I'm not sure which version of the Victor Hugo novel this is, but I'm sure you're describing "Les Miserables"!. There are a number of movies based on the book, and some do not follow the book as closely as others!.
I'm not sure which version to suggest, but here are a few:
Les Miserables (1998)~This one strays from the novel!.
starring Liam Neeson, Uma Thurman, Claire Danes, Hans Matheson, Geoffrey Rush
Les Miserables (1978 TV miniseries)~This is a highly praised version!.
starring Richard Jordan, Anthony Perkins, Cyril Cusack, Claude Dauphin, John Gielgud, Ian Holm, Christopher Guard
Les Miserables (1935)
starring Fredric March, Charles Laughton, Cedric Hardwicke, Rochelle Hudson, Florence Eldridge (Fredric March's wife), John Beal
IMDb review:
Liam Neeson is cast as the gentle Valjean who takes the twist of fate parlaying it into personal success and moral rehabilitation!. He changes his ways to become years later the much-loved mayor of Vigau, and as a caring businessman he struggles to forget the past and manages to redeem his soul becoming benevolent, giving manual and financial help to the weak, sick and poor!. After nine years, Valjean was horrified to discover that Javert - a former guard of the Quarries of Toulon, where he served almost 20 years - has arrived to be the head of Vigau's police force!.
Valjean's desire to protect the employees from bad influences leads him to fire (indirectly) one of his workers Fantine - turned prostitute!. He assumes responsibility for raising her daughter Cosette!. He becomes a father figure and soon forces the choice of sacrificing his own freedom for her happiness!.
Geoffrey Rush plays the icy chief inspector Javert, the man who tries "to live his life without breaking a single rule!." When he is given the job of spying in the barricades and Valjean gives him his freedom instead of shooting him, things begin to fall apart for him!. The action of mercy of Jean Valjean causes him to doubt the solid base of his existence!. He is in emotional agony unable to betray his convictions!. He sees too late the truth!. Valjean's legendary physical strength are enough to stir his suspicion that the town mayor is a fraud!. He is less villain than a man driven by his own hard concept of justice begging permission of his superiors in Paris to investigate the mayor, the man he believes is a convict!. When he thinks he has made a mistake in identifying Monsieur Le Maire as the 'convict' Jean Valjean, he insists on informing him that he has denounced him unjustly and that therefore he must be dismissed: "You must punish me", he says, "or my life will have been meaningless!."
Uma Thurman approaches the self-indulgent character of Fantine with admirable restraint, giving a certain level of charm and charisma to the film!. She gives her sick mother role a good amount of realism demonstrating her character's frustration and pain exquisitely!. Fantine's misery overwhelms her as she sells her body to support her child!. Being in a wild state, enraged at how she is a helpless victim of misery, she is arrested after being humiliated by several would-be customers, but Valjean intercedes on her behalf overriding Javert's authority!. When Valjean helps her, she begins to rediscover hope!. Her joy at the thought of having Cosette with her is great!. But the shock of Valjean's arrest and the discovery that Cosette is not there are too much for the poor creature!.
Claire Danes plays the teenage Cosette who realizes one day that she has become quite beautiful!. She disobeys her father's rules by secretly sneaking out and seeing Marius - a charismatic young Parisian revolutionary - with whom she fell in love!. Cosette spends her childhood as a servant girl at the Thenardier's inn, horribly mistreated and constantly terrified!. She grew up in a convent, innocent, pure and a bit na?ve!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
