Still one of my favorite movies of all time. Beautiful soundtrack, beautiful story, beautiful characters. As a little girl, I was in love with Leon (I understand you, Mathilda! lol), and he still remains my favorite hit man ever. Jean Reno was perfect.
The Professional...I think the most perfect movie I've ever seen! Jean Reno, Natalie Portman, and the always crazed and illustrious Gary Oldman! That movie was a perfect combination of story and actors at a perfect time! Jean Reno and Natalie have never done anything again as wonderful as that movie! Gary Oldman, of course, has done so many great movies, before and since. Nonetheless, The Professional is a movie it would be hard for Hollywood to match. I could watch that movie a hundred times over, and still love it every time!!!
+TomLehocky yo in the actual script the dude and the girl get together during the whole process and they both suicide in the end. but they couldnt make a pedo movie look it up
+Daim Gamz Are you stupid? Only Leon suicides and he's even giving the girl's revenge to the guy who killed her family. The girl was in school for some kids "with problems" .
What a beautiful movie... What a powerful story... I can’t believe how gorgeous Nathalie was in this film especially while being so young... I feel strangely connected to this film. Like it won’t go away and just keeps coming back to me. I guess that’s a testament to how deeply it resonated with me...
whenever I watch this movie, I feel like my heart gets tore everytime. It's the best movie in my life and can't be changed. At the end scene mathilda plants the plant I'd heard shape of my heart and my heart was totally tore off. I cried for a long time after seeing this movie since the first time I saw this movie I've came a crazy fan of Natalie and after years now I'm still so I can say with confidence. It's the best movie in the world no discussion
This movie has one of the most powerful visuals. And the song just elevates the effect of it on you. No matter how many times I watch it or which composition video I watch it always moves me.
He deals the cards as a meditation And those he plays never suspect He doesnt play for the money he wins He doesnt play for the respect He deals the cards to find the answer The sacred geometry of chance The hidden law of probable outcome The numbers lead a dance I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But thats not the shape of my heart He may play the jack of diamonds He may lay the queen of spades He may conceal a king in his hand While the memory of it fades I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But thats not the shape of my heart Thats not the shape, the shape of my heart And if I told you that I loved you Youd maybe think theres something wrong Im not a man of too many faces The mask I wear is one Those who speak know nothing And find out to their cost Like those who curse their luck in too many places And those who smile are lost I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But thats not the shape of my heart Thats not the shape of my heart
"Shape of my heart" is one of my favorite songs of Sting. There are times when you watch a movie, music and scenes are so inter-connected that you have come to wonder if they were especially crafted for the movie itself. Leon is one of those movies as though the film was just created for the purpose to have the audience immerse in the even poetical lyrics of Sting. The sad yet hopeful ending of clumsy-desperate love story ensued by the beautiful melody accentuated the emotions of the audience which I'm certain the feelings lingered with them long after the end credit.
This movie has such a big “after effect”, its amazing i love it. When i first watched it, it was in my mind for weeks, i couldn’t stop thinking about it
What a wondeful movie! PERFECT CASTING!!! But, I don't care about the casting, even though it was so good! The story line is beyond perfect. I've watched this movie more than 50 times, and I LOVE it every time! Natalie Portman, Jean Reno, and Gary Oldman just sync into perfection, separately and together in this movie.
One glance, a knocking on the door that he chose to open and she was forever. And without a second thought, he laid his life in front of her because deep down, he always knew that he despised that lonely feeling of nobody's knocking on the door.
Two people with completely screwed up pasts find comfort in each other, age irrelevant. They finally find peace in each other's arms, so much that he would give up his life to rescue her from her slavery, and destroy all the lowlifes that stand in the way. Beautiful poetry in a film.
Mathilda: I don't want to lose you Leon... Leon: You are not going to lose me Mathilda, you have given me a taste of life. I'm going to be happy, sleep in a bed, have roots, never be alone again Mathilda. I love you Mathilda. Made me cry
An absolute classic film. This incredible song at the end of the film was like decorating with a fine garnish after making a beautiful dish. Thanks for dubbing this OP.
I am just watching this film for my first time at a few days ago Jan 2017. I view some comments on my country websites as well. One girl said, she had never watched it till 2015 by then she just graduated from university. She thought she would have been learned Franch and been to France if she could view it earlier before. For the Leon--Jean Reno. Very touching story and actors. I don't think I will forget it.
