Thanks for that, Bob. I might try and find the film to watch: there are so few
worth watching these days (I know, it's my age . . .)
But we watched Leon for the first time the other night and found it curiously
rewarding. But it is a film of its time: violence, gratuitous evil (e.g. in
the corrupt DEA officer) and a bit of Lolita action which is a little
perturbing.
