Leon

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Haunting and compulsive thriller. In Little Italy, New York, 12-year-old Mathilda's family is murdered by Stansfield, a corrupt cop. She barely escapes the carnage and seeks refuge in the apartment of Leon, a hitman. No one has ever depended on him for anything and she has nowhere else to go. The two form a surprisingly powerful relationship as Mathilda seeks revenge for her family. Widescreen. Review page 58.
Director Luc Besson (1994, 18)
