One of Richard Jordan's best performances. He put his all into this role. He really knows how to get to the heart of you. Especially the prison scenes, those are very dramatic and you can see how Valjean suffered just by watching Jordan. He brought this character to life. Anthony Perkins is also does a great job portraying Javert, cold and grim. This is definitely the best version.
