Aaron Tveit calmly filming, locking his phone, and putting it into his pocket and then stepping up to sing with all the confidence of the world is so freaking sexy I can't
I have a soft spot for Russell in this movie. He must’ve been so nervous singing with such well trained singers and yet he put in as much effort as he possible could have and was lovely and confident despite the criticism he received.
To this day, when I hear Anne Hathaway sing I dreamed a dream, i CRY at the “i had a dream my life would be, so different from this hell I’m living” - her emotions in the song 😭😭 and THIS ROOM OF ACTORS IS JUST AMAZING!!!
Absolutely! Everytime I watch this video (and I have watched it very often), I kind of wait for that situation. I'm so impressed of his "coolness". He stays so calm - switching off his phone so slowely, puttin it in his pocket so calm - as though he had all time of the world. And than, he is completely in his character a glimpse of a second later. That's what I call being professional and cool!
@@aairosatherys3636 Only if you give the stolen time back. You can steal time within a phrase but you can't get ahead of the next 'block' so to speak. Finishing a verse one or two phrases early is just confusing to listen to.
Poor Russell crowe, a film like this can't be easy to do when you aren't musically trained, people say he's a mess in this video but I respect the guy for trying!
He was in a band and definitely had some musical training, which imo made it more difficult for him because the music he’s used to performing is just so different from musical numbers. It’s much easier to train from ground up if you’re a blank sheet but harder to change your singing style and habits built throughout the years. Which is why Nick Jonas, despite being a super successful singer, was by far the worst part in les mis 25th anniversary
I love how everyone looks so casual, like they have coffee and tea, they're taking pictures, taking videos, and then there's Russel Crowe and he just looks like he is trying so hard. It's so funny.
Brenden Samsel i always thought he seemed to be in character here while everyone else is so chill and carefree. Sasha filming in the background always kills me 😂
Yeah the conductor had to really thump hard for him to stay on the beat. To be fair, though, this song seems confusing as fuck to sing and he has no one/nothing else to lean on for his part haha (not sure if that makes any sense)
...merely the way he positions himself before the whole crew, as if was going to see what results they (not him) have yielded from the rehearsals :D :D :)

You can’t compare a trained professional broadway singer to a film actor singing. A world of difference. Give people props for doing the best they can because you’re doing the apples/ oranges thing!
I remember hearing something like Russell Crowe wasn’t really a trained singer when he became part of Les Mis and it just warmed my heart to see him practicing with these others. Everyone else is kind of effortlessly doing their parts and then it gets to his and he is obviously focusing so hard, trying to stay on time (for what is admittedly a pretty tricky sounding part if you ask me! But I’m an amateur so take that with a grain of salt). I think I just find it so heartwarming because I know what it’s like to feel like I’m surrounded by people who are better trained at something than me, and it felt like a moment of identification - like he’s a real human too. ❤️ And I’ve been in musical theatre or choir rehearsals where there’s just that one person who is having a heckuva time with their part - sometimes me, sometimes someone else. I see you Russell!!
@@mckenzietrudgeon9288 that's so cool! I didn't know that when I wrote that. Totally different styles, especially without training! And it almost warms my heart even more to see him in this video. :) I really liked him as Javert.
Normally I’d agree but my love for this musical and its beautiful legacy is far greater than my desire to root for Russell Crowe’s underdog story. I’m still upset that he took this role from so many incredibly talented actors who could have brought this character and voice to life far better than him, etching their own moving vocal rendition into movie musical canon. But it’s too late. This was it. Don’t get me wrong, his dramatic acting was on point but when he opens his mouth to sing his voice is thick and untrained. Now there is no other chance for another cinematic version of this story. No future performance or cast. That version of “Stars” will be the only version to live in movie history and it breaks my heart.
Nah, Russel Crowe has been in multiple professional musical theater productions in Australia before he hit it big in Hollywood. He was singing in those, so he definitely has experience and training. He also sung in a rock band. Amanda is the only with no professional musical theater (or even high school theater) experience and it shows. She only did 2 years of private classical training as a teen.
I love how Aaaron just casually playing with his phone and then suddenly when it’s his part he storms through like he’s been listening from the beginning
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how powerful and amazing Samantha Banks voice is!! Her character might not get the man but she don't need no man with that voice
Samantha is a professional opera singer. That is why. She was in the 25th anniversary of les miserable. Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe are awful at singing.
