I have a whole new level of respect for Natalie Portman after finally watching this movie for the first time. Mathilda had a fucked up childhood then had her whole family killed, and little kid Portman absolutely sold me on it.
It's also a joy to hear Eric Serra's music in another 90s film. Though in Leon the signature sounds and overall tone feels much more subdued than it is in Goldeneye or The Fifth Element.
