The lights in the theater went out, and the picture on the big screen lit up, Ryan could feel that Natalie seemed to be a little nervous and excited, which was too normal, the first time to witness the release of a movie starring herself, no matter how precocious and smart she was, she couldn't help but have some gains and losses.

Ryan gently shook her hand, still so thin, "Relax, Nat, when the movie is over, everyone will know how good you are!" ”

"Thank you, Ryan."

Natalie smiled at him, seemingly relaxed, and then looked to the other side, where her parents were sitting not far away, and Mrs. Shelly was smiling at her.

The screen flickered, Miramax's intro appeared, and Luc was next? The logo of Besson's studio, with aerial footage of New York's Central Park, pulls the camera into the streets of New York, and after navigating the streets of Brooklyn, it finally sinks into a shop pù and lands on a glass of milk and a man wearing disc sunglasses.

This is Leon!

Like most action movies, "Killer Leon" opens with a fiery action scene, and under Ryan's somewhat mischievous mention, Luc? Besson also made a cameo, the fat gang boss.

This is a hot and fierce gunfight scene, and it is also a solo show for Leon, who rushes into the gangster's mansion lair like a ghost, and uses all kinds of skillful and weird methods to kill the gangsters one by one.

The film's fast-changing sequence reveals Leon's virtuosity as a killer.

Faced with Leon's threat of coming and going without a trace, the gang boss can only hilariously ask the police for help, just when he answers the phone. In the darkness behind him, a hand silently reached out and rested the knife on his fat neck.

The killer merges with the darkness. But one qiē is under control, this is Leon. A taciturn killer.

The camera shifts and soon reveals a panoramic view of Leon, dressed in a wide black trench coat, a bowler hat, and disc sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, which is still a very classic cinematic image even after many years.

Of course, as Leon goes to the convenience store to buy milk, the camera gives a close-up of about two seconds - product placement.

This movie is a play between three people. The camera follows Leon's figure into an old-fashioned apartment, in the stairwell that looks empty, a pair of small brown leather boots sticks out of the guardrail of the staircase, as the camera moves up, leggings with cartoon patterns, burning cigarettes caught in the fingertips appear one after another, and finally the camera freezes on the girl with a bob head and her face tightly pressed against the guardrail.

The burning cigarette curled green smoke between Matilda's fingers. But she has never been close to the girl's mouth, how sad will she be at this time?

Another main character in the play also appears, the crazy cop Stan hanging his headphones and shaking his head. and then sniffing around the girl's father like a hound, all of which showed his neurotic side.

It's a chilling figure, even if he doesn't have a gun in his hand. It can also be creepy.

The next shot shows Leon as a killer and likes to drink milk. I cleaned the evergreen leaves by myself, and sat on the sofa with sunglasses and fell asleep quietly. and in the empty movie theater, with a childlike smile, admiring the "Compendium in the Rain", these will remind people of the simple and innocent side of his heart.

When the phone rang, Matilda pretended to be her own parent, and after a conversation with the school that called to inquire, especially after hearing her father's comments about her 'problem girl', she glared at her desperate and cold eyes and said, "She's dead!" ”

That tone, that kind of expression, vividly expressed Matilda's state of mind, and many people had a feeling of sadness at this moment more than death.

Whether it is the picture of family life or the absolutely classic conversation with Leon in the stairwell, it is clear to the audience what kind of environment this rebellious girl lives in, how lonely and helpless, and even desperate the situation she faces, and the only thing that can bring her warmth is her young brother.

Matilda's father finally caused the trouble for his greed, and the policeman Stan and his men came to kill him.

At this point, a close-up of Stan taking drugs shows his madness even more, when he is armed with a shotgun, fantasizing about Beethoven's symphony, rushing into the apartment and going on a killing spree, even Matilda's young brother.

Matilda escaped the catastrophe by going out to buy something, but when she returned, she was in a desperate situation, especially when she saw her father lying in a pool of blood through the open door, and her eyes were full of fear.

With her head down, she walked straight to the end of the corridor, where Leon's room was the only way to live, and standing in front of the door, Matilda burst into tears, desperately rang the doorbell, and prayed for the door to be opened.

Facing the crying girl, Leon despite some contradictions, his kind heart prompted him to open the door, and the moment the door opened, a bright light fell on Matilda's face full of despair, illuminating her dark life, and also giving her a new lease of life.

walked through the bloody door with his head bowed and calmly, and used the voice of the transformers on TV to dispel the suspicions of the police who came to investigate, and the audience gradually saw another side of this girl, smart and quick to react!

