I think I will wait to see it once everyone on the board has had a chance to tell me what to think and how to feel, but I KNOW I will miss Susan Boyle. Is it true it was her manager was holding out for more money and so they had to go with Hathaway?
That's not true, actually. They begged her to do it but she said she would only if they let her have all of her cats in it with her and they said no.

Sort of. She asked if one of her cats (Blackie, the "best" one, she calls it) could sing it.

Susan Boyle would only agree to the role if she could sing it as a duet with Elaine Paige. So they rewrote the script that Paige would be the cleaning woman who comes in after Fantine has sex. Paige would start by comforting Boyle "There was a time when men were kind..."
But Patti LuPone heard that Paige was going to sing one of "her" songs and filed a lawsuit. So they had an intern tell Susan Boyle that she wouldn't be appearing in the Les Miz Movie.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
There's nothing remotely humorous in anything you just wrote.

I haven't seen it yet, and being in New York this weekend, everyone was talking about it. I've heard a lot of people talk about not really liking it because they are so in love with the stage show. I'm wondering what I will think about it, as I have never seen a stage production before, and cannot make it through one of the concert versions because I can't follow the story. I love like the music though...
