Also, the author fails to mention that Valjean spent several years shacking up with a prepubescent female. Some hero. These days he would get several hundred years.
Unless I am mistaken, Valjean is a fictional character. On its own (sorry they couldnt fit the entire zillion page novel into the play) the film is a brilliant story of the difference between law and grace. But judging from your relentless criticism one might conclude that you are descended from Inspector Javert.
