Léon : The Professional is a timeless masterpiece starring Jean Reno, Natalie Portman and Gary Oldman. Luc Besson directs a perfectly balanced crime thriller with western action set pieces and a European sensibility for character. In this video I explore the use of symbols and how Leon and Matilda save each other during the film.

    Ratchet is a sadist. She hides behind the veil of benevolent nurse but she enjoys wielding the power she has. She keeps McMurphy there to finish the game. She’s not done with him, she wants to crush his spirit in front of the others. Personally I view her as a feminist that took the job to get even with men.

    Thank you for a well constructed narrative of the film. Brilliant. Yes without a doubt one of the the very best films of all time. Seen it many times and am always in floods of tears. Watching what you presented, reminded me that he could have got away but instead went to check on Billy. I think I would have reacted the same. I have ADHD and it hasn't been said, but I believe he had this condition too. We feel things very deeply. He was a good man with an enormous personality and for that he was punished.

  • @StevenAlengakis
    @StevenAlengakis 3 місяці тому

    Great analysis,. Here are a couple of things that I think are important: 1. It isn't Daniel that actually abandons his son, HW, but HW that abandoned his father. When Daniel returns after many years, he does so in order to get money from him so he can start his own business. In the meantime, his father had descended into alcoholism, isolationism, and depression. While Daniel had checked up on HW through others, HW appears to have been so focused on himself that he had no contact at all with his father for years. Daniel treated HW as his son from the moment that he adopted him. Even if he did so because he intended to use him in his business dealings, the fact is that in all the scenes in this movie, he is loving toward him -- except at the end. Daniel was seething at his son's abandonment of him, at his son's indifference to his suffering. Daniel wanted to achieve wealth and was completely driven to do so, but he also wanted family, and he never did get that. Additionally, it was Daniel who is responsible for HW marrying Eli's sister. Without Daniel, those two would not have married and they were clearly happy. 2. Something that I think is important, and you may disagree with is that HW appears to have become his interpreter's son over the years. The incident that resulted in HW losing his hearing led him to his interpreter, and may have strained Daniel and HW's relationship permanently. If you watch carefully, particularly at the end with all the flashbacks, you see Daniel pushing HW away, but very subtly, you see his interpreter teaching HW, being very paternal toward him; he's at HW's wedding -- but his father isn't!, and he leaves with HW after that final meeting with Daniel.

    It should be forgotten, a three plus hour tedious bore with Ryan O"Neal's performance so wooden it could fill a forest. A good looker (as all K's are) but slowly paced (as most K's are). Far better period piece - Tom Jones (1963) with Albert Finney is better in every department, save for the cinematography, though it does a fine job of holding its own. Tony Richardson was no Stanley Kubrick but in these similar period pieces K comes up short.
