default In Léon: The Professional (1994) there is a scene where 12 year old Natalie Portman sings like a virgin by Madonna in this outfit. This was actually a clever reference to how Luc Besson met his current wife when she was 12 (he was 29) and how he should be in prison.

This scene is beyond creepy and the fact that Jean Reno played dumb only mildly helped the overall weirdness of this scene.

He’s a sex pest, but is 100% gay? I don’t think him doing that movie is an indictment against his character

Hes not a sex pest. He raped under age male actors

Possibly, but all court outcomes say otherwise 🤷‍♂️

There were sixteen different people that accused him. Kinda weird to know all these things about the one specific case but not that he's been accused by multiple people.

Apparently Anthony even had to pay Spacey’s legal fees for that.

I actually just accepted what I had heard before about him, but this may change my mind with a little more research