It's impressive the way an old movie can make us feel so alive, i was just born back in 1994 and have watched this movie throughout my childhood, but never completely. Leon and Mathilda are love and careness. And then by the end you get graced by Sting.
Classic motion picture! Wonderful script and touching story. Well made with incredible production value. Terrific cast of actors that give absolutely perfect performances. A film that you can go back to and always enjoy more than one time. First class action picture that is worth watching.
I watched the movie few times when I was younger. Still into it. The movie made me fall in love with Jean Reno. One of Great movies. Heart breaking relationship, pure love. Amazing song. Hope there's a sequel "Mathilda the Professional".
I'm a songwriter myself. A million leagues below Sting of course, but, I can't even imagine how to start writing a song like this. I mean, even the key change is seriously unorthodox - and yet seriously beautiful. Magnificent movie, magnificent song.
That was a wonderful Luc Besson's movie...Natalie was fabulous...and Jean Réno was just perfect...concerning the movie's sountrack, thanks to this Sting's song, the movie will be always unforgettable......
Beautiful movie, well done on every level! Gary Oldman...FREAK. Jean Reno...Too cool. Natalie Portman...excellent! The movie's about 20 years old now, but I think it has a presence, an emotional 'touch', that will never grow old. Whenever I know it's coming on TV, I reserve 2 hours just to watch it!

A song that's honestly so heartfelt. Like it just gives me sadness, of the battles and journeys I'm on, and thats still taking place with my life every single day. A song filled with raw emotions and feelings with a film that is truly memorable, unforgettable, legendary, and filled with emotions that you honestly can't help but feel alongside the characters & the emotional story behind it. A film & song where its just pure black and white, a film & song that has such strong emotions & feelings from/to your heart. Its a film where you just feel pure raw emotion as if you're the character or if you're seeing it first hand in person. A film with such a perfect selection of a cast with such underrated actors such as Jean Reno, Natalie Portman debuting in her first ever film which launched her acting career, Gary Oldman, and so many others. A film with such an emotional bond that you honestly can't explain it fully, its something that you honestly have to feel it to experience it. Its a film that's meant to be experienced through emotion, not through explanation just like Leon whenever you would see his character's facial expressions of what he would feel, like the amount of strong emotion behind it, is incredible, especially towards the end of the movie where you'd expect it to end off in a happy ending but it ends sadly. It can't be described fully in words, just through your own heart & emotion, especially with how perfect the film was, like there's no flaws with it. It's a film filled with strong emotional, action-packed storyline and soundtracks that honestly make you feel sad for Leon and Mathilda as if you're a part of them. Jean Reno truly nailed the performance like hes so underrated, and it really shows the amount of talent Natalie had which started her career in one of the greatest films of all time like all the roles were nailed perfectly. Its just a masterpiece. Not only that but this movie didn't have much of a budget either, and it turned out to be so successful and one of the greatest films of all time, which you can't deny, its something that everyone agrees on, like it or not, it is. Luc Besson the director literally nailed it & also proved how even at the time you didn't need that need such a huge budget to accomplish these things, and what an era it was, and what a big name for European Films if not the greatest European film, in comparison with American films that need such a big budget to accomplish the effects, it really shows the difference between the two as all thats needed is raw emotion. Such a masterpiece, a film like I said filled with such an emotional bond that you honestly can't explain it fully, its something that you honestly have to feel it to experience it. Truly unforgettable, memorable and much more. I honestly wish it got more credit that it was unfortuantely given, it honestly deserved so much credit, especially an award for Jean Leno and his performance. Such a perfect selection, such a perfect story, film, and of course music selection. One of the few films where you experience raw emotion, and feelings.
I. Loved. It. If you don't know the sacrifices of a rare love, and if you haven't seen the uncut original French release then you're missing out. Thanks for that uniquely constructed clip. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Very deep movie.. Almost every scene is a masterpiece...did anyone ever notice what. Leon was staring at the second time he went to Tonys shop? That's when you know something is a masterpiece...it's the small things that add to the legend.
I'm 30 years old. This the first time listening this song , I think its my. Favorite song from all time. What a song , excellent. Respect from #Bangladesh#kudos_to_Reno_&_Natalia
Sometimes I feel that Leon The Professional still is number one in this genre. I saw many modern movies but this old classic one still rules on so many levels. Story and strong cinematics rules everything (which, to be frankly, is often replaced by weak stories but lots of special effects...like John Carter).
