    • @chucku00
      @chucku00 2 роки тому +5

      French production and budget filmed in England (Pinewood studios). The only Hollywood input are most of the actors. That's also why Besson had the final cut in it. Even if his previous film, Leon the professional was shot in New-York, the production is also 100% French.
      The only time a French director made a big Hollywod movie in the 90's, it was Jean-Pierre Jeunet with Alien Resurrection. Contrary to many people I think it's a good (but not great) film, but Jeunet didn't get the final cut.

    Two facts: The "Divine Language" Leeloo speaks was actually developed by Luc Besson and Mila Jovovich. It has about 400 words. Props to the dedication for worldbuilding there.
    The Diva's song was written and edited to be unsingable by humans with fast pitch shifts and stuff, but since then, a few people have done pretty impressively close interpretations of it (Just look up "Diva Dance").

    Milla Jovovich was actually quite famous as a teenager. She was in movies, she had a music career. One of the tippy top models.

      There's a 11 years gap with her current husband, whom she married at 33 (he was 44). I'm not sure if that qualifies as "much much older". At 22 she married 38yo Luc Besson.
      11 or 16 years are not huge gaps in Hollywood at all. I mean I love Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively as a couple, but there's a 11 years gap between them. 20 years between Jason Statham and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. 11 and 16 seems just standard in the movie industry.

    Gary Oldman and Tim Roth, in their youth, played the leads in "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead". The brilliant Tom Stoppard essentially turned Shakespeare's tragedy "Hamlet" inside-out, so that we follow two minor characters both onstage and backstage, so to speak. While the main action of the play takes place offscreen or in the background, we stick with these two schmucks as they wonder what their purpose is, and follow them into their interactions with Shakespeare's characters before we once again go with R & S off to their own storyline again. And. it. is. funny!!! Clever and inventive beyond belief. In playing with the two characters, the movie plays with the viewers. A unique and original concept that I have seen copied but never equaled.

      The only other actor I can think of who made two movies (in this case, during the same year) with such radically different roles is Daniel Day Lewis in 1986, when he was in both "My Beautiful Launderette" and "Room With A View".

    So as far as Milla Jovovich she was in Return to the Blue Lagoon back in 1991, two years later she did Dazed and Confused. In '97 she did The Fifth Element which was one of the first movies to showcase her Martial Arts talent.
    I highly recommend Ultraviolet, and the Resident Evil films that all star Milla and show off her skills as a Martial Artist. They are great action movies although with little comedy.
