  1. Leeloo. Everyone calls her Leeloo.

  2. Fifth Element is a perfect movie. Everything in it, from atmosphere, sets and the cast to the balance of sci-fi, comedy and action, it's got perfect length and world building as it says what it needs in exactly the runtime. Also had gorgeous visuals and sound design. None of it looks brown, muddy, or too dark. It is the most European thing set in America possible (a migrant war vet from Germany in New York and Ukrainian-Balkan mixed girl with no silicone meet Bilbo Baggins and a Jewish priest, together they watch the opera and stop an Englishman finishing in OF COURSE Egyptian ruins while wearing Gautier costumes in a French film). There's also a cameo by Malotru from the Bureau of Legends... And Chris Tucker is genuinely funny. Also the American President of the future is bloody stone cold Lloyd Austin. We like him, he gives weapons... The deaf guy? He's a meme AGAIN when we are given MRAPs instead of fighter jets and long range missiles. Hard to find a film more beloved on Ukraine. Shame Luc Besson kinda stopped making sci-fi, Valerian was a mess but still had style, eyebrows, Ukrainian flags in soace (and no russia in the future) and the Rihanna scene. I miss French cinematography in those rare cases when they stop trying to make artful stuff and go with blockbusters.
