To this day I will never let go of my bitterness that people managed to turn Les Misérables into LITERALLY THE OPPOSITE of the novel's view of the revolution in question in Les Mis.https://twitter.com/loudpenitent/status/1321168901158309888 …

Yeah, like, pointedly, *nobody in the main cast actually goes to the barricade for revolutionary reasons!* Marius and Eponine are going to die. Valjean goes to save Marius. Javert is a state spy. Gavroche goes cause it seems fun.

The revolutionaries themselves are depicted as a bunch of dilettantes who go for a grab bag of vaguely lefty reasons. Granitaire is literally only there (and drunk the whole time) because he wants to bone Enjolras, who has actually a lot of creepy cult leader coding to me.
