erastesI look like a PIZZA. Psoriasis is NOT fun. Not Recommended and I never want this again. I shall be bathing in gallons of coal tar soap from here on in. And it HURTS. And did I mention the pizza look? Any tips from anyone to help with the pain and the big red splotches? And the spreading?
I got "Les Miserables" through ilovefilm yesterday (our version of Netflix) and my first reaction was "WTF?" This was basically because I've got all the Angel series on "high priority" and everything else on low, so why they sent me stuff out of order. Secondly I couldnt remember ordering the musical, as I know I'd hate it - so it was with some relief that I found it wasn't the musical at all, thank gawd, but the Liam Neeson/Geoffrey Rush version.
I enjoyed it - but I think I have to admit that really, Les Miz is unfilmable. There's so much there, behind the dialogue that anyone who hadn't really read the book could never possibly get the depth of Valjean and Javert. Although both men (of course) did a sterling job of their parts, even at the end, I wasn't as convinced by Javert's final decision as ever I was in the book. The book seemed inevitable-the film did not.
