Mainland filmgoers who are still reflecting on the medley of songs from the 2012 film adaptation of Les Miserables starring Anne Hathaway (pictured) and Hugh Jackman can now appreciate the epic in theaters. Universal Pictures' musical drama, which has just won three Academy Awards, including Best Supporting Actress for Hathaway, premiered in the mainland on Thursday. Every year the Academy Award-winning films draw intense public attention in China, but due to paperwork and procedures for imported films, few of them get a quick release in theaters. The film, in English with Chinese subtitles, will also be available on DMAX, China's own giant screens, in select theaters.
