Wissenswertes
Michel Audiard did not write a line for this film. He is not even in the credits. He was perhaps originally approached to collaborate in the writing, notably because of his affinity with Jean Gabin, finally did not contribute to it. Jean-Paul Le Chanois makes this clear in his interviews with Philippe Esnault: I liked Hugo's work very early on, I'd written the screenplay with René Barjavel (who had worked with me a bit on "Le Cas du docteur Laurent").

Zitate
Courfeyrac: It's a pity to kill that young man, he could be your brother.
Enjolras: He is.

Alternative Versionen
For the release in West Germany, the film was considerably censored and shortened, as well as completely re-dubbed.

Best film version of Les Miserables I have ever seen.

I have seen numerous film adaptations of Les Miserables. This 1957 French version (directed by Jean-Paul Le Chanois) is the best one I have ever seen. I watched the version that was produced by The Bridgestone Group in 1992 with English audio (ISBN# 1-56371-044-7). It aligns closely with the plot of the novel, and the cinematography is outstanding.
