Leon The Professional (1994) Edit

A damp, black cloth is the best.

A damp, black cloth is the best.

A drink.

A few hours later, a little 12 year old girl comes into my office...

A job? What the hell can you do?

A little left, please.

A little...

A month.

A nine "Millie."

After I've seen the outline of my brother's body on the floor...

Afterwards, they started liking it, like cigarettes.

Aim for the heart and lungs.

All right, fine. Put it down. This one.

All right. Now let's talk business.

All the money I make, that you keep for me...

Alora, come stai, Leone?

Alpha team. Man down.

Always happy. No questions.

Always like this.

Amazing.

And always dress down.

And always dress down.

And I have to practice.

And I haven't done anything with my money.

And I want you to stop smoking. It will kill you.

And if you lose?

And in exchange, you teach me how to clean?

And it's not always like that.

And stop saying "okay" all the time!

And stop smoking cigarettes!

And trust me.

And we'll never see your fat fucking face again.

And you wanna join him?

And, already, you were in deep shit because of a woman.

Another nine "Millie."

Are you gonna change your tune or I gotta bust into his?

Armed to the teeth, with the firm intention of sending me to the morgue.

As a matter of fact, right now I have one in my kitchen...

Asshole! Come on, show me your fucking face, faggot!

Bang, we shot him.

Bastard!

Beat you.

Because I have an audition at Juilliard next month...

Because if there is...

Because it gets very hot and could burn it inside.

Because it lets you keep your distance from the client.

Because of a drug problem.

Before I came to the States.

Before... Ple...

Bene.

Benny, don't fire!

Benny, there are three kids here.

Benny, turn that kitchen upside down! Find that shit!

Benny, we're comin' out!

Besides, with a bank...

Better make it quick or else we'll be all day listening to his crap.

Blood, do you hear me?

Breathe easy.

Bullets.

But after his openings, to be honest...

But for this kind of work, he's a little bit light.

But he's dead.

But I could learn the basics, the theory.

But I want you to know I'm not the kind of woman who'd let down a child...

But if they are not here, there is very little we can do.

But if you will refer to the rules and regulations manual we sent you...

But if you're gonna be a hard ass about it...

But it's all dark out here in the hall, and I'm lost.

But it's not big enough for you. It's barely big enough for me.

But it's your money. In the meantime...

But old Tony, nothin' to read, nothin' to write. It's all in his head.

But on one condition:

But they got nothin' to do with it.

But they smell like shit.

But this guy, he don't wanna hear about it.

But you did open it. So...

But you won't get the bastards that killed my whole family?

But you're doing all right.

But...

Bye.

Can I have a word with you?

Can I leave my plant here while I take my stuff upstairs?

Can someone who's doing nothing all day but watching cartoons...

Can we try with real bullets now?

Can we try with real bullets now?

Can't see shit. Too much smoke. Give us five minutes.

Careful, Blood, might be poisoned.

Change ain't good, Leon. You know?

Change the channel, and I'll smash your face.

Check it.

Check out Brahms. He's good too.

Check the terrace!

Chinese?

Christ, he shot him!

Clean up the goddamn house!

Clean up! I'm tired of this fuckin' mess.

Cleaner.

Clear the hall! Let him through!

Clear the way, men.

Clint Eastwood?

Come here.

Come here.

Come on, everybody out! Let's go! Out!

Come on, let's get a cigarette.

Come on, that's my ball!

Come on! Hustle!

Come on.

Come on. Just a kiss.

Come on. You think I ain't hurtin' too?

Come!

Cool.

Cooperation.

Cute name.

Daddy, can I please fill them out? I like to check in to hotels.

Damn! Where you goin', man? That's my ball!

Death is whimsical today.

Detective Jefferson. May I help you?

Dial this number.

Did you find the girl?

Did you really have to do that?

Do you have keys to the apartment?

Do you know who came and got her right there in my building?

Do you like it?

Do you like life, sweetheart?