Most of the men who've seen this movie starts to feel something they learn that they can't feel. They call this feeling "weird", but they know exactly what they're feeling, they just think it's wrong and try to repress it.
This was a perfect song to close out the film. From that intense final fight to the events leading to the end of the movie with Matilda and Leon's plant, and then this plays and you're just like wow. Kinda calms you down a bit to recollect what happened and ponder what might have become of young Matilda as she grew up. RANDOM THOUGHT: I always though it'd have been cool to do a sequel to Leon where she is now a "cleaner" herself. I mean, Natalie Portman has done some action since this film.
C'mon, you know Leon would've never wanted her to become a cleaner, and the only reason she wanted to was for revenge. And if Leon died for her revenge, it all would've been for nothing. Have some empathy man.... Simply put, one of the greatest films of all time.
I think Matilda as an adult would be almost the same character as Nikita in the film, Nikita by the same director. Of course, Jean Reno plays a similar character in this film from several years earlier.
This is one of the most personal songs I have ever heard. The movie it was played in made me lose a part of myself for a few minutes that I work so hard to keep control of every day. This is my all time favorite song and movie. The singer of the song and the beautiful job of the actors who are so amazing . Writers, producers, etc. I Love you all. It was so amazing .
I 'discovered' this movie just about a week ago after looking at and listening to a video of the song by Sting set to scenes from the movie, even though the film was originally released all the way back in 1994. I have since viewed two other similar videos as well as some of the trailers, video clips and behind the scenes discussions about the movie itself. I found a copy of the movie to watch and I am about one third of the way through it. I simply can't remove the scenes of this beautiful, amazing and young Natalie Portman and the echoes of this song from replaying over and over again in my mind's eye. Set against the backdrop of extreme violence, abuse and neglect and juxtaposed against the tender affections and caring that this grown man offers to this seemingly 'innocent' little girl, the movie is a brilliant portrayal of what so many youngsters today experience in their own neglected and 'fend for yourselves' urban lives in so many big cities around this world. These two things - the song and the movie - paired together and delivered by these very talented actors and the artist Sting are simply AMAZING! Thank you Victoria Venom for sharing your own video with those of us who are still in awe.
Natalie portman's best movie still. i remember seeing it in the theater all those years ago. i wish she and the guy who played leon would get together for another movie, because the chemistry between them was perfect.
She healed him so he could redeem. Everyone deserve a second chance - Yes even, your strongest enemy needs love. Mathilda gave more love in that short time with him - Than in his entire life... Sacrifice him to protect her from becoming even worse than he was to be.. Yes , it was a controversial love from Matilda - but remember that those two had LOST EVERYTHING in life.. Leon was a tortured and tormented soul, she just gave him sincerity and love - a candid love. Matilda heard the mafia killing everyone - Saw her father dead in blood - She knew that her little innocent. brother was killed too. She was chocked and alone, but she was strong enough to stay alive, not giving into craziness. Leon and Matilda shared the same feelings - have lost all and loneliness for life. She saw Leon as a lover - husband despite his age. He saw Matilda as the daughter he loved to have. She wanted to live with him as wife / husband He wanted to keep her away from " cleaning" No "pedo" thing here - in that actual scenario ( scenario was modified ). For the Judgers: - IN THIS CONTEXT, what if - if it was US or YOU, IN THAT SITUATION of someone who just see death, knocking at your door, asking you "help me" will you just ignoring it, KNOWING that she WILL be killed, if you ignore her? - Letting her get killed to satisfy morality?.. And still looking at you in the glass ? - IN MANY YEARS of sufferings / loneliness / torments, who can predict the way that we will react. Leon just wanted to protect Mathilda.. he wouldn' t had open his door. NO ONE have the right to JUDGE someone else.. Only God Can...
She gave the Italian Hitman feelings he never knew he had. The first night he wanted to put Matilda out of his Misery because he was afraid of making attachments in his line of work. What burns deep is for once in his life he actually loved someone other than himself. When Leon died it burned my soul cause he gave up everything to protect Matilda even if it meant dying. Wich explains why he had Matilda have his earnings under his will.
Mathilda : Leon, sanırım bir şekilde sana aşık oluyorum. Bu başıma ilk gez geliyor, biliyor musun ? Leon : Daha önce hiç aşık olmadıysan, bunun aşk olduğunu nerden biliyorsun ? Mathilda : Çünkü hissediyorum. Leon : Nerede ? Mathilda : Karnımda. Sıcacık. Hep orada bir yumru olurdu. Ama şimdi geçti.
