Les Misérables is a story of early 19th century in France. The story revolves around a man named as Jean Valjean, who was imprisoned for 20 years for stealing a loaf of bread.

Jean's role is being played by Hugh Jackman, who had stolen the loaf of bread to save her child sister from starvation. The time does not get better upon his release from the jail and he carries that baggage of being culprit on his back.

It gets difficult for him to move out of poverty, but then things get changed when he meets a priest, whose role has been played by Colm Wilkinson. He helps him overcome his ill fate and helps him to start a new life. Colm helps him get a new name and life and things start getting positive for Jean.

He becomes a successful factory owner and later gets appointed as mayor of a town. Jean is then joined by his prison guard Javert, whose role has been played by Russell Crowe. Crowe's presence leads to a number of things.

Director Tom Hooper has done a good job. He has made sure that each and everything derives a single tone whether visually or tonally.