Do you understand?

Do you want me to open it? I'll open it.

Does he expect you?

Does paying rent here mean I have to put up with you guys?

Don't forget the code when you come back.

Don't forget the name of the chef who fixed it for me.

Don't let me see your face till next month...

Don't move. I'll get him.

Don't move. I'll go get one.

Don't move. I'll go get the file.

Don't take it badly, but I don't think you could do it.

Don't take your eyes off him.

Don't talk like that about pigs. They're usually nicer than people.

Don't tell my dad about the cigarette, okay?

Don't touch that, please.

Don't worry about it. We'll do ten for twelve.

Easy, man. I'm a cop.

Easy. Careful. You want me...

Easy. Easy.

Enjoy.

Everyone!

Everything's been different.

Except better than a bank because banks always get knocked off.

Except he's not really my father.

Fill those out, please.

Find out who did by tomorrow.

Find out yourself!

First you find out where the chain is.

Five hundred feet with a lens.

Follow the blue car.

Food.

For me it's the opposite. I'm old enough.

Fourth floor!

From here on out, you don't make a sound.

Fuckin' bitch.

Get a medic on the horn!

Get in there!

Get off my case, Mathilda. I'm tired of your games.

Get that guy off the stairs!

Get the chair. Sit down.

Give that back. Where you goin'?

Go ahead. What about Saturday?

Go shopping alone, like before.

Go sit down.

Go to sleep, and we'll see tomorrow.

Go.

Good night, Leon.

Good night.

Good night.

Good.

Good.

Good.

Good.

Good.

Grab the axe off the wall. Over there. Go!

Happy birthday to you

Hasn't even been cut yet. Go ahead, take it. It's yours.

He comes to town every Tuesday. Are you free Tuesday?

He does tend to get a little fucking boring.

He just used to sit next to me and cuddle.

He just wants a little conversation.

He never used to cry.

He put aside a little cash for you.

He said go back inside.

He told us she had "problems."

He wants to talk to you.

He was a hit man, the best in town, but he died this morning.

He was fast. He fuckin' came out of nowhere.

He's a piece of meat. Forget about it. Calm down.

He's dead.

He's gonna do the same exact thing that I said.

Headmistress at the Spencer School in Wildwood, New Jersey.

Help me. Please don't beat me.

Her dad went nuts every time she'd take off to see me.

Her name is Mathilda.

Here.

Here. It's for a contract. Twenty grand, right?

Here's okay. Let it go.

Hey, Leon, nothing's gonna happen to you.

Hey, what is going on up there? Take the guy out, not the building.

Hi, Mathilda.

His name is Norman Stansfield, and he's in room 4602...

Holy shit!

Holy shit.

How about a kiss, like in the movies?

How about I work for you...

How about something to drink, Tony?

How about workin' at home today?

How are you doing? Take your mask off, quick.

How are you today?

How do you know it's love if you've never been in love before?

How do you like it? Nice, eh?

How much would it cost to hire someone to get those dirtbags...

How's that?

Hurry up!

I ain't got no work for a 12 year old kid...

I always had a knot there, and now it's gone.

I can clean.

I can't park in front like this. It's a federal building!

I did my best.

I didn't cut your shit.

I didn't want my old man to find out. Got enough problems.

I do not want to fight you, but you leave me no choice.

I don't give a shit about sleeping, Leon.

I don't know any Susan.

I don't know what happened. I didn't see 'em coming, I swear!

I don't know.

I don't know. It's none of my business. You give me the stuff, I hold it.

I don't think it means anything.

I don't think it's a good idea.

I don't wanna die tonight.

I don't work like that. It's not professional.

I fell off my bike.

I finished growing up, Leon.

I gotta disturb him.

I have a kid, 17, does nothing all day long.

I have a lot of respect for your business, Tony.

I haven't got time for this Mickey Mouse bullshit!

I haven't received any complaints.

I hold the stuff you give to me. I don't look at it or touch it.

