This is a fantastic film but no one ever mentions it these days because you're forced to, at best, gloss over or justify the deeply inappropriate love story. I convinced a friend to finally watch Leon the other day after hyping it up for a long time. And they couldn't get past the implied dodgy relationship. Afterwards I found myself repeating "but apart from that" in trying to defend a film I had great memories of. Thank god it was the theatrical cut or they'd probably never speak to me again. Big doesn't get a pass either.
Thank you for this clip, what a classic.
If only more of us could retain that innocence..
Awesome movie
