yuletide season maybe, but go feel, watch and cry your heart out with the film’s characters, all in the spirit of love.
Love is universal, among other things.
Hope gears you up but it is love that keeps you going.
If you dare stand up in the spirit of love and fight for whatever you believe in,
Then you dare dream,
Because in eventuality, love empowers everything.
But only if you believe.
Feel the emotional anguish by the character Fantine as she sings:
“I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted …”
There is grandeur in its scope and scale that will make you sit up.
LES MISERABLES is a musical that’s both stylish and gritty, with rousing performances from an all star ensemble cast under director Tom Hooper’s relentless direction. Be mesmerized by the exuberant and biting performances of HUGH JACKMAN and ANNE HATHAWAY.
At 2 hour-and-38-minute long, it’s a beautiful and inspiring movie that will linger on your mind long after you leave the cinema, a true musical that must be seen more than once.
CREATIVE CONTENT prioritizes on this BLOG.
You bet it's pure bliss if every ARTICLE can also beam like a piece of KOOL deviant art.
I dabble with a colorful tapestry of VISUALS and WORDS to ham my message, to tell the stories in my own way.
A PICTURE radiates a thousand words. For sure.
Herein lies my heartbeat, my soul - offsetting every rhythm and tone, expounding on my private aesthetic world.
STEP RIGHT IN.

IS THIS CHILD REALLY LAUGHING? FILMS DEMONSTRATE THAT LIFE MAY NOT BE WHAT IT SEEMS.
KOOL MISSION (STATEMENT)
I used to be an AD MAN, promoting and positioning BRANDS.
That was the past.
My present life revolves around FILMS.
PEOPLE often ask me - aside from being an EXECUTIVE PRODUCER, why I'd choose to write about ENTERTAINMENT.
My answer is simple.
LIFE imitates and radiates ART, if you care to look.
With the wicked glitz of Hollywood blockbusters, films have a dedication to the viewer, a role to portray.
It’s often easy to overlook the mesmerizing, transformative effect that motion pictures have on the world.
Beyond transporting viewers into new worlds and fantasies, films exercise a definitive didactic power. They shed light on an issue, paint a story and chronicle history.
Films have the persuasive power to cajole, to influence people, to “draw” them into celluloid “situations”, and in doing so, they demonstrate how the world can be changed.
I write about FILMS, therefore I am.
Through the powerful medium of film, you get to “live” the lives of the characters you have always envisioned to emulate - from the reel to the real, and vice-versa.