Je pleure chaque fois quand j'écoute cette chanson. J'ai l'impression que ça montre, comment l'amour peut être dans notre monde actuel. Cette relation pure dans un monde violent, entre un enfant et un tueur à gage, ça me tue! J'aime autant Sting pour sa douceur de la voix que Jean Reno et la petite actrice charmante. On doit se poser cette question tous: "où est l'amour? qu'est-ce que nous fabriquons dans cette vie sans amour et avec beaucoup d'ambitions insensés,"
Everyone - Even you strongest enemy have the right to have a second chance to change. She gave him pure love and restored his heart. She killed the killer but saved Leon's soul...
Adoró la película gran tema musical y un elenco perfecto 👌 2019 y siempre lo escucho en las noches, además de ver la película cada dos meses , saludos desde 🇵🇪
Sting - Shape of My Heart [HQ] Video: Léon: The Professional (French: Léon; original US title: The Professional) is a 1994 English-language French thriller film written and directed by Luc Besson. The film stars Jean Reno as the titular mob hitman; Gary Oldman as corrupt DEA agent Norman Stansfield; a young Natalie Portman, in her feature film debut, as Mathilda, a 12-year-old girl who is taken in by the hitman after her family is murdered; and Danny Aiello as Tony, the mobster who gives the hitman his assignments. From in Mexico the name were El professional played to the soundtrack of "Shape Of My Heart" by Sting. Album: Ten Summoner's Tales. (1993) Ten Summoner's Tales is the fourth solo studio album by the rock musician Sting. Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner (Born 2 October 1951), better known by the stage name Sting is an English musician, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, activist, actor and philanthropist. He is best known as the principal songwriter, lead singer, and bassist for the influential new wave rock band The Police and for his subsequent solo career. Lyrics to “Shape of My Heart”: He deals the cards as a meditation And those he plays never suspect He doesnt play for the money he wins He doesnt play for the respect He deals the cards to find the answer The sacred geometry of chance The hidden law of probable outcome The numbers lead a dance I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But thats not the shape of my heart He may play the jack of diamonds He may lay the queen of spades He may conceal a king in his hand While the memory of it fades I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But thats not the shape of my heart Thats not the shape, the shape of my heart And if I told you that I loved you Youd maybe think theres something wrong Im not a man of too many faces The mask I wear is one Those who speak know nothing And find out to their cost Like those who curse their luck in too many places And those who smile are lost I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But thats not the shape of my heart Thats not the shape of my heart ua-cam.com/video/nVYFOlVB-Uo/v-deo.html
Still probably my favourite film along with True Romance hard to separate the two. Jean Reno is perfect in this role and Gary Oldman pure genius....yes it's sad and melancholic but I defy anybody to watch it and not say it's a fantastic film.
Still one of my favorite movies of all time. Beautiful soundtrack, beautiful story, beautiful characters. As a little girl, I was in love with Leon (I understand you, Mathilda! lol), and he still remains my favorite hit man ever. Jean Reno was perfect.
The Professional...I think the most perfect movie I've ever seen! Jean Reno, Natalie Portman, and the always crazed and illustrious Gary Oldman! That movie was a perfect combination of story and actors at a perfect time! Jean Reno and Natalie have never done anything again as wonderful as that movie! Gary Oldman, of course, has done so many great movies, before and since. Nonetheless, The Professional is a movie it would be hard for Hollywood to match. I could watch that movie a hundred times over, and still love it every time!!!

I love all the three - Gary, Jean and Natalie so much! I cried a waterfall while watching the ending...
this movie needs grammy, i don't care how old it is
Yep thay sure don't make flicks like this anymore.
One of those movies thats so good it kinda makes you feel sick and depressed because you can't watch it again for the first time.
