Chapter 143 This killer is not too cold

The lights in the theater went out and the pictures on the big screen lit up. Ryan could feel that Natalie seemed a little nervous and excited. This was normal. It was the first time she witnessed the release of a movie starring herself. Even if she was precocious or smart, she couldn't help but feel a little worried about gains and losses.

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

"Thank you, Ryan."

Natalie smiled at him, seemingly relaxing a lot, then looked to the other side, not far away, her parents were sitting, and Mrs. Shelley was smiling at her.

The picture flashed, and the opening of Miramax appeared, followed by the logo of Luc Besson Studio. With the aerial footage of Central Park in New York, the camera pulled into the streets of New York. After browsing the streets of Brooklyn, it finally got into a store and landed on a man wearing a glass of milk and a round sunglasses.

This is Leon!

Like most action movies, the beginning of "The Killer Leon" is also a hot action scene. Under Ryan's somewhat mischievous suggestion, Luc Besson also made a guest appearance, which is the fat gangster boss.

This is a hot and fierce gun battle scene, and it is also a solo show by Leon. He rushed into the gangster's lair like a ghost, and used all kinds of skillful and weird techniques to kill the gangsters one by one.

Through this series of rapidly changing shots, the movie explains Leon's superb side as a killer.

Faced with the threat of Leon coming and going without a trace, the gangster boss could only ask the police for help in a funny way. Just as he answered the phone, he quietly stretched out a hand in the darkness behind him and placed the knife on his thick neck.

The killer merges with the darkness, but everything is in control. This is Leon, a taciturn killer.

The camera kept changing and quickly explained the panoramic view of Leon. He was wearing a large black windbreaker, a dome hat, and a circular sunglasses on his nose. Even after many years, this was still a very classic movie image.

Of course, as Leon went to the convenience store to buy milk, the camera gave a close-up of about two seconds - implanted advertisement.

This movie is a scene between three people. The camera follows Leon's figure and enters an old-fashioned apartment. In the empty stairwell, a pair of brown leather boots stretched out of the guardrail of the stairs. As the camera moves upwards, the trousers with cartoon-patterned legs and burning cigarettes clamped on the fingertips appear one after another. Finally, the camera is frozen on the girl with a bob head and her face is tightly attached to the guardrail.

The burning cigarette was emitting green smoke between Matilda's fingers, but she never approached the girl's mouth. How sad would she feel at this moment?

Another major character in this drama also appeared. The crazy policeman Stan hangs his head and shakes his back with his head, and then sniffs over the girl's father like a hunting dog, all of which show his neurotic side.

This is a chilling character, even if he doesn't have a gun in his hand, it will be creepy.

The next shot renders the other side of Leon as a killer. He likes to drink milk, washes the leaves of the evergreen with his own hands, sits on the sofa with sunglasses and falls asleep quietly, and enjoys the movie "Song in the Rain" with a childlike smile in the empty cinema. These will remind people of the simple and innocent and simple side of his heart.

The phone ringing rang, Matilda pretended to be her parents and said, "She is dead!" After a conversation with the school that called for inquiries, especially after hearing her father's evaluation of her "problem girl", she stared in despair and cold eyes and said, "She is dead!"

That tone and expression vividly express Matilda's mood. Many people feel that there is nothing more sorrow than death at this moment.

Whether it is the scene of family life or the absolutely classic dialogue with Leon in the stairwell, it clearly tells the audience that the environment this rebellious girl lives in, how lonely and helpless, and even desperate, the only thing that can bring her warmth is her young brother.

Matilda's father finally caused a family destruction for his greed. Policeman Stan and his men came to the door.

At this time, the close-up of Stein taking drugs showed his madness even more. When he held a shotgun, fantasized about Beethoven's symphony, rushed into the apartment and started a massacre, even Matilda's young brother was not spared.

Matilda happened to go out to buy things and escaped this disaster. When she came back, she fell into a desperate situation of being unable to move forward and retreat, especially when she saw her father lying in a pool of blood from the open door, her eyes were clearly filled with fear.

She lowered her head and walked straight to the end of the corridor, where Leon's room was the only way to live. Standing in front of the door, Matilda burst into tears, desperately ringing the doorbell, begging for the door to open.

