Les Miserables-10th anniversary DVD
It's a wonderful performance with a superb cast. All of the "extras" like the interviews and the international finale make it even more interesting and entertaining. I highly recommend it.

I didn't want to reiterate what are basically accurate reviews already here, but I just got off the phone with Warner Home video.
I'm on my second DVD after having contacted Warner (referred to them by BBC America) about the missing bits on the DVD as mentioned by others. Let's be clear: the omission is obvious. We're not talking a decision to take a distinct section out, it's a segment from the middle of a song that's missing. I had contacted them earlier this year and, after months of back and forth, received a replacement that I was assured fixed the problem.
It did not.
After finally being able to watch the DVD, I saw that the exact same errors were present (Gavroche and "Little People," etc.). In addition. I found another problem I didn't see in my quick glance through the reviews here.

The original release of the concert was on a double-sided, double layer DVD, with Act 1 on one side, Act 2 on the second. This DVD is on a single-sided DVD. How did they do this? By atrociously high video compression. There are a lot of blacks in the concert as a result of it being performed on a stage with a darkened background. The posterization effect that results from the high compression (where the shading changes are abrupt rather than gradual) are quite glaring and distracting.

Anyway, I've contacted Warner again; their initial response was "that's how it is," which is just silly.

It's a shame; I love Les Miserables, and this is truly a great version--the only way it could have been better would have been if it had been a complete version of the play.

But I'd loaned out my original DVD (the previous release) to someone who made off with it; I think it's better enough (compared to this one) that I'm going to order a replacement, despite the quite high cost.

This is an inpiring and wonderful dream cast edition of the musical play. The finale is phenomional with stars from many different nations singing in their native language! Don't miss it!

There is a few glitches in the DVD but I am not going to pay to send it back when it should have come to me in perfect, new condition. I was not very happy about it.

If you loved the play you will love this video! All the wonderful music and you can choose to put the words on the screen to sing along!
