The only thing I ask is to refrain from crying just by the mere mention of these tragic scenes. Many of you will be able to predict the list, but I’ll go one step further and try to explain the pools under our feet after watching this movie.

I previously said I had cried only four times and while that remains true, one of the scenes on this list deserves its spot due to how emotionally driven it was. The following are five of the many scenes that struck a chord in my newfound heart. Fantine (Uma Thurman) a factory worker is fired because. Inspector Javert (Geoffrey Rush) recognises him and tries to reveal who he is. Valjean changed and became the mayor after 9 years. He is hardened till he met a Bishop to stay for a night. All I could do was continue marveling at the beauty of the movie while laughing at myself for breaking down. Jean Valjean (Liam Neeson) is released after 19 years in a quarry for stealing bread.

How could this happen? I looked around trying to cover the waterfalls coming from my eyes and was blinded by the glisten of tears from everyone else’s faces as well. Not only did I cry, I cried four times, which was completely unfathomable to me before I sat down for this treacherous movie. And the pain of suddenly having feelings was all too much for me to handle.