Facing the crying girl, despite some contradictions, Leon's kind heart still prompted him to open the door. At the moment the door opened, a bright light fell on Matilda's desperate face, illuminating her dark life, and allowing her to leave the old road and gain a new life.

He lowered his head and walked through the bloody house calmly, and used the voice of Transformers on TV to dispel the suspicion of the police who came to investigate. The audience gradually saw the other side of the girl, smart and quick-responsive!

In Leon's conversation, Matilda expressed her resentment for her family and her attachment to her younger brother, and laid the foundation for the girl's later persistent revenge, which also foreshadowed in some ways that this would be a tragedy.

In this way, two people who were originally irrelevant lived together. Although Leon, who was already middle-aged, had a gentle, kind, innocent and simple heart. Although Matilda was still young, she was mature in the stubborn surname Ren and was not commensurate with her age.

Both of them are falling into the world. They have lived and died together for a long time, which makes two lonely and longing for warmth get closer and closer, and gradually sparks of feelings.

The relationship between Leon and Matilda is naturally not as sharp as in previous lives. Although the incompetent love is eye-catching, it does not benefit Ryan or Natalie.

In those sensitive plots in previous lives, Ryan underwent many surgeries, and the shadow of inappropriate love became extremely faint, and it was more of a complicated and entangled relationship mixed with gratitude, fatherly love, family affection, attachment, and admiration.

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

For the plot that is really too prominent, Ryan simply deletes it, such as the scene where Matilda dresses up as Monroe.

This movie will make people feel excited after more than ten or twenty years. Apart from the obscure Lolita plot, it is the rhythm of the movie. I have to say that Luc Besson is not like a European director at all. Whether in the past or present, the rhythm of "The Killer Leon" is very compact.

You should know that many films in the early 1990s were slow and they were inevitably criticized after entering the new century.

It was not without reason that Luc Besson was able to become the banner of French films. Compared to those who talked to themselves and filmed things that were unknown, he knew better how to adapt to the market and audience.

The warm two world still cannot destroy Matilda's determination to avenge her younger brother. After finding out how to find out the office location of the policeman Stan, she did not inform Leon and chose to go to the police station to take revenge alone. However, she faced an absolute madman, an inexperienced girl, and what would happen to a experienced policeman?

Matilda was caught by Stan. Just as Stan's subordinates questioned her, Leon broke into the police station, easily killed the two guys, and rescued Matilda. However, Stan was also angry. He led people to Leon's previous home and forced him to find out whereabouts of Leon and Matilda.

At this point, the movie entered the final decisive battle. Stan led a large number of special police to surround the building where Leon lives. In the dilemma, Leon fought against dozens of special police alone. Although he rescued Matilda, who was arrested by the special police, he was only one person after all, and could not fight against the large number of well-equipped special police. Just when he was in a desperate situation, Leon forcibly smashed through the wall and opened the vent.

However, the ventilation duct was too narrow, so that it could only allow the young Matilda to pass through. At this very likely moment of separation from life and death, Matilda refused to leave Leon. She knew very well that parting was almost equivalent to separation from eternity, but in the end, under Leon's persuasion and coercion, Matilda left with the evergreen and the bear doll.

Leon dressed up as an injured special policeman, got through the barrier and came downstairs, but was recognized by Stan. In order to kill Leon with his own hands, this crazy guy actually transferred all the special policemen guarding the passage and hid alone in the dark.

Taking off the special police mask, Leon walked step by step from the darkness towards the light ahead, as if he would be reborn as long as he walked out of this passage and into the sun! But Stan's neurotic face appeared behind him, and there was a raised revolver.

Leon fell in a pool of blood, only one step away from the light he hoped for. However, before taking his last breath, he stuffed a grenade pull-up into Stan's hand as a gift from Matilda. Stan faced the bunch of grenades that were about to explode, but cursed expressionlessly, which fully demonstrated the police's neuroticism and madness.

After the loud "boom" sound, Stan died and Leon died.

He fulfilled Matilda's wish.

Matilda returned to school and buried the pot of evergreen who witnessed the two's life and intimacy under a tree with her longing for Leon.

"We're safe here, Leon!" The rebellious girl returned to the mainstream.

In the ending plot, Ryan also made a small change, which made Matilda, a character full of rebellion, have the meaning of returning to mainstream values.
