I've never seen a musical film so tight lipped about which orchestration will be utilized. And they've been so far successful at preventing any leaks.

I, as well as anyone else who cares about orchestration, are dying over here. I will be freaked out if they decide to use the current anniversary dreck which is not only dramatically reduced and thin but lacks passion and is terribly cliche.

We'll see.

---

I would assume they use something close to the 25th Anniversary Orchestrations, since those are the newest and grandest ones.

---

I haven't heard all the recordings, but they are my favorite of the ones I have heard.

---

Cool set, but definitely Master of the House of Slytherin.

I don't know if this has been posted (I did a quick check two pages back and didn't see anything), but here's a snippet of Hathaway's rendition of "I Dreamed a Dream." I like it. The rawness in her voice gives it a heartbreaking feel. Also, I guess Cosette is a blonde. Someone posted a pic a page or so back and she looked like a brunette, but here Young Cosette and Amanda Siefried are clearly blonde.

what website did you film it on cos ive typed 'anne hathaway cinemacon' on google and i can't seem to find it?

I swore I wouldn't peak at spoilers but I can'r resist!! Would you be able to successfully avoid your kid's wedding, graduation, anniversary, first born, NO! LOL.

I'm exaggerating, obviously, but let me just say that I am beyond grateful, pleased, and excited after having seen that teaser trailer. Last night I saw the video of Jackman on the indoor film set and I *died* many times over.

In a good way!

I am not exaggerating this time when I say that film set is EXACTLY how I envisioned a film set for this musical should look like. I know it isn't the entire set and probably makes a few, several second on-screen appearances but I LOVE that one for essentially being a shout out to John Napier's original set design, which heavily featured the aesthetic seen in that film set.

"I Dreamed a Dream" sounds wonderful and that teeny snippet is indeed using mostly John's work. I did not hear any cheesy Susan Boyle horns or frilly woodwinds in moments when Fantine is singing of how she's up sh*t creek without a paddle, so there is within me, a new found hope that Cameron still has *snapped out of it* and has come to his senses.

No problem at all with the placement of "I Dreamed a Dream" in this film. I see no reason for why it HAS to be where it traditionally is. Nothing is hurt by moving it. It's a harmless change that could end up proving beneficial. As long as it's effective. My only question is does this mean Fantine's arrest will also be moved?

---

I'm thinking they didn't move the song, they only moved the part where Fantine sells her hair so it happens before or during IDAD (with the song playing over the scenes of her getting her hair cut). Anne doesn't look at all like a whore in the brief clips of her singing so it doesn't appear LL has happened yet. Then when they do LL they'll just drop the part where she sells her hair because that's already happened.

From what I heard, is that she is singing it as she gets her haircut.
