Creepy old guy grooms young girl.
That describes most of Luc Besson’s movies, doesn’t it?
They had to chaperone Natalie Portman when she was working with him to keep her safe. He’s, shall we say, a well-known missing stair.
Missing stair is a very interesting and aptly-named phenomenon. TIL not only about that, but about Portman needing a chaperone around that guy! Thank you x2!
Apt because they can both be fixed with a hammer.
Also his relationship with Jojovich iirc.
You mean the relationship that started while filming the Fifth Element, which also featured his then girlfriend as the opera singer, whom he started a relationship with while she was like 16?
Dude's a super fuckin pedo creep.
Willis/Pacino/De Nero all have that same thing in a bunch of movies.
Actress is like 20, they're in their late 40s/50s
Just rewatched heat. Really good movie, but De Nero was 50+ with the actress he was supposed to be in love with...she was 20 something. It's just fucking weird, dude was old enough to be her father, and not the "I had a kid when I was 16" either.
She lived on Monkey Jungle Road and that seemed to explain all of her strangeness.
Holy crap, yea no kidding
Why i$ $he with him though...
Dirty Grandpa
Obviously the age difference is weird but was Korbin creepy? I remember him being super chill and circumstances kind of forced them together without either him or Lelu really leaning into it.
It’s less the actions of the character himself and more the general dynamic between the two that’s rather odd.
Primarily the dynamic of the being both a mentor/father figure AND a lover to a woman who has quite literally just been born.
There's a few interesting YouTube documentaries on the topic of "born sexy yesterday"
Yea that's how I usually watch this movie too.
