Okay, you probably know the brilliant musical, probably know one of the film versions, but you must see this truly remarkable mini-series version, which goes much deeper into the Hugo text than earlier versions. The acting here is at the highest level led by Dominic West in yet another unforgettable role. Man, that guy just keeps delivering stellar work. Also is David Oyelowo as a great Javert. The cinematography, sets and authentic feel for 19th Century France are also impeccable. The ending seems a bit rushed as does the doesn't make sense final aging of Valjean but this small detail aside, Les Miserable is must watch television.