I hope so, because he's got a talent for sniffin' out a lie.

I hope you'll excuse my mood.

I just can't.

I just get older.

I just went shopping and I came back, and they were everywhere.

I know how to read now.

I know I've got a lot of money with Tony.

I know she's young, but she learns fast.

I know your husband paid tuition in advance for a year...

I know. I taught you that. But ain't there an age limit?

I left with the greatest guy on Earth.

I like these calm little moments before the storm.

I like to stay in shape.

I lost a good man here. What the fuck do you want with me?

I love Mozart!

I mean...

I missed you.

I need a hand now.

I need this, Leon.

I need time to get my head together.

I need time to grow up.

I never leave this place, except to go from here to there.

I never lend out my gear.

I never really sleep. Got one eye open always.

I never saw someone with one eye open snore so much.

I put a cloth over the strings to lessen the noise.

I read that once in one of my sister's magazines.

I really hope that deep down inside there's no love in you.

I said, "Let it go."

I saved your life yesterday, right outside the door.

I says to myself, "Leon's a pro. Nobody uses that except beginners."

I should hold the money for you until you're older.

I think I went too far this time.

I think it was somethin' personal.

I think Stan killed this girl.

I think that in a few minutes you'll regret you never said anything.

I thought maybe someday I could use it.

I thought my hearin' was goin'.

I thought we don't have the right to drink.

I told you that.

I told you.

I took a hit.

I wanna be happy, sleep in a bed, have roots.

I want a piece of cake first!

I want death.

I want love...

I want to be strong and smart like you.

I want to kill those sons of bitches.

I want you to make an effort to talk nice.

I want you to put the sack on the floor.

I want you to stop cursing.

I want you to take a chance...

I was 19.

I was just about to say that. I swear. It's amazing.

I was just in there, and I didn't see any goddamned pig.

I was just smoking a butt while I was waiting.

I was more of a mother to him than that goddamned pig ever was.

I was thinking.

I will.

I won't be long.

I wouldn't be a good lover.

I'd like you...

I'll be with you in a second. Give me a few minutes. Thank you.

I'll clean your place. I'll do the shopping.

I'll do it.

I'll even wash your clothes.

I'll just be off a moment.

I'll pay now for the rest of the year.

I'll put you at the end of the hall...

I'll talk to you later, sweetie, okay?

I'm Bianca Ferrar.

I'm calm.

I'm dying to meet him.

I'm going grocery shopping. You want some milk?

I'm gonna connect you with an officer.

I'm gonna get some milk for breakfast. I won't be long.

I'm gonna get some more milk.

I'm gonna go to the restroom.

I'm gonna play you some.

I'm late for work. I hate being late for work.

I'm learning, but I've had a lot of work lately...

I'm looking for Mr. Reuben's apartment...

I'm not the one with a fat ass around here.

I'm putting in a name of a girl in my class who makes me sick.

I'm sick of watching you sleep on your chair.

I'm singing in the rain

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. You must have the wrong door, little girl.

I'm telling you the truth.

I'm telling you the truth.

I've been nothing but nice to you.

I've been working a long time...

I've decided what to do with my life. I wanna be a cleaner.

I've got it.

I've got one minute past.

I've never had another girlfriend.

I've seen better days.

If anything happens to me...

If I win...

If it leaves your mouth, I'll pull the trigger, capisce?

If it's from a person who doesn't care about it.

If somethin' happened, and I think somethin' happened.

If something happens to me someday...

If they can't recognize the client, you don't get paid.

If things get hot, she'll take the heat.

If you couldn't stand them, why are you crying?

If you don't help me, I'll be dead by tonight.

If you don't help me, I'll die tonight. I can feel it.

If you saved my life, you must've saved it for a good reason.

If you throw me out now, it's like you never opened your door...

If you'll just take us step by step through exactly what happened.

In a car accident four weeks ago.

In a different way

In June, we gave you the dope. It tests 100 percent pure.

In my stomach.

