1.0 out of 5 stars
DVD is missing 30 minutes,
By C. S. Junker "soul_survivor" (Burien, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Les Miserables (DVD)
This 1978 British television production is one of the better English-language adapatations of Les Miserables. Unfortunately, the DVD release is missing 30 minutes of footage. Originally shown in two parts at a length of 150 minutes, the DVD edit has been chopped down to 120. (The VHS tape edition plays complete.)Had I known this disc was an incomplete version I would not have purchased it. If you want to see the complete film --- and it's well worth it --- you'll need to buy the VHS tape. Quel dommage! (What a shame!)

Better than the Remake,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Les Miserables (DVD)
A classic tale performed by classic actors. Richard Jordan is the perfect Jean Valjean, and Anthony Perkins of Psycho fame brings the rigid ethics of Inspector Javert to a scary reality. So happpy to see the 1978 film brought out in DVD format. Though the 1998 remake with Liam Neeson is well done, it cannot touch the original with the obsessiveness of Perkins.

This "Les Mis" is "Les Bomb",
By A Huge Fan (Gordon County, GA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Les Miserables (VHS Tape)
I had never been interested in the story of Les Mis until I saw this film in one of my classes. I was captivated! No doubt, the special effects (few and far between) aren't especially top-notch, but I loved it still. The movie tells the story of a poor thief turned rich mayor and war-time hero! Amazing! I read the book some time after and enjoyed it just as much. In fact, I hummed the tune of the musical score the entire time I read it, and I'm only a teenager!!!
