Trivia

Several actors went through transformations upon receiving their roles. Anne Hathaway lost 25 pounds in total for her portrayal of Fantine, while Hugh Jackman lost 30 pounds in order to play Valjean as a prisoner. See more »

Goofs

Factual errors: In the opening scene, the prisoners are seen towing a damaged ship into an empty drydock using ropes. Drydocks are flooded to the top when ships are entering and leaving, then the entrance is closed with a caisson and the water pumped out. The dock should have been full of water and the prisoners lined up on either side of the upper level. See more »
