When Mathilda returns with the groceries she was sent to buy and notices the carnage, she calmly continues down the hallway past the open door of her family's apartment, and receives sanctuary from a reluctant Léon. One of the agents looks at Mathilda, quizzingly, as she has to insistently ring the bell on and on before Léon lets her in… | Buy or rent Léon: The Professional here: amzo.in/movie/isv/leon-the-pr...
Léon, the top hit man in New York, has earned a rep as an effective "cleaner". But when his next-door neighbors are wiped out by a loose-cannon DEA agent, he becomes the unwilling custodian of 12-year-old Mathilda. Before long, Mathilda's thoughts turn to revenge, and she considers following in Léon's footsteps.

Each performance brilliant in their own right.

It really is, because not a moment of it is wasted. As hippie dude is scrolling through albums, that part has a purpose, because then it leads to revealing the boy under the bed. Same with him going on about Beethoven to the victim, because it gives time for his crew to move in, you can even see them walking in there careful as they can lol. It is also brilliant how, when we see victim dude grab for his hidden shotgun, they don't show him fire it at all, they instead show the crew getting shot, and it opens the whole scene to the chaos in reaction, frame by frame. No need to show him shoot the gun when the audience already knows what's about to happen. I agree with you 100%.

There is a banned version (in the UK) which casts an additional light to the movie and explains some otherwise jarring elements in the film. I have an import copy. Think about Kubrick's "Lollita" if you want a context as to the full storyline of Leon. I believe it's the reason that Leon has to die at the end, he's not an anti-hero, this film is about the clash between two deeply evil criminals.

Also, film score composer Eric Serra deserves a lot more credit & recognition as his soundtrack for Leon is absolutely haunting & powerful.

A few years ago I worked a few blocks away from the 97th Street building and every day that I went to work I made it a point to walk past that building.

Gary Oldman is fantastic. Calm, crazy, sadistic, he enjoys causing pain, playing like cat and mouse. Amazing

What if Leon got scared when Mathilda turned on the TV and pulled the trigger, killing Stansfield's man and then finishing off the rest of the crew? The film would be incredibly short but still iconic. And this is precisely the skill of directing, acting, scenography and music.

Fifth Element is a fun movie, but La Femme Nikita and Leon are the masterworks of Luc Besson.

@hot2warm 16 күн бұрын

@@vlaskarountzos5803 There should be action heroes who are female. Hollywood has a bad habit of putting the feminist aspect to the female characters these days, rather than just being a good strong character who is female. Ellen Ripley from Alien and Sarah Conner from the original 2 Terminator movies are perfect examples. Good female heroes without feminism added. We didnt need to be reminded every other scene that they were strong female characters. We could see that through action, not by it being pointed out over and over.

Such a powerful scene. You have to wonder about the father who hears his daughter yell for him and then gunshots, and yet he does nothing. As mentioned elsewhere, the light flooding over Mathilda's face when Leon opens the door... Masterful.

@@phile6889 you play clueless very well, if not for your first comment ''Hugely under rated scene" , that movie won multiple awards and earned 300% for the makers, not that many movies could do that back in the 90's. The movie was a great success, and say 'underrated' , none of the scenes is.
