So, the movie moved Anne Hathaway's song "I'm So Damn Sad, Dear God I'm Sad" from after she looses her job (which would make me sad) where it is in the stage musical, until...

SPOILERS ALERT

...after she becomes a bald toothless prostitute (which would make me sadder). Seems a solid dramatic choice.

Kinda weird that Ann would sing a song about being so darn sad in a story called Les Miserables. ;)

Honestly, that sounds like a better position for the song to me.

I just don't see the point in moving it. What for? As Cobb says so that it is superficially different from the stage play? That is silly.

Anyway, life was kind of falling apart for her and she was very, very, very sad before she had to sell her hair and herself into prostitution. That song was part of her transition to rock bottom, as you watch as things keep going downhill for her. Don't see why they felt she couldn't be so damn sad until after she had become a prostitute.

yeah, why fix what isn't broken? Need I remind you that the show was a huge hit with the song exactly where it was. I have seen anyone complain "they put 'I Dreamed A Dream' in the wrong spot! It should go after she becomes a prostitute. And why did that put 'Red And Black' and 'Angry Men' together like that? They should be separated!" It was fine where it was! Leave it alone!
