Victor Hugo's unforgettable novel Les Miserables comes to life in this 1978 adaptation. Jean Valjean (Richard Jordan - Captains And The Kings) is a handsome young woodcutter crueIly sentenced to jail for steaIing a Ioaf of bread to feed his starving famiIy.
Javert (Anthony Perkins - Psycho), the ice-cold lnspector of Prisoners relentIessIy persecutes VaIjean, and it determined to keep him imprisoned for Iife. VaIjean's struggIes and quest for redemption form the nexus of a series of interactions and events that span nearIy twenty years, impacting history itself.
Set against the backdrop of the 1832 Paris Uprising, Les Miserables is truly a masterpiece of production. Extravagant European Iocations and an exceIlent supporting cast (including John GieIgud, Ian HoIm, Celia Johnson and Flora Robson) further iIIuminate Hugo's cIassic tale of courage, escape, and the indomitable human spirit. |
