On the subject of repeating melodies, this is probably my favorite mirroring:

Link to source? That's one of my favorite mirrors too and with my favorite Valjean/Javert singer combo.

Maybe it's the inner 10th anniversary fangirl in me talking, but I hated that Norm Lewis sang Javert's Suicide while smiling? He's supposed to be coming to the realization that he's the bad guy, I cannot understand why he looks like he's so triumphant, when imo, the song is pure despair. I liked Phil Quast's rendition a lot better, though I loved Norm's voice too.

... It was full of despair. That's why he's smiling. His Suicide was Javert struggling with hysteria and empty defiance, before crumpling. The suicide itself has a touch of triumph because it's the one option he has that satisfies both morality and honour, so in a way it's the one option that lets him keep something of himself. Just a touch of triumph, in the midst of despair.

I love Quast's version too, but they were two very different Javerts. Quast's Javert had a much slower-dawning realisation over the course of the song, and he didn't fight it. Lewis', on the other hand, fought the realisation tooth and nail, until he couldn't anymore. Just a difference of approach, is all. Both fit the character.

Definitely my favourite bit. Also "Yet why did I allow that man / to touch my soul and teach me love" vs. "Yet why did allow that man / to hold dominion over me".

It's a beautiful analysis of the characters and I found it infuriating that they changed the melody in the film.
