I’m not sure I understand your post. Are you claiming this film is amoral, or that it depicts amorality and evil for what they are?

My impression, having actually seen both the play and the film, suggests that it has amoral elements. These elements are always depicted as amoral. Most importantly, the character Jean Valjean is a surprisingly (I would say heroically) moral person.

It depicts the triumph of good over evil, the importance of true love, and making a sacrifice for the good.

If that is amoral, than what is your definition of morality?
I found it to be one of those rare gems: a diamond in the rough from Hollyweird.
