*clears throat* Hi everyone :) I have just found out about this community and I have joined. I am a fan of NDdP (especially the French version) since the end of 2010; I also love the Spanish version (from what I've seen on youtube) and I like Marakulin as Frollo in the Russian version. I have made some rhyming translations (into Russian of several ( Read more... )

Here's the performance

I missed it because I was at work, and I didn't know he was going to perform until la_fille_qui mentioned it in her LJ post. asdfasf why did I have to miss it! D:

As far as I know it's the only adaptation that shows Frollo kissing Esme, not only at the Phoebus-stabbing scene but also ( Read more... )

Can I just say how much wicked_seraph and I love you all? Seriously, thank you for keeping the community active and alive! ♥ I think jackks is on to something - I don't think I've ever seen such an active community for Notre Dame de Paris. Again, you guys totally take all the credit for that.

Guys, you do realise that we likely win the trophy, medal and wooden spoon for being the most active English language Notre-Dame group on the net?

Anywho, have some Marakulin videos to make your Monday that little bit less dreary.  They're bootlegs, but close up, and pretty good image/audio quality, if somewhat wobbly.  The mini clip of his audition ( Read more... )