Danny Wical Holy fuck, yes. I thought I was the only one who felt this way.
i can watch this over and over....but i can only watch "slumdog millionaire" once
Wow true
And you can never see Mathilda for the first time again
You missed the dash in that's good😊
This is a fantastic movie... one of my all time favorites. Just watching this with the music from sting puts a little tear in the eye, beautiful stuff

He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesnt play for the money he wins
He doesnt play for the respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But thats not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But thats not the shape of my heart
Thats not the shape, the shape of my heart
And if I told you that I loved you
Youd maybe think theres something wrong
Im not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who smile are lost
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But thats not the shape of my heart
Thats not the shape of my heart

A song that's honestly so heartfelt. Like it just gives me sadness, of the battles and journeys I'm on, and thats still taking place with my life every single day. A song filled with raw emotions and feelings with a film that is truly memorable, unforgettable, legendary, and filled with emotions that you honestly can't help but feel alongside the characters & the emotional story behind it. A film & song where its just pure black and white, a film & song that has such strong emotions & feelings from/to your heart. Its a film where you just feel pure raw emotion as if you're the character or if you're seeing it first hand in person. A film with such a perfect selection of a cast with such underrated actors such as Jean Reno, Natalie Portman debuting in her first ever film which launched her acting career, Gary Oldman, and so many others. A film with such an emotional bond that you honestly can't explain it fully, its something that you honestly have to feel it to experience it. Its a film that's meant to be experienced through emotion, not through explanation just like Leon whenever you would see his character's facial expressions of what he would feel, like the amount of strong emotion behind it, is incredible, especially towards the end of the movie where you'd expect it to end off in a happy ending but it ends sadly. It can't be described fully in words, just through your own heart & emotion, especially with how perfect the film was, like there's no flaws with it. It's a film filled with strong emotional, action-packed storyline and soundtracks that honestly make you feel sad for Leon and Mathilda as if you're a part of them. Jean Reno truly nailed the performance like hes so underrated, and it really shows the amount of talent Natalie had which started her career in one of the greatest films of all time like all the roles were nailed perfectly. Its just a masterpiece. Not only that but this movie didn't have much of a budget either, and it turned out to be so successful and one of the greatest films of all time, which you can't deny, its something that everyone agrees on, like it or not, it is. Luc Besson the director literally nailed it & also proved how even at the time you didn't need that need such a huge budget to accomplish these things, and what an era it was, and what a big name for European Films if not the greatest European film, in comparison with American films that need such a big budget to accomplish the effects, it really shows the difference between the two as all thats needed is raw emotion. Such a masterpiece, a film like I said filled with such an emotional bond that you honestly can't explain it fully, its something that you honestly have to feel it to experience it. Truly unforgettable, memorable and much more. I honestly wish it got more credit that it was unfortuantely given, it honestly deserved so much credit, especially an award for Jean Leno and his performance. Such a perfect selection, such a perfect story, film, and of course music selection. One of the few films where you experience raw emotion, and feelings.
❤, Všetko povedané.
Kult einfach Kult!!!Bestes duo der Filmgeschichte überhaupt 👍
Mathilda: [after planting Leon's plant in the school grounds] I think we'll be okay here, Leon.
@Mim is Spencer school her new home now. Now that Leon dead what she had was the plant that he gave to her to make her remember him by.

I. Loved. It. If you don't know the sacrifices of a rare love, and if you haven't seen the uncut original French release then you're missing out. Thanks for that uniquely constructed clip. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Oh my God this film! If ever there was a perfect film, then this is it.
ikr
One of the greatest films made. Besson did an amazing job
One of the best movie I've seen.
Oh what a fabulous song/flick. Sting is the Boss and……… that harmonica!!!!!!!! Haunting beautiful it is.
Very deep movie..
Almost every scene is a masterpiece...did anyone ever notice what. Leon was staring at the second time he went to Tonys shop? That's when you know something is a masterpiece...it's the small things that add to the legend.
J. Reno, Natalie and Gary Oldman - brilliant role. Great movie
Simply the best movie of all time..Jean Reno is a legend!hit like if your watching this in 2015-2016
in 2017 ;*
2025. I'm from the future. Help. Everyone's nuked each other.
2018
...and Gary Oldman the perfect villain :)
2019!!
I'm 30 years old. This the first time listening this song , I think its my. Favorite song from all time. What a song , excellent. Respect from #Bangladesh#kudos_to_Reno_&_Natalia
Luc Besson at his best. Fantasic casting and directing. Jean Reno, Gary Oldman and Natalie Portman are brilliant. An absolute masterpiece
it's 2016 and I'm still not over this
+Alona Steele that ending though. sad shit.
3 years!
2019 now lol
I still can’t get over this
Nikki Fitzy me to 😢
@@vampynikki7065 i was gonna say welcome to the future about to be 2020
Some movies are just masterpieces of art that you'll never be able to forget until ya die...
