The screen adaptation of Broadway smash Les Miserables has its first trailer, wherein but one cast member–Anne Hathaway as prostitute Fantine–is heard to sing. She’s a little squeaky on the high notes, but we’re reserving judgment! A lot of slightly askew camera angles here thanks to unique stylist Tom Hooper, whose last film, The King’s Speech, was a big winner at the Oscars. With a cast including Hugh Jackman (as Valjean) and Russell Crowe (as Javert), Mr. Hooper must be hoping lightning will strike twice.
