Late night Les Misérables singing. Obviously I’m really good at remembering lyrics.

Can you see the stars where you live? In Sydney we can see some, but we can see a lot more in my home town. People who live in places where they can’t really see the stars are surprised when they see the night sky here in my home town. It’s very beautiful.
I had to explain that sometimes really good movies don’t win, especially if there are lots of other good movies nominated too, and at least Anne Hathaway won Best Supporting Actress. Les Miserables also won Best Sound Mixing and some Makeup and Hair one…. haha. Would have been nice if Hugh Jackman had won though, especially as he is Australian.
Did you see the Les Miserables Medley that the cast performed? HERE. Amazing.
This is his obsession at the moment. Yesterday he spent hours singing along. I don’t mean casually singing along for fun, I mean seriously trying to remember all the words and hit all the notes. He is not a bad singer, but he does it with earphones in so all I’m hearing is his voice, so it can be kinda funny. But yeah…. he is a much better singer than me actually.
As you know, I usually don’t do a comic on Sundays, but since the fan base is growing I thought I might try to have something uploaded every single day. I make about 6 comics a week, what’s one more? Haha.
I cried too but I knew I was going to cry! I’m not exaggerating either, he was still sitting there sobbing as everyone else left the cinema. His emotional reaction to things is one of the things I love about him though.
He also understood a bit about the time period of Les Miserables because he knows about Australian history and all the convicts sent here for doing something as little as stealing some bread. So that made it even sadder for him because he knew the unfair punishment for such minor crimes and that so many people had a terrible life simply because they were unlucky enough to be born into poverty.
He is not ashamed of bawling his eyes out either and I’m glad he doesn’t hide his emotions. Being able to talk about how the film moved him led to conversations about history, which I always love to talk about.
