I FEEL LIKE I'VE RUINED MY ROSE DRAWING.

Spent the bulk of today at my grandma's place trying to first DIY my shoes (I pussyed out in the end because if I mess up this pair, I'D HAVE NOTHING COMFORTABLE LEFT) and then tried water coloring (did not work out too well) then painting my nails (THEY LOOK FABULOUS) then finally watching Les Miserables.

And it was so. painstakingly. draggy.

I felt like the show went dull after Anne Hathaway died. It revived a little while when they highlighted the Innkeeper's tale and it was good all the way home  at the schoolmen' revolution and fall. All in all, it was far too draggy and could've had a lot of scenes sliced if they wanted this film to have a heavier impact on its viewers.

I have always fucking loved Tim Burton's work, which automatically meant I'm a fan of Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter, and when she came onto the screen I RECOGNIZED HER AND WENT EEEEK and I decided the show has came back to life.

I loved the Innkeeper's tale, everything about it. The filth, the scum, the merry misery. I loved a single scene of all the schoolmen cleaning the insides of their rifles and loading it. It was a scene that had immense symbolism for me.

Peace cannot be without war.

And I fucking loved all the songs.

Especially "look down" and "do you hear the people sing". It reminded me of watching prince of egypt and sweeney todd. Such a brilliant score, such a brilliant backset choir, such brilliance.

Draggy, but definitely a must watch.
