i am once again thinking about the "missing" scene from Les Miserables (1978) wherein Jean Valjean escapes from a coffin...I've seen gif sets of it, and the gist is that two versions of the movie exists-the theatrical cut and the tv cut. and one one of those is fully 20 minutes longer. and i've never been able to find the full version, literally anywhere online.
made a post a while back on how javert's suicide is often poorly portrayed in film adaptations to the point of accidental comedy, and how the 1978 movie in particular is the most unhinged example. audio warning for a loud trumpet blast, don't turn up your volume
How do you practice self-care?
The spirit of KALAGA
The highest quality of self-care is Meditation. It makes you transcend from self to Selfless.
How if your only self-care is victory you award yourself every moment. Self-care should not make you selfish but selfless to understand the promptitude of care.
“A person with care springing from the heart is caring enough to not require any form of…
I am pretty sure the main reason LM 1978 just does not work at all for me is that everyone who loves it agrees that Perkinsvert is the highlight of the film and to me he just always seems like he's doing math in his head , which, while admittedly tying in well to Hugo's revolutionary theme that Math is Bad, is not particularly compelling to watch
Going to try and get the series finished this weekend then next week I will watch a different adaptation.
I have now watched Les Mis
1925
1935
1978
1982
1998
Shoujo Cosette (to be finished soon)
I know there is another anime adaptation which I may watch if I can find it online. If not I'll watch a different one, which one should I watch next? (leave recommendations in comments)
Please keep in mind that I have seen the 2012 film adaptation of the musical a few times already though not recently and I'm not ready to watch it again yet even if it's just for screenshots and reviewing.
In case you were wondering LM 1925 is still my favourite adaptation closely followed by Shoujo Cosette and then LM 1982. I now somw people may prefer 1978 or 1998 and even 2012 adaptations but I have to respectfully disagree. Also as a 48 (nearly 49 year old I have to say I have thoroughly enjoyed Shoujo Cosette which is really aimed at young people/teenagers. I don't know if that means I'm regressing or if I'm losing the plot but it really is a wonderful series.
i'm not sure i shared these here yet! if i did, please forgive me. i made these over the course of about 6 months. I'm going to write them what they are because the picture is sooo blurry.
-I've been having these...notions (incorrect quote from Les Mis 1978, I punched out gold fabric to be the stars)
-You are the sentinels, silent and sure, keeping watching in the night (LM musical, i used seed beads as the stars)
-"There is no Monsieur le maire..." (LM 1978, this took fucking forever to do and it came out wonky!)
-"To love another person is to see the face of God" (LM musical. I had to do it to 'em. Added pompom trim to the hoop)
"You make beads here?" (Literally one passing line in LM 1978. It's so disgustingly blurry but I added random beads to the fabric. Also the fabric had been hand dyed and rinsing the stick-on pattern off stained the thread!!!)
The more I type the more I'm sure I posted these already. Too late and then again, they were a lot of work. I'm going to have such a swag dorm room in the fall.
Fairburn on steroids por Bingley Hall
Por Flickr:
Thirty of these broad gauge WT class 2-8-4Ts were built locally between 1959 and 1967 in four batches by Chittaranjan Locomotive Works. In 1978 they were still at work on the Eastern and South Central Railways of India, and possibly the Southern, but were not the easiest locos to track down. On 2 January 1979, WT 14026 was in use on SCR local passenger services in the Rajahmundry area. For me, not having seen the originals in the flesh, they always gave me the impression of being a souped up version of the LMS Fairburn and Stanier 2-6-4Ts.
