Anne Hathaway a “non-singer”? I think not. I also think Jackman did a creditable job and their decision to sing all of it “live” while filming was gutsy and added to the overall performance. Russell Crowe, on the other hand - well, never thought I’d see a show where Crowe was the weak link.
Hathaway was fine but again when you have Patti Lupone or Ruthie Henshall singing Fantine...

Picking Crowe was like picking Gerard Butler for the Phantom. They look great on a movie screen, and they can sing, but they are rock singers, so they’re still pretty limited.
