Lol at this:

Russell Crowe, I don't even know what to say to you. Really, it sounds like you just took a bite of pancakes. Please stop eating your words.

(for the record I loved the movie and didn't really mind Crowe once I got used to his voice)

Oh my God I love Jezebel. This is amazing.

"Even though she's an angel, she still has to have the ****ty, choppy haircut that she died with. Nice one, God. "

I had that same thought, why couldn't they have filmed the scene when she had her long hair? Or given her a wig?

My favorite part of the post because I felt the same way.

I'm saddened by all of the adult Cosette hate in the comments.

"These whores are working it."

This sums up so many people. I mean, things.

I believe that they kept the short haircut because that's the image of Fantine that Valjean had most prevalent in his mind. He saw her only briefly with long hair, and even then she had it covered. When the two interacted meaningfully, she had short hair. Since Fantine isn't literally appearing as an angel, but is Valjean's projection, it makes sense that she'd look in death to him the way she looked in life. Personally, I like it.

It's like the way in the play too.

The play? Really? Because last I checked it was a musical.

I really didn't know which of the many (MANY) Les Miz threads to post this in, so I figured I'd go with the humorous one.