In Leon's conversation, Matilda expresses her resentment towards her family and her attachment to her brother, which also paves the way for the girl's subsequent obsession with revenge, which in some ways foreshadows that this will be a tragedy.

In this way, two people who were originally unrelated to each other lived together, although Leon, who had reached the middle age, was a killer, but had a gentle and kind, innocent and simple heart, and Matilda, although she was still young, was stubborn and willful with a maturity that was not commensurate with her age.

is the same person who has fallen to the end of the world, and the long-term relationship and life and death together have made the two lonely and longing for warmth get closer and closer, and gradually spark their feelings.

The relationship between Leon and Matilda is naturally not as sharp as in the previous life, and although the love attracts people's attention, it does not benefit either Ryan or Natalie.

In the sensitive plots of his previous life, Ryan underwent a lot of surgeries, and the shadow of unruly love became extremely faint, and it was more of a relationship mixed with complex entanglements such as gratitude, fatherly love, family affection, attachment, and love.

Sometimes hazy and obscure feelings can move people's hearts even more.

Ryan simply cut out the kind of plot that was too prominent, such as the scene where Matilda dressed up as Monroe.

This movie will still be addictive to watch more than ten or twenty years later, except for the obscure Lolita plot, it is the rhythm of the movie, I have to say Luc? Besson is not at all like European directors, whether in his past life or in this life, he handles the rhythm of "Killer Leon" very tightly.

You must know that in the early 90s, many movies were slow-paced, and it was inevitable that they would be criticized after entering the new century.

Luc? It is not for nothing that Besson was able to become the banner of French cinema later, compared to those who talk to themselves and shoot things that they don't know what to say, he knows how to adapt to the market and the audience.

The warm world of the two still can't extinguish Matilda's determination to avenge her brother, after finding out the office of the police officer, she didn't tell Leon, and chose to go to the police station alone to take revenge, but she is facing an out-and-out madman, an inexperienced girl, and what will happen to an experienced policeman, it goes without saying.

Matilda is captured by Stan, and while Stan's men are interrogating her, Leon breaks into the police station and easily kills the two guys to rescue Matilda, however, Stan is also enraged, and he leads someone to Leon's home and forces him to find out the whereabouts of Leon and Matilda.

At this point, the movie enters the final battle, Stan leads a large number of SWAT officers to surround the building where Leon lives, in the predicament, Leon fights dozens of SWAT alone, although he rescues Matilda who was captured by the SWAT, but he is only one person after all, unable to confront the large number of well-equipped SWAT, just at the moment of desperation, Leon forcibly smashed through the wall and opened the vent.

However, the ventilation duct is too narrow, so that the young Matilda can only pass Guò, at this very likely moment of life and death, Matilda said that she would not leave Leon at all, she knew very well that parting was almost equivalent to goodbye, but in the end, under Leon's persuasion and coercion, Matilda still left with Wan Nian Qing and the bear doll.

Leon disguised as a wounded SWAT officer, got through the trick and went downstairs, only to be recognized by Stan, a crazy guy who, in order to kill Leon with his own hands, transferred all the SWAT guards guarding the passage and hid alone in the shadows.

Taking off the SWAT mask, Leon walked step by step from the darkness towards the light ahead, as if as long as he walked out of this passage and into the sunlight, he would be reborn! But Stan's nervous face appears behind him, along with a raised revolver.

Leon collapsed in a pool of blood, just one step away from the light he was hoping for, however, before taking his last breath, he shoved a grenade's tab into Stan's hand as a gift from Matilda, who was faced with a pile of grenades that was about to explode, and just cursed expressionlessly, showing the policeman's nervousness and madness.

After the loud bang, Stan dies, and so does Leon.

He fulfilled Matilda's wish.

Matilda returned to school, and with her thoughts of Leon, buried the pot of Wan Nianqing, who had witnessed the life and intimacy between the two of them, under a tree.

"We're safe here, Leon!" The rebellious girl is back on the right track.

In the plot at the end, Ryan also made small changes to make Matilda, a rebellious character, feel like a return to mainstream values.

The camera zooms out farther and farther away, through the top of the dense woods, New York is once again in the picture, where the vast sea is soft. (To be continued......)
