In Les Misérables, follow the candlesticks to see Love triumph over Law.
Les Misérables is a tangled web of unrelenting law and unconditional love. What happens when justice and mercy collide? Law must be satisfied. Love must find reconciliation. There is no common ground between the two. If there has been wrong, law demands its due. Is this the dilemma of our relationship with God?

I dont grasp the reaxsoning for using the word reconciliation for Love. Whose Love? God's or mans? God's love is unconditional. There is no need for "dues' with God's free grace which reconciles us. Am I on track?
May I enter another movie for ponderance here,having just seen "The Life of Pi" (the Movie):and then reading reviews like http://www.bookish.com/books/life-of-pi/3b900130-d7a7-4fdc-840c-762... " Yann Martel's Life of Pi is a transformative novel, a dazzling work of imagination that will delight and astound readers in equal measure. It is a triumph of storytelling and a tale that will, as one character puts it, make you believe in God.' These links enlarge on it much more