In taking a life...

In the D.E.A. building, 26 Federal Plaza.

Into healthy, productive young women.

Is he alone?

Is life always this hard, or is it just when you're a kid?

Is Mr. or Mrs. Lando home?

Is that what you call "I won't be long"? I been here for ten minutes.

Is there a code, a way of knocking, so he knows it's you?

It determines the rest of her life sexually.

It makes you think and helps your memory. It's exactly what you need.

It was terrible.

It wouldn't hurt her to move her ass.

It's all warm.

It's almost like a sixth sense.

It's always the same thing.

It's been a long time, Leon.

It's better than a bank 'cause banks always get knocked off.

It's like me, you see.

It's like me. I gotta know where everything is all the time.

It's okay.

It's over! The game's over!

It's scary.

It's Susan.

It's the first time for me, you know.

It's the guy. He's here. He's got a gun to my head.

It's Tonto, downstairs. There's a guy wants to talk to you.

It's when you start to become really afraid of death...

It's your money. I'm just holding it for you, like a bank.

Italian food.

Italian hit man.

Jesus fuckin' Christ, Benny!

Jesus fuckin' Christ, Benny! It's Malky and Stan!

Jesus fucking Christ.

Jesus.

Jesus. Look what you did.

Jogger in the yellow and orange?

Just a little bit of love in there for me...

Just a second.

Just curious.

Just do me a favor.

Just do me a favor. Don't shoot out the window.

Just for today.

Just singing in the rain

Keep calm.

Keep calm.

Keep it.

Kids need to be shaped into something, right?

Kids should be at school.

Leave that poor family alone.

Leon asked me to help you out...

Leon, all we do is work.

Leon, get a grip. What's the big fucking deal?

Leon, I think I'm kinda falling in love with you.

Leon, I want you to teach me how to be like you.

Leon, really brilliant.

Leon, what's up? All done already?

Leon's dead!

Let me guess.

Let me put the mask back on. I breathe better with it.

Let me see you. That's deep. Right. And this one here...

Let me speak to our mutual friend.

Let's get out of here.

Let's go! Move!

Let's open up his sleeve a little bit.

Let's practice now. It's the best way to learn.

Let's talk business.

Like a bank, you know, except...

Like a virgin

Like that.

Like you let me die right there in front of it.

Listen, Mathilda, you better be careful.

Love has made me see things

Make sure he understands, and let him go.

Makes people nicer. Starts them thinking.

Malky was makin' a buy for us from the Chinaman.

Malky, wait.

Man, keep your bombacut mouth shut.

Manolo, a glass of milk for my friend Leon here.

Manolo, make that two.

Manolo, take the kids in the kitchen.

Mario, go back to the barbershop. We'll finish later.

Mathilda, I'm glad you don't have a stomachache anymore.

Mathilda, no.

Mathilda, since I met you...

Mathilda, why are you doing this to me?

Mathilda.

Maybe he'll listen to you.

Maybe I could give...

Maybe she was planning on taking out the whole building.

Meet you here?

Mickey, open your eyes. We got company.

Mister, I have to use it...

Move a little ass and go get some food?

Move your fuckin' asses.

Move!

Move. Move over.

Mr. McGuffin?

Mrs. Lando, when your husband enrolled Mathilda at Spencer...

Mustache.

My girlfriends told me they hated their first experience.

My man was killed right here on your turf.

My money.

My parents...

My sister wanted to lose some weight. Bet she never looked better.

Never brighter than the floor, okay?

Never in the face.

Never take it off until the last minute. It reflects light.

Nice tattoo.

Nice to see you again, Mr. Jones.

Nicer than people, eh?

Nineteen.

No one knocks off old Tony.

No, drive slowly.

No, the second goes higher on the chest.

No. You just look a little young.

Nobody moves.

Nobody sent me. I do business for myself.

Noon.

Not a good half at that.

Not my problem.

Not so respectable.

Not thirsty?

Not today. Let's pack up.

