The problem is that you're comparing it to the book. Kubrick didn't care about the story, themes, or characters that King wrote. He just wanted to use the setting and premise to do his own thing.

She only stopped supporting Polanski to avoid criticism.

or so it seems

I personally found it to be one of the worst movies I’ve ever watched. It came across as a cheap parody of the book to me.

Okay dude.

I own both copies, I'm not sure what you're referring to besides the Mathilda drunk dinner, which is nothing more than Mathilda embarrassing herself. Leon doesn't approach anything inappropriate towards Mathilda, from what I recall.

very strange man

I completely agree, just wanted to know if i was the only one who found it unsettling but thankfully not.

not a good excuse mate

he’s a nonce

That’s just what it is called in my country i’m not sure elsewhere but yeah it’s definitely strange. I had no idea about Polansky petition so thanks!

i feel for you bro

yeah he definitely sounds weird

sounds like it

Where did zootopia touch you

Watch the European version, Leon: The Professional, it has different scenes and editing from the American version, The Professional. In Luc Besson's original cut, there are some very overt examples of, let's say, inappropriate interactions between a grown man and a child. Even moreso in his original script that didn't make the cut (thank fuck for that).

Luc Besson is a pedo, if that helps explain it.

The Count Of Monte Cristo (2002):

Pro: It is a great movie.

Con: It does a very poor job of adapting the source material.

(TV example, but this is for science) All of Millie Bobby Brown’s acting as El in S1 of Stranger Things. I was very impressed with how well expressed herself in so many scenes, conveying how she felt without a word.

Go back in time with a lot of money to 1915 and create a film studio and keep returning back in time to make it stick

Cruella

I am truly jealous that you get to experience this for the first time. I hope you love and enjoy it as much as I do!

I’m not interested in any biopic of modern people we have a lot of footage of.

Too much imitation.

Elvis, Judy, Bohemian Rhapsody, Eyes of Tammy Faye… just watch the real thing.

It does not, no.