Sometimes I feel that Leon The Professional still is number one in this genre. I saw many modern movies but this old classic one still rules on so many levels. Story and strong cinematics rules everything (which, to be frankly, is often replaced by weak stories but lots of special effects...like John Carter).
Most of the men who've seen this movie starts to feel something they learn that they can't feel. They call this feeling "weird", but they know exactly what they're feeling, they just think it's wrong and try to repress it.
This was a perfect song to close out the film. From that intense final fight to the events leading to the end of the movie with Matilda and Leon's plant, and then this plays and you're just like wow. Kinda calms you down a bit to recollect what happened and ponder what might have become of young Matilda as she grew up.
RANDOM THOUGHT: I always though it'd have been cool to do a sequel to Leon where she is now a "cleaner" herself. I mean, Natalie Portman has done some action since this film.
x33mmm the plant has a sequel! XD In "Where the heart is". In my opinion was a wink of director.
C'mon, you know Leon would've never wanted her to become a cleaner, and the only reason she wanted to was for revenge. And if Leon died for her revenge, it all would've been for nothing. Have some empathy man....
Simply put, one of the greatest films of all time.
I think Matilda as an adult would be almost the same character as Nikita in the film, Nikita by the same director. Of course, Jean Reno plays a similar character in this film from several years earlier.
This is one of the most personal songs I have ever heard. The movie it was played in made me lose a part of myself for a few minutes that I work so hard to keep control of every day. This is my all time favorite song and movie. The singer of the song and the beautiful job of the actors who are so amazing . Writers, producers, etc. I Love you all. It was so amazing .
I 'discovered' this movie just about a week ago after looking at and listening to a video of the song by Sting set to scenes from the movie, even though the film was originally released all the way back in 1994. I have since viewed two other similar videos as well as some of the trailers, video clips and behind the scenes discussions about the movie itself. I found a copy of the movie to watch and I am about one third of the way through it. I simply can't remove the scenes of this beautiful, amazing and young Natalie Portman and the echoes of this song from replaying over and over again in my mind's eye. Set against the backdrop of extreme violence, abuse and neglect and juxtaposed against the tender affections and caring that this grown man offers to this seemingly 'innocent' little girl, the movie is a brilliant portrayal of what so many youngsters today experience in their own neglected and 'fend for yourselves' urban lives in so many big cities around this world. These two things - the song and the movie - paired together and delivered by these very talented actors and the artist Sting are simply AMAZING! Thank you Victoria Venom for sharing your own video with those of us who are still in awe.
Leon: “Stop say okay ok?”
Mathilda: “okay”
Me: lol
Father - Daughter " dumb" games :D
@@tsl7804 Father and daughter????? lol
Natalie portman's best movie still. i remember seeing it in the theater all those years ago. i wish she and the guy who played leon would get together for another movie, because the chemistry between them was perfect.
Leon is Jean Reno, a french actor
Perfect Movie. Jen Reno, Portman and Gary Oldman just awesome
This movie and the music 🎵 makes me cry 😭 it's too emotional to be honest.
Thank you! Finally I was looking for this version.
This movie change your definition of love.
This movie always makes me so emotional, so does this song...
She healed him so he could redeem.
Everyone deserve a second chance - Yes even, your strongest enemy needs love.
Mathilda gave more love in that short time with him - Than in his entire life...
Sacrifice him to protect her from becoming even worse than he was to be..
Yes , it was a controversial love from Matilda - but remember that those two had LOST EVERYTHING in life..
Leon was a tortured and tormented soul, she just gave him sincerity and love - a candid love.
Matilda heard the mafia killing everyone - Saw her father dead in blood - She knew that her little innocent. brother was killed too.
She was chocked and alone, but she was strong enough to stay alive, not giving into craziness.
Leon and Matilda shared the same feelings - have lost all and loneliness for life.
She saw Leon as a lover - husband despite his age.
He saw Matilda as the daughter he loved to have.
She wanted to live with him as wife / husband
He wanted to keep her away from " cleaning"
No "pedo" thing here - in that actual scenario ( scenario was modified ).
For the Judgers:
- IN THIS CONTEXT, what if - if it was US or YOU, IN THAT SITUATION of someone who just see death, knocking at your door, asking you "help me" will you just ignoring it, KNOWING that she WILL be killed, if you ignore her? - Letting her get killed to satisfy morality?..
And still looking at you in the glass ?
