#les miserables 1982

[mimmixerenard]

Saw the 1982 French adaptation of Les Misérables today. The parallel between the very first and very last scenes made me choke.

À Toulon ... (In Toulon...)

"Vous êtes libre." (You are free.)

"Maintenant, vous êtes libre." (Now, you are free.)

... dans les limbes. (...in limbo.)

So obviously it inspired me to draw another little something heavily based on that. I however chose to draw the characters the way I envision them (do note that the Valjean design will probably change, as I did not think it through too much yet!) instead of the actors themselves.

And honestly, it had been a while since the last time I was so productive in terms or drawing...!

@pilferingapples​ asked me to post this reaction image I made, inspired by the Amount of Weather the creators of Les Mis 1982 had to deal with when filming.

Montparnasse and Magnon in Les Misérables (1982) [Source]

Please note that the archive source incorrectly labels the characters in this still as La Thénardier and Gavroche, which makes me giggle.

#montparnasse #magnon #love the presence of Magnon— and her unique role— in this particular adaptation! #I’ve (unofficially) decided that the two other women in this picture are Fauntleroy and Les-pieds-en-l’air respectively #les miserables #les mis #lm 1982 #adaptations

grantaire for the blorbo bleebus form

Do you know the door you just opened for asking about him. My man. It’s been how many years since I got into les mis and I’ve seen way to many versions- read the brick twice and this Mf remains in my head rent free. I think I’m out of it and he’s just sitting there.

Really wish I could’ve seen Steven as R, but the guy in the Us tour two years ago was great. Raymond is still a fav and I think if we look past the many many mistakes of BBC les mis - they had one of the Best R’s

Also worth mentioning the 1982? 84? French film for as fucking weird as it got in some places was good, anything is better then the fucking 70s one. (If I remember right I had a night where I binged all the movie versions I could get hold of)

Another side tangent but the more I watch the more I grow to really dislike the 2012 movie and realize it kinda fundamentally ruined how people view most characters at least fandom wise. 25th anniversary and all star recording proved you can do The Whole Musical and people will go nuts (and they just stood there imagine with a movie budget!!) it especially did wild amounts of damage to R- like taking out almost all of his lines and then giving him his solo only to not actually include it in the fucking movie and taking away his relationship with Gavroche (don’t get me wrong it’s cute with courf but only serves to remove even more from R’s character, complexity and role within the movie).

6 albums I’ve been listening to a lot lately! Plus one track from each that I’m especially fond of.

thank you for the tag @vanessaaftonsgirl 🫡

haven’t been as much on my album grind lately but I’d say these are some I’ve listened to pretty frequently in the past few months

crosby, stills & nash (1969) - crosby, stills, and nash. suite judy blue eyes is one of my favorite songs of all time.

can’t buy a thrill (1972) - steely dan. every single song on this album is amazing. if I had to pick one I especially like, I’d go with fire in the hole.

aja (1977) - steely dan. again, another perfect album imo, but I’ve had home at last on repeat recently

remain in light (1980) - talking heads. been fond of the great curve as of late.

bridge over troubled water (1970) - simon & garfunkel. Kinda impossible for me to pick between the boxer and the only living boy in new york. both masterpieces 😩

the concert in central park (1982) - simon & garfunkel. this version of scarborough fair is especially haunting and beautiful

honorable mention:

les miserables original broadway cast recording (1987). love terrence mann’s version of stars

I tag anyone who wants to play along!!

LES MIS LETTERS IN ADAPTATION - The Bishop in the Presence of an Unknown Light, LM 1.1.10 (Les Miserables 1982)

“Bishop,” said he, with a slowness which probably arose more from his dignity of soul than from the failing of his strength, “I have passed my life in meditation, study, and contemplation. I was sixty years of age when my country called me and commanded me to concern myself with its affairs. I obeyed. Abuses existed, I combated them; tyrannies existed, I destroyed them; rights and principles existed, I proclaimed and confessed them. Our territory was invaded, I defended it; France was menaced, I offered my breast. I was not rich; I am poor. I have been one of the masters of the state; the vaults of the treasury were encumbered with specie to such a degree that we were forced to shore up the walls, which were on the point of bursting beneath the weight of gold and silver; I dined in Dead Tree Street, at twenty-two sous. I have succored the oppressed, I have comforted the suffering. I tore the cloth from the altar, it is true; but it was to bind up the wounds of my country. I have always upheld the march forward of the human race, forward towards the light, and I have sometimes resisted progress without pity. I have, when the occasion offered, protected my own adversaries, men of your profession. And there is at Peteghem, in Flanders, at the very spot where the Merovingian kings had their summer palace, a convent of Urbanists, the Abbey of Sainte Claire en Beaulieu, which I saved in 1793. I have done my duty according to my powers, and all the good that I was able. After which, I was hunted down, pursued, persecuted, blackened, jeered at, scorned, cursed, proscribed. For many years past, I with my white hair have been conscious that many people think they have the right to despise me; to the poor ignorant masses I present the visage of one damned. And I accept this isolation of hatred, without hating any one myself. Now I am eighty-six years old; I am on the point of death. What is it that you have come to ask of me?” “Your blessing,” said the Bishop.

A special shout-out to Les Misérables 1982 for giving us the closest thing that we might ever see to the Némorin sequence being implemented in an on-screen adaptation of Hugo’s story.

Whilst we don’t witness Montparnasse go and encounter Éponine directly, we do see Éponine and Azelma keep watch and get arrested by the police… and as the police leave, taking Éponine and Azelma away with them, who should emerge from the shadows but our favourite devilish dandy. This certainly implies that he was lurking around waiting for Éponine, or perhaps they had already slipped away for a tryst and returned back to Gorbeau before the arrest happened.

I’m also very grateful to this adaptation for giving us a further interaction between these characters after Éponine and Azelma are released from prison. There isn’t much to this scene I’m afraid, but I am particularly fond of how Montparnasse is characterised here as being perhaps a little enamoured with Éponine.

He might be playing it cool at first, but his sweet smile, longing glances and general focus on Éponine betray him later in the scene. He practically looks love-struck!

It’s extremely interesting to me to examine how different adaptations represent Éponine and Montparnasse’s dynamic, and this certainly is the softest Montparnasse portrayal that I have seen on screen to date!
