Jean Reno, Gary Oldman, Natalie Portman and Danny Aiello star in Leon: The Professional, a go-for-broke thriller about a professional assassin whose work becomes dangerously personal. Calling himself a "cleaner", the mysterious Leon (Reno) is New York's top hitman. When his next-door neighbors are murdered, Leon becomes the unwilling guardian of the family's sole survivor - 12-year-old Mathilda (Natalie Portman), but Mathilda doesn't just want protection; she wants revenge. Training her in the deadly tricks of his trade, Leon helps her track the psychotic agent (Oldman) who murdered her family.

Besson’s voice is definitely unique and distinct in everything he writes and directs. His decidedly French influence is obvious in everything from angles and costumes to the music chosen for his films’ soundtracks. Leon: The Professional is no different, which is part of what makes it such a classic movie loved by audiences around the world.
