Very minor point here, but has anyone else noticed the irony of Hugh Jackman, who also played P.T. Barnum, having the line “This is a factory, not a circus”? Jack of all trades, indeed. Very well done to all the actors!

[@richardhurwitz2798]

A tiny but great point. Love both movies musically and story wise. Les Miserables is objectively the better musically movie of the two but the greatest showman still has excellent music and that movie reminds me of we bought a zoo a good kids movie and panic at the disco has excellent reimagings of the greatest showmans soundtracks and songs.

At the end of the day you're another day older And that's all you can say for the life of the poor It's a struggle, it's a war And there's nothing that anyone's giving One more day standing about, what is it for? One day less to be living At the end of the day you're another day colder And the shirt on your back doesn't keep out the chill And the righteous hurry past They don't hear the little ones crying And the plague is coming on fast, ready to kill One day nearer to dying! At the end of the day there's another day dawning And the sun in the morning is waiting to rise Like the waves crash on the sand Like a storm that'll break any second There's a hunger in the land There's a reckoning still to be reckoned and There's gonna be hell to pay At the end of the day! At the end of the day you get nothing for nothing Sitting flat on your bum doesn't buy any bread There are children back at home And the children have got to be fed And you're lucky to be in a job And in a bed! And we're counting our blessings! Have you seen how the Foreman is fuming today? With his terrible breath and his wandering hands? It's because little Fantine won't give him his way Take a look at his trousers, you'll see where he stands! And the boss, he never knows That the Foreman is always on heat If Fantine doesn't look out Watch how she goes She'll be out on the street! At the end of the day it's another day over With enough in your pocket to last for a week Pay the landlord, pay the shop Keep on working as long as you're able Keep on working 'til you drop Or it's back to the crumbs off the table You've got to pay your way At the end of the day! And what have we here, little innocent sister? Come on, Fantine, let's have all the news! Dear Fantine, you must send us more money Your child needs a doctor There's no time to lose Give that letter to me It is none of your business With a husband at home And a bit on the side! Is there anyone here Who can swear before God She has nothing to fear? She has nothing to hide? What is this fighting all about? Someone tear these two apart This is a factory, not a circus! Come on, ladies, settle down I am the Mayor of this town I run a business of repute Deal with this, Foreman Be as patient as you can Yes, Monsieur Madeline I might have known the bitch could bite I might have known the cat had claws I might have guessed your little secret Ah, yes, the virtuous Fantine Who keeps herself so pure and clean You'd be the cause I had no doubt Of any trouble hereabout You play a virgin in the light But need no urgin' in the night She's been laughing at you While she's having her men She'll be nothing but trouble again and again You must sack her today Sack the girl today! Right, my girl. On your way!

the tempo & sense of urgency of the song is moreso reflective of the pervasive angst of the era and the plight for survival, as well as the tension that builds around this pivotal scene than about the literal time of day. Then again, even beyond this they would all have prob. been eager to get out of there, having had enough of that creepy foreman for the day.

Everyone talked about how bad Russell Crowe's voice was in this film and while Crowe wasn't very good, I thought Hugh Jackman was worse. His voice is SO nasal and pinched that I can't believe people think he's a good singer. He never was. His voice is not pleasant to listen to.

[@piratesswoop725]

I haven’t watched this film or listened to it’s soundtrack since I saw it in December 2012 and I forgot how annoying it was the they kept snipping out lines from the songs, and Valjean’s “I run a business of repute, I am the mayor of this town” just gets flipped for…what reason? And the awkward cut where he just trails off and doesn’t even finish the song HELP

[@ethanaverton7287]

Thank god someone else thought the same. I can’t stand hooper’s silly shooting style.

[@albionicamerican8806]

What are these women complaining about? They have sound money based on gold & silver.

[@g.Raider]

But the foreman is obviously a complete scumbag who daily objectifies all of them from a position of power, and Fantine is the scapegoat, likely due to her enforcing boundaries and all the other women being resentful of her self-respect and paranoid of how the foreman’s potential reaction to her refusal could affect their own safety (the second is a more valid instinct but they could’ve found another solution without bullying Fantine). It’s a similar mindset to blaming a woman for “stealing” a married/partnered man’s attention instead of holding him accountable for being respectful and staying true to his previous commitments.

[@user-ch5qd3uz3l]

imagine reading or watching les miserables and your takeaway being "ah yes, a whole story about the plight and struggle of the working class in industrial France, but at least they had the gold standard. i am a libertarian and i cannot be within 500 feet of school grounds"

​@@user-ch5qd3uz3l Ironically Friedrich Engels pursued relationships with prole women, like French grisettes and Irish women who worked in Manchester's textile factories. His friend Karl Marx didn't approve of Engels's taste in women, since his wife Jenny was the daughter of a baron.