Nothing.

Nothing's free. Like a parking meter.

Nothing's the same after you've killed someone.

Now I want you to tell me everything you know about Italian food.

Now it's clean.

Now it's July, we pick up the dope, and it tests 90 percent pure.

Now take this money and get the hell outta here.

Now, the security shot.

Now.

Of course he didn't.

Of course.

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God.

Oh! Fuck!

Okay, a year.

Okay, but not after 10:00.

Okay, now, get this fucking asshole out of there.

Okay, pilgrim.

Okay, the girl's comin' out. Let the girl go.

One day or another, I would have probably done it myself.

One hour.

One night I...

One quart or two? It's two, right?

One thing's got nothin' to do with the other. Remember that.

One!

Open up.

Or death.

Our 30 minute look at the latest in entertainment news.

Overtures like that get my juices flowing.

People got memory problems these days. It must be the sun.

Personal, is it?

Piggy, where are you?

Please don't shoot!

Please open the door.

Please, go now, baby. Go.

Position.

Pretend you're running with him.

Put your head down. It's okay. Relax.

Put your legs up on the bed.

Read it.

Ready for the legs. And down.

Relax, man. I got half of Bolivia sitting in them suitcases.

Relax. Everything's fine. Sleep well?

Remember when you arrived in this country?

Remember, neatness counts.

Revenge is not good once you're done. Believe.

Right.

Right.

Right. Now you're responsible for it.

Ring these up. I'm gonna go get some milk.

Ring trick? Come on, asshole. I'm waiting.

See you at Tony's. I'm gonna clean them all. Tony's in an hour.

See, nothing can stop love, Leon.

Seein' as how you're still so young...

Serious.

She still snuck off to see you, right?

She was from a very respectable family.

She's 18.

She's dead.

She's not even my real sister. Just a half sister.

She's not my mother.

Shit! She's gonna hit me!

Shit.

Shit.

Shit.

Show it to me, motherfucker.

Sign here.

Since then I've never left the city, and...

Sir, it's not my dope.

Sir, look I...

Sir?

Snipers.

So get it out of your goddamn head!

So go play somewhere else.

So I just need some time alone.

So I tend to go for the heavier guys.

So I'm a little behind.

So I'm going to help you and do my best to welcome you here again.

So it's safe to say today's your last day in town...

So powerful.

So say it.

So this is something...

So we figured that Tony might know something.

So what I'm suggesting is that...

So what?

So, how old were you when you made your first hit?

So...

Somebody's coming up. Somebody serious.

Somewhere between June and July, ten percent turned to cut!

Sorry, sweetheart.

Squeeze. Release.

Stan, I think it's better if we go inside.

Stan, I've been looking all over for you.

Stan, you all right?

Stand up. Don't you like your job?

Stay away from the window.

Stay there, all right?

Stop, man!

Stop. Everyone is watching us.

Sure. Always stay on top of it.

Sweetheart, turn that down. Mama's got a headache.

Take a deep breath. Hold it.

Take it easy, all right?

Take it easy.

Take it. It's a good bye gift. Go clean, but not with me.

Take the hundred bucks, and shut the fuck up.

Tell me what happened to you.

Tell that fuckin' kid to do a little work around here!

Thai, maybe?

Thanks, mister!

Thanks, Pop. I'll bring these back in a minute.

Thanks.

That nothing could possibly go wrong

That you learn to appreciate life.

That's because they didn't love the guys.

That's exactly why today is going to be very hard for me.

That's good, Leon.

That's good.

That's it.

That's the ring trick.

That's very clean...

That's very smart.

The Chinks tell me that the hit man...

The closer you can get to the client.

The closer you get to being a pro...

The kind of game you love.

The light's out.

The rifle is the first weapon you learn how to use...

The same night I took a boat and came here...

The third one's missing. Find her.

The very same...

Thelma and Louise didn't work alone. They were the best.

There is rules.

There it is.

There was someone a long time ago.

