New TV Spot: Les Miserables

Universal Pictures has put out a new TV spot for the upcoming musical Les Misérables starring Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Hugh Jackman, and Amanda Seyfried. Directed by Tom Hooper (The King’s Speech), the romantic tale is hoping to be this holiday season’s must-see movie event when it opens on Christmas Day.
 
The Plot:
 
Set against the backdrop of 19th-century France, Les Misérables tells an enthralling story of broken dreams and unrequited love, passion, sacrifice and redemption—a timeless testament to the survival of the human spirit. Jackman plays ex-prisoner Jean Valjean, hunted for decades by the ruthless policeman Javert (Crowe) after he breaks parole. When Valjean agrees to care for factory worker Fantine’s (Hathaway) young daughter, Cosette, their lives change forever.
