Grégory Gadebois is Jean Valjean: trailer
A new vision of Victor Hugo’s miserables, signed Éric Besnard, who recounts the redemption of a convict.
Two hundred years and dozens of adaptations later, The miserable continue to fascinate.
This time, it’s Éric Besnard – Director of Louise Violet – who seizes the monumental work of Victor Hugo To deliver an intimate and refined reading of the myth, centered on the redemption of a man crushed by fate. If we judge by the trailer, history will be more interested in Jean Valjeanwhich becomes the title, on his return from the prison. Or how the kindness he found on his way will lead him to save Cosette afterwards.
The story therefore took place in 1815. Grégory Gadebois embodies a Jean Valjean disillusioned, “marked in iron by shame and rejection. Wandering like a shadow, he crosses the road to a church man (Bernard Campan), of his sister (Isabelle Carré) and their servant (Alexandra Lamy). In this fragile closed -door, a tense hand will upset the course of his life. A moment suspended, a night when everything can switch: hatred or redemption. “
With Gadebois in Valemassive and vulnerable, Besnard Promises a human adaptation, rid of the great spectacle to focus on pain, doubt and hope.
