The Finale | Valjean's Death | Epilogue | Les Miserables | Screen Bites

As Valjean dies, Fantine's spirit guides him to join Éponine, Gavroche and the Friends of the ABC in the afterlife.
Wait, WHAT? Have you noticed that at some point of the greatest and saddest ending Anne Hathaway tries to hide from the camera? Could you tell us exactly when?
Les Misérables (2012) SYNOPSIS: After 19 years as a prisoner, Jean Valjean (Hugh Jackman) is freed by Javert (Russell Crowe), the officer in charge of the prison workforce. Valjean promptly breaks parole but later uses money from stolen silver to reinvent himself as a mayor and factory owner. Javert vows to bring Valjean back to prison. Eight years later, Valjean becomes the guardian of a child named Cosette after her mother's (Anne Hathaway) death, but Javert's relentless pursuit means that peace will be a long time coming.

Colm Wilkinson played Valjean in the 10th anniversary. Here, he's the bishop. The old Valjean begets the new Valjean, which is a nice touch.

[@jennidoesherbest]

Especially because the friggin way they framed it, their looks to each other are the thread from that priests kindness all the way to Cossettes life. It breaks my heart every time.

Keep in mind that in this scene, the Bishop is the Personification of God just as Fantine is Valjean's personal angel of death.

The theory that marius can hear the ghosts singing because theyre all his friends makes me cry

You arent human if you don't cry when Valjean says, "A man who only learned to love, when you were in his keeping"

For me, it’s when he says “On this page, I write my last confession.” That line seals the deal.

For me its always “Lord in heaven look down on him in mercy” though valjean and fantine were not lovers, theres a pure sacrificial, other-oriented love u know 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

[@SeekinOne]

I have never noticed the look Fantine gives Cosette at 2:00. A mother looking proudly at her daughter she practically gave her life for. This song get's me every time...

It makes me cry especially when I watch it at the West End musical 😢. Cosette is the photo if Les Mis

"To love another person is to see the face of God." That line gets me every time. It perfectly sums up what both spirituality and humans' capacities to love each other should be. Victor Hugo was an absolute genius.

[@chuckclark4160]

I cannot watch this scene without tearing up. There is a universal appeal to this scene, to the whole movie. 2 of the most human emotions are love and the desire for freedom. This movie, from beginning to end, summarizes both love for others and the desire for the desire for freedom.

No offence, i love the film but prefer the musical ❤

[@mikaylasophia343]

I watch this clip whenever I wanna feel something. there hasn't been a time where I haven't cried to this. always sobbing when fantine and the bishop give those sympathetic look to jv..and always chills when we get that final barricade shot. that final shot feels so universal. oppression is such a universal element of the human condition which is why LM has been able to strike a chord with so many. as long as there are martyrs to pay homage to, the spirit of revolution will never die in vain.

[@shwheat6315]

despite the sins jean valjean has commited earlier he has indeed redeemed himself and earned his place in heaven. Just hope one day when i die i get to see my loved ones in the afterlife the ending to les miserable is a great example

When life rips my emotions to threads, I'll use this movie to let it all out and have a good cleansing cry. Since 2012 I've seen it at least 10-15 times. I needed this scene today. Valjean's death hits me the hardest. Well done Hugh.

Yes, Cosette, forbid me now to die I'll obey I will try On this page I write my last confession Read it well When I, at last, am sleeping It's the story Of one who turned from hating The man who only learned to love When you were in his keeping Come with me Where chains will never bind you All your grief At last, at last behind you Lord in Heaven Look down on him in mercy Forgive me all my trespasses And take me to your glory Take my hand I'll lead you to salvation Take my love For love is everlasting And remember The truth that once was spoken To love another person Is to see the face of God Do you hear the people sing Lost in the valley of the night? It is the music of a people Who are climbing to the light For the wretched of the earth There is a flame that never dies Even the darkest night will end And the sun will rise They will live again in freedom In the garden of the Lord We will walk behind the ploughshare We will put away the sword The chain will be broken And all men will have their reward Will you join in our crusade?

I think it works better with it being the Bishop there at the end rather than Eponine; he set Valjean on the right path after all, whilst Valjean barely knows who Eponine is.

[@littlemissdiamond12]

You are right, but the harmony on "to salvation" is beautiful, so...

[@GeometricMason]

I interpret this as Fantine (not Eponine) being Valjean's personal angel of death and the bishop being the Personification of God.

[@scottishjedi1522]

It brings the story full circle. The Bishop is the one who ‘bought his soul for god’ and urged him to become a better man. It’s fitting that as Valjean ascends to heaven he’s greeted by the man who set him on the path to redemption.

[@mikeor-]

French Version: Jean Valjean: I no longer depart alone. I am happy To see your smile again, Now I at last may die. Cosette: You will live, Papa, you're going to live I want you to live, Listen to me! Valjean: Yes Cosette, You forbid me to die I will try to obey. On this page, I write my soul's confession And the secrets that you would want to know. It's the story, of a man who loved you so, He confided in you his life Before he disappeared. Fantine: Come with me, Where chains will never bind you. Let me guide you Towards supreme happiness. Lord in Heaven, look down on him in mercy. Valjean: Forgive me all my trespasses And take me to your kingdom. Fantine & Eponine: Take my hand, And come into his glory. Take the love, Which shines when life is fading. Fantine, Eponine, & Valjean: And remember, the truths within your prayer To love another person Is to be near God on Earth. Company: For the will of the people, None can extinguish our voice, And so the song will ring out forever, As it had so long before, We wish that our light will Penetrate the mask of night, To illuminate our land And to change our lives. The glorious day will come. When on its way to the ideal, Mankind will progress from evil to good And from falsehoods to truth. A dream may yet die, But hope lives on forever! Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong for humanity? For every fallen barricade, one hundred more will soon arise, For the will of the people, We hear the sound of distant drums, Announcing the future that they bring when tomorrow comes! Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong for humanity? For every fallen barricade, one hundred more will soon arise, For the will of the people, We hear the sound of distant drums, Announcing the future that they bring when tomorrow comes! Ah! Tomorrow comes!