@@coffeeandhorses7991 From what I know, Samantha is a Broadway singer. That's different from an opera singer 😅 All of them (with the exception of Crowe) have been trained. Seyfried was a trained classical singer since teen but quit because she wanted to focus on acting so she's rusty. Helena has also train and had been on several musicals. Anne has great vocal techniques and trained with vocal coaches altho not as often. Hugh is also classically trained and have been on Broadway. Eddie came from a stage school where he took up acting and singing, making him the least experienced singer. Lastly, Aaron used to be a classically trained singer before he was an actor. Edit: Not hating on you btw, I'm just explaining. Crowe shouldn't be hated on for his singing because he was not trained in classical/broadway/opera. Hugh Jackman, while he was more into acting here than singing it, but if you look into his other musicals, he is in fact, great there. 😊
At least I’m not the only one who got this as a random recommendation today. You can really tell the differences is singing ability levels in this. LOL
amanda and samanthas voices contrast so well. amanda has such a soft voice and samanthas is so powerful. so much talent in one room! and Helena never fails to make me laugh
that so many famous people in one room, that first panoramic shot is so funny. you got russel crowe chilling, helena bonham carter and sacha baron cohen reviewing the paper they had, anne hathaway and hugh jackman chatting with a coffee, aaron, eddie and samantha barks taking a selfie, amanda is taking a picture of someone... imagine delivering a pizza to them and they open the door and all these iconic people are shoved in that tiny room
But what if, Anne Hathaway plays Max Caulfield in Life is Strange and she sings: I dreamed a dream in times gone by When hope was high and life worth living Now I have to choose to let Chloe die To save Arcadia Bay, bye Then the masterpiece becomes even better than Les Miserables
Right ? I love the majority of these ppl but like, jesus christ. Give some people who actually slave themselves away to musicals a chance rather than a ton of already known names.
Feels great to not be a musical snob and actually enjoy the film and the songs. Everyone’s complaining and I’m coming back to this video every couple months cuz I think it’s amazing
All the other actors would have been like, wow, these clothes are sooo cool, and Helena Bonham-Carter was probs just like, yeah, but I usually wear clothing similar to this, if maybe slightlyore modern
Love watching Bellatrix LeStrange, Borat, Karen Smith, wolverine, Newt Scamander, Princess Mia Thermapolis, Natalka and Mike Warren singing together in a room from Les Misèrable
Guess what I’m with you sis but just get good. I’m doing that. You will never regret learning to silence a room with a beautiful melody your own body is making.
I m pritty sure that Hugh would "drown" first if ask to sing "stars", but on the other hand he is the best actor since now playing Valjean ; ( Liam also played well but it was a different script wich i did not like so much) About Fantine i had a different vision: when she is lying in the bed sick and dishonored, she should picture herself ( in her mind, like she imaging seeing Cosette when she's dying), young and healthy, singing "i dreamed a dream" ( powerfully, as it should)
hearing samantha so clear and loud when they all sing their own parts at the same time made me so happy lol eponines one day more part always stuck out and I was glad I could hear it
I like how at 2:21 Aaron just calmly switches off his phone and joins in as if he's been doing this for every day of his life 😁. Also, what wouldn't i give to be in that room! Chills, literal chills!
The fact that Samantha was told to tone it down in this movie hurts me inside. She’s so good, and by far the best voice here. I recommend watching the Les Mis 25th Anniversary Concert, she sounds phenomenal there, and the rest of the cast is much better than the movies cast (IMO)
You know lol all these years later and I still can’t get over the strange fact that Aaron Tveit and Samantha Barks filmed an entire movie together and neither them or their characters ever said one word to each other on camera 😂 like this is the only moment in ALL Les MIs movie we see them “interact” on camera

You can tell right away that Aaron and Samantha are professionals when it comes to singing. Samantha has a great body posture when singing
For not-professionals, Hugh and Eddie and Amanda are pretty freaking amazing.
Aaron just recording everyone and then casually putting his phone away right before he sings is perfect
ITS MY FAVORITE
I love how Amanda is just casually singing soprano in one of the greatest musicals of all time with coffee in tshirt
Most likely was hot tea to soothe her vocal cords actually, we used to drink before a choir show.
she be looking like a goddess of beauty without even trying
I live for Aaron Tveit casually pocketing his phone SECONDS before his lines and then just absolutely slaying his part ❤️
He’s amazing
Samantha Barks rocks the entire room. She's superb.
Also has great lighting, too.
aaron filming everyone else then automatically going into character wow we really have no other choice but to stan
Aaron kills it every single time. First next to normal, then this
Aaron Tveit is such an underrated actor. I'm so sad he hasn't broken into the top tier yet. He nails every single role.

freaking same!!
Love watching Bellatrix LeStrange, Borat, Karen Smith, wolverine, Newt Scamander, Princess Mia Thermapolis, Natalka and Mike Warren singing together in a room from Les Misèrable
And Helena and Anne are red and white queen in Alice in wonderland
Same
Aaron and Samantha showing everyone up is giving me life.
