Something I Have Always Found Really Weird Is When English Texts Italicize Words From Other Languages.

Kroj z Podještědí.

Není zrovna šťastná, že na ni hledíte.

I started using Head and Shoulders ten years ago for itchy scalp and dandruff, and then for ten years I have not had itchy scalp and dandruff, so I thought “why do I still buy shampoo to combat itchy scalp and dandruff when I do not have itchy scalp and dandruff,” so I stopped buying the shampoo for itchy scalp and dandruff and can you guess I have now? Can you predict what currently afflicts me? It’s alright if you can’t because apparently I fuckin couldn’t either

Thinking about how succinctly LM 1972 was able to convey the Montparnasse and Éponine dynamic. First by simply having her use a less formal greeting for him than she does for the other gang members, the way she does in the Brick.

Then, check out her reaction when he pulls the knife on her. There’s this fleeting expression of surprise, fear, and dare I say hurt? Before she switches back to that bravery and tells him he doesn’t scare her. But that brief moment, it’s SO GOOD—with just a fleeting facial expression we get such a clear suggestion of their history.

And then THIS MOMENT. The way he looks back at her is so chilling and threatening. Especially because when they’re making the decision to leave, he looks so angry with her—dude’s jaw is so tense. So then when he looks back like this it is incredibly menacing.

And then the way she lets herself fall apart afterwards really solidifies the danger and the menace of what we just saw.

Like future adaptations please take note—you can give us a sense of the connections between various characters that are present in the Brick without taking up very much time at all.

Les Miserables Timeline (absurdly detailed)

To save myself time looking stuff up. Includes characters’ birthdates, and Tome-Book-Chapter references where applicable. I may make a separate hour-by-hour barricade timeline at some point. Corrections and additions are most welcome.
