It’s fascinating to me how so many modern les mis adaptations see a story where THE titular cop is forced to face the fact he’s been the arm of a cruel and unjust system for the entirety of his life because he’s a cop, and this realisation is SO soul crushing that he submits his life to the only moral authority he sees left (God) via suicide; people see THAT story and go wow I can’t believe les mis is about one bad apple cop who we will also imply was just this weird because he’s gay