Was literally about to comment this! Both of them phenomenal west end performers
How Helena tries to indicate the tempo for Russell at 2:50 and then quickly gives up 😅
imagine how it felt for all of these a list actors being completely overshadowed by the presence of samantha barks and aaron tveit lol
Why do you say they were overshadoweded, especially with anne hathaway there?
@@leif1075 have you watched the performance? lol
To be fair Huge Jacked Man was the only Tony winner in the cast at the time
The way he was recording and went, right so guys yeah I’m just gonna step up and nail this, you guys cool with that?
Hugh Jackman literally is the star. I love Tveit though. Hollywood crush 100%
I wanna be a good singer like that if there is a next life
Start now! Never too late!
Geez, shoot a little higher, these people are NOT considered good by musicians
Guess what I’m with you sis but just get good. I’m doing that. You will never regret learning to silence a room with a beautiful melody your own body is making.
@@fredrickkenley674 why not? they sound good
I m pritty sure that Hugh would "drown" first if ask to sing "stars", but on the other hand he is the best actor since now playing Valjean ;
( Liam also played well but it was a different script wich i did not like so much)
About Fantine i had a different vision: when she is lying in the bed sick and dishonored, she should picture herself ( in her mind, like she imaging seeing Cosette when she's dying), young and healthy, singing "i dreamed a dream" ( powerfully, as it should)
hearing samantha so clear and loud when they all sing their own parts at the same time made me so happy lol eponines one day more part always stuck out and I was glad I could hear it
It is immediately obvious which actor actually works on Broadway regularly!
Russel Crowe vs the cast of Les mis in “the fight to keep the tempo of the song” 😂😂😂
I thought TH-cam was recommending me this because I’ve been watching the movie but then I see that all the comments are from hours ago lol
Olivia R sane here idk why
Yeah why am i here
I like how at 2:21 Aaron just calmly switches off his phone and joins in as if he's been doing this for every day of his life 😁.
Also, what wouldn't i give to be in that room! Chills, literal chills!
Love it! Edoras (how ever you spell it) was one of my favourites in the film
@@annashaw6538 *enjolras :)
While lots of the other people have amazing voices Aaron and Samantha absolutely WIPED THE FLOOR with the rest of the cast.
also hugh, professionally trained and fabulous haha
anne is amazing too
Anne and Amanda are both professionally trained too. So much talent in this room.
i think the most perfect is anne
You can hear the difference in Samantha's Broadway voice compared to the others. She is the Battleship! They are the row boats.
and yet I prefered Anne rendition, so much more emotional.
Anne is a stunning soprano!
Aaron Tveit started on Broadway. They all have great voices anyway.
Hugh Jackman also started on Broadway. In fact, nearly half of all actors where on Broadway before.
Love how Aaron is just casually filming everyone sing until Enjolras' part comes up and just KILLS IT.
2019. Who's still watching?
He's the Supernova mee duhh
I lost it when Anne Hathaway sang. Gives me chills. Makes me cry.
You can definitely tell which ones are on Broadway
The fact that Samantha was told to tone it down in this movie hurts me inside. She’s so good, and by far the best voice here. I recommend watching the Les Mis 25th Anniversary Concert, she sounds phenomenal there, and the rest of the cast is much better than the movies cast (IMO)
All those amazing vocals and then Nick Jonas
@@lucrawr69 Had great emotions during empty chairs but does not have the lung power for Broadway imho. But he is also a tiny dude.
Seeing Wolverine, Bellatrix Lestrange, Andy Sachs and Karen Smith singing Broadway in the same room feels so surreal to me.
The MVP in the room for me is Borat Sagdiyev
and Sophie Sheridon 😍
And newt scamander
and princess amelia
@@ameliaschaefer1781 he said Andy Sachs which is another character played by Anne.
January 2021 anyone? Maybe we should start our own musical.
Yes
I’m in 🎼🎬
I’m 1000% in
Hereeee
Good idea 👍
You know lol all these years later and I still can’t get over the strange fact that Aaron Tveit and Samantha Barks filmed an entire movie together and neither them or their characters ever said one word to each other on camera 😂 like this is the only moment in ALL Les MIs movie we see them “interact” on camera
Anyone here from Sideways’ video reminding everyone the movie didn’t do these actors’ singing voices justice
That'd be me!
Yeah, me too
Yep
Me!
Russell Crowe: working so hard to get the rhythm right
HBC & SBC in the background: messing around while still singing their parts perfectly
2:23 love how he casually puts away his phone and starts singing
Texting his gurl
I can’t even comprehend how difficult it must be to sing your own sections when others are singing theirs!
