Question about Éponine
I know Éponine supposedly only appears in this film as a child, but upon recently rewatching it I noticed something. There is a young woman who seems to be a part of the ABC Society, and is executed alongside them during the fall of the barricades. Considering how this film seems to be somewhat based on the 1935 film (which puts Éponine as Marius' secretary, and thus a more active participant of the group), I wonder if this "mysterious" lady is supposed to be her?
Also, it seems that parts of the film have been cut (there are stills of a scene with what appears to be Petit Gervais), so I wouldn't call it impossible that there was more to this character than it exists in the final film (perhaps establishing her relationship with Marius).
