les miserables the movie

This movie is known for being one of the great plays. Now to see well know actors that most people thought could not sing is mind blowing. At the same time though the story itself drags to the point of being bored with it. But then again I can see how it won so many awards from the the academy, all the aesthetics make each shot a powerful statement for that moment in time. That alone is something only a few movies have achevie.
