I haven't gotten to Marius' lonesome childhood yet, so since that's not really emphasised in the musical I didn't know it was a thing! Actually I feel like I have a very poor handle on Marius in general since the musical is really only interested in him for the romance angle. I'll be interested to seem ore of him! Also yes Cosette should have LOTS of severe emotional problems, GOSH. Although she's probably helped by the fact that her earliest formative years WERE full of love and good parenting from Fantine, because that makes a difference.
YES THE PEOPLE WHO MADE IT CLEARLY READ AND LOVED THE BOOK, it is the best! The further I get into the book the more I'm like OH SO THAT'S WHERE THE MOVIE PEOPLE GOT XYZ FROM!
And yes, I have discovered that I did indeed grow up with Michael Ball. (I had to do some sleuthing to figure out, because my recording was a Definitely Not Bootlegged From My Best Friend set of burned dics.) Idk, I think I'd have to go back and relisten to Heart Full of Love. It's possible I'm a little hard on him; he does do quite a lot pretty well. He just doesn't make me particularly like him at all.