- IN MANY YEARS of sufferings / loneliness / torments, who can predict the way that we will react.
Leon just wanted to protect Mathilda.. he wouldn' t had open his door.
NO ONE have the right to JUDGE someone else..
Only God Can...
She gave the Italian Hitman feelings he never knew he had. The first night he wanted to put Matilda out of his Misery because he was afraid of making attachments in his line of work. What burns deep is for once in his life he actually loved someone other than himself. When Leon died it burned my soul cause he gave up everything to protect Matilda even if it meant dying. Wich explains why he had Matilda have his earnings under his will.
thanks to upload it. My fav movie. I always cry, I don't know why.
I cried on this film... LOVE IT ! ♥ Natalie portman ♥
Mathilda : Leon, sanırım bir şekilde sana aşık oluyorum. Bu başıma ilk gez geliyor, biliyor musun ?
Leon : Daha önce hiç aşık olmadıysan, bunun aşk olduğunu nerden biliyorsun ?
Mathilda : Çünkü hissediyorum.
Leon : Nerede ?
Mathilda : Karnımda. Sıcacık. Hep orada bir yumru olurdu. Ama şimdi geçti.
Bu mahni stinqin ifasinda cox xosuma gelir ...( shape of my heart)
Leon : Haha okay stop this, I ain't understanding a shit
Mathilda : ROFL let's now pretend we are french k ?
:)
@@zepriana7406 tam da bunu yazacaktim
I love this sad but beautiful movie. Never bored about it. 2020/04/26 I'm looking at the video. Who else ? Friendly from France
Je pleure chaque fois quand j'écoute cette chanson. J'ai l'impression que ça montre, comment l'amour peut être dans notre monde actuel. Cette relation pure dans un monde violent, entre un enfant et un tueur à gage, ça me tue! J'aime autant Sting pour sa douceur de la voix que Jean Reno et la petite actrice charmante. On doit se poser cette question tous: "où est l'amour? qu'est-ce que nous fabriquons dans cette vie sans amour et avec beaucoup d'ambitions insensés,"
im crying now :(
+But _First_Hack you slimy :D
Iam evre time cry with this song
Its Ok.
I'm crying now. 07.36
Nothing is more lethal than a woman, even for Leon.
+melle gerda hehe, i suppose you can see it that way also :) - but lethal like "leon style" not "naked weapon - or some shit style"
+melle gerda elle n'est pas une femme, elle etait une fille.
+melle gerda but she healed his soul. gave him peace. Thats better than a healthy body without a soul
+melle gerda so fucking true
Everyone - Even you strongest enemy have the right to have a second chance to change. She gave him pure love and restored his heart.
She killed the killer but saved Leon's soul...
Luc Besson yessss a wonderful movie,the director's cut a must-see,very nice video
Adoró la película gran tema musical y un elenco perfecto 👌 2019 y siempre lo escucho en las noches, además de ver la película cada dos meses , saludos desde 🇵🇪
Una excelente película, excelentes actores, excelente tema de Sting... Todo perfecto. Simplemente inolvidable!!!
True Love exists after all..
The best of Sting. Woooooooooooooow!
This song is being played only at the ending roll never in the middle of the story. Thanks！Now I can
enjoy these scenes with the song.
What a masterpiece
Best movie I have ever watched
"It's always this hard or only when you're a kid?
- Always like this."
❤️
I cried,I love Léon forever😿the best movie in the world
The movie was and is ahead of its time. Some of the concepts are so deep.

Lyrics to “Shape of My Heart”:
He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesnt play for the money he wins
He doesnt play for the respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But thats not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But thats not the shape of my heart
Thats not the shape, the shape of my heart
And if I told you that I loved you
Youd maybe think theres something wrong
Im not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who smile are lost
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But thats not the shape of my heart
Thats not the shape of my heart

great movie, just fantastic.......
Still probably my favourite film along with True Romance hard to separate the two. Jean Reno is perfect in this role and Gary Oldman pure genius....yes it's sad and melancholic but I defy anybody to watch it and not say it's a fantastic film.
That little girl. The whole cast. It’s was well put together. Masterpiece
*16/5/2019* anyone? *this film made me so sad*
First saw when I was 12, I cried then and I am crying now. In a world full of hatred, it is curious how a song and movie can bring us together.
Hey
One of the best movies of all time it hit me hard
Its 2019 and i keep loving this song..its so beautiful