There you are.

There's a round in the chamber. I heard it.

There's always tons of forms and all that shit.

There's cops outside. We better go.

There's no anchovies on this.

There's this really great game, Leon.

They can see you coming from a mile away.

They gotta be jumping out of the plate. They gotta be alive.

They just did it to show off.

They kept him in jail for two days, and they let him go free.

They killed my brother.

They said it was an accident.

They told me this guy came from the outside. He was a pro.

This building's full of rats.

This fat bastard is moving in on Morizio's business.

This has been a most unusual day

This is from...

This is she.

This one is too big.

Those fuckers blocked both the exits.

To give her...

To meet up with my father who was working for Tony.

To someone.

Tony, I thought about my money.

Tony...

Toss the apartment.

Touched for the very first time

Training don't pay as good as working, Leon.

Training's good, but don't overdo it.

Trust me. I'm in good shape.

Try to feel his next movement.

Two and up.

Two knocks, then one, and two knocks again. Right?

Two. Take a deep breath in.

Wait!

Wait. I won't be long.

Wait. There's more.

Waited for him.

Was kind of the Italian type.

Watch his movement.

We didn't have the time to get to know one another when you first came here...

We got company.

We have no chance together. But if I'm alone, I can do it.

We know you're a busy man. We'll make this short.

We need a break. Let's play a game.

We said no women, no kids.

We said noon.

We were doing our job.

We're gonna share the bed.

We've always been satisfied.

We've got one breathing here!

We've got two men comin' down the stairs. Let's hurry!

Well, if we're making exceptions for a job well done...

What about the ring trick? You know that one?

What are you doin' out here? Get inside and do your homework.

What are you doing here? Get out. Come on.

What are you fuckin...

What do I say?

What do you do for a living?

What do you think?

What do you think? Just the theory.

What do you want me to do? I've got no place to go.

What happened?

What happened? Did you follow the procedure?

What the fuck is going on? Hey, mister!

What the hell did he do? He was four years old.

What up? Move! Fuck.

What you doing?

What you doing?

What?

What?

What? Two hundred men can't find one man and a girl?

What'd you plan to do with all these guns?

What'd you plan to do with all these guns?

What's happening out there?

What's he look like?

What's my job? I'm just a holder.

What's this? Lunch.

What's your name, angel?

Whatever her situation, whatever her mistake.

Whatever you want.

When he's into his music, he hates being disturbed.

When I took you in, you were still wet behind the fuckin' ears...

When it's tough like this, you know it's gonna be ugly.

When things could look black

When you stop, you pay. It's the law.

When you told me to get this baby out for you...

When you use the Quadra Step, your thigh muscles...

Whenever you want it, you just ask me.

Where?

Who killed my brother?

Who should I hit?

Whoever.

Why am I feeling

Why are you so mean to me?

Why did you hide the cigarette?

Why don't you leave them alone?

Why not?

Wildly killing people you don't give a shit about...

Will I like it the first time?

Will you rent me your gear for the day?

Willy Blood, look what you did! You killed a 4 year old kid!

Willy, that asshole, shot the little boy.

Would you do me one favor?

Would you take her up to my office?

Wow.

Yeah, and I need...

Yeah, and I only get the leftovers, is that it?

Yeah, I forgot.

Yeah, I hear you, Stan. Just chill out, man.

Yeah, I know, but he's dead.

Yeah, I'm free Tuesday.

Yeah. Right.

Yes, I do.

Yes.

You always come up with somethin', right?

You answer my questions by nodding yes or shaking your head no.

You better stay here.

You can hear it growin'.

You can hear the insects.

You can't just speak to any guy off the street.

You can't see it, but you can feel it. Here.

You can't talk to people like that all the time.

You could take out anybody and said you did the job.

You don't know how to read.

You don't know what you're missing.

You don't like Beethoven.

You expect me to forget?

You expect to use that in this hotel?

You got a problem?

You got it.

You got one half hour.
