In the Les Misérables movie i felt that Sacha Baron Cohen AND Helena Bonham Carter played the parts of Thénardier and Madame Thénardier very well, it suited their styles of acting.
This is a different interpretation, intended for comic relief from all the sadness of the film. Sacha Baron Cohen is a comedian, and he lightens the mood excellently, which is what he wanted.
sacha is always such a delight to watch, one of my favorite character actors hands down. he absolutely NAILED this role, as did helena for hers! these two were cast perfectly, i think
i was like waiiiit sasha and helena mincing meat up and making pies eh... SWEENEYY! helena bonham cafter shouldve had like a lil throwback moment though
French version (The first few lines were cut): Thenardier: Enter monsieur, You hit the nail in the head, I am the best innkeeper in town. My competitors, all are smokers, Or pheasants who rip off the guests. Seldom do you see, Honest folk like me, Who are proud to serve The French hotel industry. Master Thenardier, quick to do freelance, Gender of the client and of the wallet, I unbutton them, with a saucy tale, The more I bottle-feed them they are bottle-fed, I hang out their troubles, It is a shame to pretend. But we have little skin for balls, So I charge them extra. Master of the House, coachman of the coach, It is my pleasure to empty their pockets, I serve a janglard, off of the anvil, And I stick their knicknacks into the feathers, For life we are friends and brothers, Of the blood and of the wine, I do whatever pleases them, Lord! And I skin them to their core. Customers: Master Thenardier, is a good Christian, Who spends all his time feeding his neighbor, Servant to the poor, butler to the great, Comforter, philosopher with all his heart, Everybody's companion, Dear and attentive friend, Thenardier: But lock up your valises Or else I will skin you tonight. I serve the leftovers, the old makes the new, The bucks that pass through my choppers are pure beef, Kidney of a horse, liver of a cat, Filling up the sausages with this and that. Residents on board are welcome, The suite is occupied year-round, At reasonable charges, plus some little extras on the side. I charge for the fleas, the mice, and cockroaches And for every second their shadow wears out the mirror, Before they leave, I charge them for, Every flea their dogs swallowed in the sector, When it comes to fixing prices, There are a lot of tricks I know. While they snuff, the price grows, and drives it through the roof! Customers: Master Thenardier, is a good Christian, Who spends all his time feeding his neighbor, Servant to the poor, butler to the great, Comforter, philosopher with all his heart, Everybody's companion, Dear and attentive friend, Thenardier: They are so gullible These fools break by thanking me. Mme. Thenardier: I used to pray that I would not have to grow old alone And there are times I wish I would rather kept these thoughts my own. Master Thenardier, isn't worth wasting, My young years and virtue as a young girl, Like all other men, he promises the moon, But when the girl comes, there is nobody there, He takes God for his father, Never does anything himself. When he does it, I swear, He makes it look like foie gras! All: Master Thenardier, Mme. Thenardier: Master lazy! All: Comforter, philosopher. Mme. Thenardier: I do all the work. All: Companion to the drunk, Friend without malice. Mme. Thenardier: Hypocrite, liar, and bigot! All: To the health of the innkeeper, And to the health of his spouse! Thenardier: Everybody raise a glass! Mme. Thenardier: Raise it up his ass! All: Everybody drink in good cheer To Master Thenardier!
Every time someone mentions the speaker of the house this song comes to mind I think there could be a parody done of This song and you wouldn’t have to change that much.
This is a 3 hour "show" with almost all singing. No one could possibly make out the lyrics. But after seeing this transcription, I can see why they don't super impose the lyrics above the stage like to do at many operas. Man is this bad.

GamingChasm Indeed....
The violin is insane in this!
I half expected Carter to start singing about her meat pies....
And Cohen to start talking about a miracle elixir. Made of piss.
@@codes114 Piss with ink!
Honestly
These have got to be the worst pies in London.
"Ohh Santa"! Love this version :D
Laura 2000 😂

TheRedViper100 However, in the book, the Thénardiers aren't funny at all. They are despicable...
@@justanotherbohemian3827 I hate them in the book and I love them in the movie and in the musical... :D
Ahhh wow I miss you too bkkmo
Helena Bonham Carter is so cool!

