Jesus Christ

I hadn't known this. I would have been happier being able to enjoy The Fifth Element without it... I guess in retrospect, The Professional is a pretty bizarre and creepy movie without needing to know that it had a horrifying back story.

Yes, The Fifth Element and La Femme Nikita are outstanding films, Leon is worth watching for Gary Oldman but the lolita stuff was completely unnecessary.
