Dear Friends
A
kind reader posted this comment on the RRP file yesterday:
In
the afternoon I went to watch "Les Miserables" the movie.
I have seen the play 3 times in 3 different countries but had been indifferent
to it. But the movie was so different, it sent a message of Christianity, that
God is Love and that we should forgive others who hurt us, not once but
"seventy-seven" times.
c.f.
these words from NCR's review
'Les
Misérables' a fusion of heaven and earth, sight and sound:
"Les
Misérables" is moving and inspiring. It is a prayer, the Gospels brought
to life; it is the Creed and sacraments lived. Mercy and truth meet. The
screenplay by William Nicholson is faithful to the story (as told and developed
by at least five others); it is deeply Christian and points to a world that can
be if we so choose. It is a heartbreaking, deeply felt tale of human anguish,
brought about by other humans, rising from the earth to God, seeking the justice
of love.
DV while I'm in Australia during the coming four weeks I'll have a chance to see "L.M"....and may you also soon see it