His Daughter was a beautiful woman
this is awsum! I love finding new helena on youtube thnx so much forthis song with added lyrics!
French version (The first few lines were cut):
Thenardier: Enter monsieur,
You hit the nail in the head,
I am the best innkeeper in town.
My competitors, all are smokers,
Or pheasants who rip off the guests.
Seldom do you see,
Honest folk like me,
Who are proud to serve
The French hotel industry.
Master Thenardier, quick to do freelance,
Gender of the client and of the wallet,
I unbutton them, with a saucy tale,
The more I bottle-feed them they are bottle-fed,
I hang out their troubles,
It is a shame to pretend.
But we have little skin for balls,
So I charge them extra.
Master of the House, coachman of the coach,
It is my pleasure to empty their pockets,
I serve a janglard, off of the anvil,
And I stick their knicknacks into the feathers,
For life we are friends and brothers,
Of the blood and of the wine,
I do whatever pleases them, Lord!
And I skin them to their core.
Customers: Master Thenardier, is a good Christian,
Who spends all his time feeding his neighbor,
Servant to the poor, butler to the great,
Comforter, philosopher with all his heart,
Everybody's companion,
Dear and attentive friend,
Thenardier: But lock up your valises
Or else I will skin you tonight.
I serve the leftovers, the old makes the new,
The bucks that pass through my choppers are pure beef,
Kidney of a horse, liver of a cat,
Filling up the sausages with this and that.
Residents on board are welcome,
The suite is occupied year-round,
At reasonable charges, plus some little extras on the side.
I charge for the fleas, the mice, and cockroaches
And for every second their shadow wears out the mirror,
Before they leave, I charge them for,
Every flea their dogs swallowed in the sector,
When it comes to fixing prices,
There are a lot of tricks I know.
While they snuff, the price grows, and drives it through the roof!
Customers: Master Thenardier, is a good Christian,
Who spends all his time feeding his neighbor,
Servant to the poor, butler to the great,
Comforter, philosopher with all his heart,
Everybody's companion,
Dear and attentive friend,
Thenardier: They are so gullible
These fools break by thanking me.
Mme. Thenardier: I used to pray that
I would not have to grow old alone
And there are times I wish
I would rather kept these thoughts my own.
Master Thenardier, isn't worth wasting,
My young years and virtue as a young girl,
Like all other men, he promises the moon,
But when the girl comes, there is nobody there,
He takes God for his father,
Never does anything himself.
When he does it, I swear,
He makes it look like foie gras!
All: Master Thenardier,
Mme. Thenardier: Master lazy!
All: Comforter, philosopher.
Mme. Thenardier: I do all the work.
All: Companion to the drunk,
Friend without malice.
Mme. Thenardier: Hypocrite, liar, and bigot!
All: To the health of the innkeeper,
And to the health of his spouse!
Thenardier: Everybody raise a glass!
Mme. Thenardier: Raise it up his ass!
All: Everybody drink in good cheer
To Master Thenardier!
Thanks for that - much appreciated!

I only watched the movie becouse of Helena. But hey i think its good

@@Ellieee1117 thanks bellatrix. Kek
OOH SANTA
I kind of want to do this for speech but I don't know
If you're still thinking about doing it I have it cut as a duo
Pipe down Chorus boy!
This is my concert song
Seinfeld Sent Here😄
the lady who sang killed Sirius D:
Eman166 Yes,Helena Bonham Carter
pastadog ... she has ben in alot more than harry potter.
And baked people into pies.
Also the queen of hearts
And the fairy godmother from Cinderella
So this is what Jack kept singing in class...
Every time someone mentions the speaker of the house this song comes to mind I think there could be a parody done of This song and you wouldn’t have to change that much.
We watched the movie in French class and she told us to look up the lyrics to this song
ahhhhhhh I loved it haha
Playing a British character while putting on a French accent (and pronouncing "r" incorrectly)
Paragon Josh why did they play British characters? The story was about the French republican party revolting, or did I get some facts wrong
They are French, what are yoi talking about...I mean does their name sound British to you?
They’re not playing British characters? The actors are British but they’re playing French characters...
You!! You where the one who killed Sirius
Wolven 943 YES!
Now everyone do you Aladeen, Thénardier or Aladeen him?

You don't use apostrophes to make words plural.
Where was Johnny Cash on this ?
This isn't the 2012 film version
JFD99BAD94 it is. It really is.
JFD99BAD94 eh yes it is...
Yeah it is
Jedson Bathsheba
Sounds like Rumplestiltskin
Honestly.. this version is very weak... no emotion.. no feeling.. very plain...
Kat W it's because you can't see their faces, watch the original.
