Description

Although the name sounds great and fits wonderfully, it's not entirely justifiable, as neither of the two main characters are from Disney movies; still, I couldn't pass up the opportunity.  After I did the Shakespeare series, I started on musicals; here's my collage for Les Mis, which is probably the greatest musical ever written.  The original work was a book, Les Misérables, written by a man named Victor Hugo, the same man who wrote another book called the Hunchback of Notre-Dame; if you're wondering why the Disney version was such a huge, glorious, musical, it's because of the unconventional rule that all Victor Hugo works adapted to film must be grand and glorious musicals.  Sorry, Weber, Zimmer, and Menken; as amazingly wonderful as you are, it is Schönberg who brings us to our knees.  Here's my casting call:

Sinbad - Jean Valjean
King Arthur - Javert
Milo - Marius
Jane - Cosette
Kayley - Eponine
Phoebus - Enjolras
Snoops and Medusa - The Thénardiers
Cinderella - Fantine
Cody (The Rescuers Down Under) - Gavroche

Just now noticing I use Phoebus for a lot of things (he is one of my top Disney crushes).  Hope you like this; thanks!

That might work. ...so long as it's in two parts.



Fun fact : while Disney hasn't technically made an adaptation of Les Misérables yet...

...they currently have the distribution rights to at least two of them.

...maybe three.


-The 1952 one that is strangely obscure despite having Michael Rennie, Debra Paget, Robert Newton, Cameron Mitchell and Joseph Wiseman.



-The 1935 best picture-nominated one with Fredric March and Charles Laughton.

(sadly thenardier is in it for less than a minute. or maybe it was just his wife)

(it was the last movie released before Zanuck's 20th Century pictures merged with the Fox film Corporation)

(and the first after that was an adaptation of Call of the wild. ...why does that sound familiar)



-And rewinding to the William Fox days there's the 1917 one with William Farnum.

I put it as honorable mention as I'm not sure if a copy of this still exists, and if it does... ...well, by now it might already be in the public domain.
