  A Chorus Line 1985

  ★★★ Watched by georgia 14 Jan 2022

  cutting most of the hello 12, hello 13, hello love montage is one of the biggest crimes in musical adaptation history
   
  (along with giving what i did for love to cassie) 
  (and changing the iconic opening number choreography)
  (and somehow diminishing the emotional impact of paul’s monologue?) 

  as you can tell, i’m a fan of the show but somehow hadn’t seen this adaptation till now. I still enjoyed it despite my gripes because i’m me and it’s a dance movie, but i’d recommend other people to just watch every little step instead — one of my favourite ever documentaries and the superior way of putting a chorus line on film.

  Les Misérables 2018

  ★★★ Watched by georgia 03 Feb 2019

  I have such mixed feelings on this series, and far too many feelings to write in a review of a length that I can be actually bothered to write 

  things I did like:

  - Lily Collins as Fantine 

  - The way Fantine’s story was handled

  - David Oyelowo as Javert

  - The Thenadiers

  - Gavroche

  - They let Enjolras and Grantaire die holding hands

  - They included workers and women at the barricade 

  - Some of the aesthetics/visuals were gorgeous

  - The last episode was a good and emotive stand alone feature
