I am succeeding in making my siblings well read and opinionated people, At least the younger ones, there isn't much hope for the older ones. We were watching the 1998 version of Les Miserables the other day, it's possibly the worst book to movie adaptation I have seen, and if Hans Matheson wasn't such a cute lost puppy, I wouldn't have bothered watching it to the end, which made me want to punch a baby. Who's idea was it to end it like that? but it sparked my little sisters interest.I got her the abridged version and she finished it. She was talking to me this morning and she managed to really baffle me with the question "Who do you think would win? Enjolras or Grantaire. " She then proceeded to talk about how Grantaire was a bad ass and could totally take on Enjolras. Which really doesn't make sense to me. Grantaire: skeptic, unbeliever, and drunk who has a bit of a man crush on Enjolras Vs. Enjolras: Passionate, leader of a group of revolutionaries who has one of the best death scenes ever done on stage and has a pretty pimpin' vest. I don't dislike Grantaire, but come on. Bad ass is not a phrase i'd use to describe him. His death in the book could possibly be, but in general no. And if you are talking about death scenes like i said before Enjolras just takes the cake. Dying on top of the flag, it has brought me to tears when he's played right. So to stop my rambling Enjolras wins.
