I thought slightly less of the casting for Fifth Element after I learned about the "Born Sexy Yesterday" thing in conjunction with Luc Besson's personal life. Same with Leon.

While I enjoyed watching the movies, I feel like I would have to point out this dynamic if I were to show the movie to my kids.

That's a pretty wild take, but ok. I think you really have to be digging deep and "looking for trouble" to take issue with a fun and relatively wholesome movie like Fifth Element.

		Not to mention them getting together for the Fifth Element led to the Joan of Arc movie they did together afterwards (or at least contributed).
