这个杀手不太冷Léon: The Professional Movie Script

Leon smiles.

LEON:

No, no.

TONY:

Pay attention to women, Leon. They are dangerous, you know?

LEON:

Yeah... Well... I don't know.. I don't know any.

TONY:

Listen, think about what you want to do, but don't worry, your money is there and it's safer than in a bank... Banks are robbed every five minutes!

Tony makes an effort to laugh.

TONY:

Anyway, you can't have a bank account, so the discussion is finished.

Leon nods.

LEON:

Why can't I have a bank account?

TONY:

I'll explain you, Leon: they'll ask you to fill in a lot of forms and you can't write and they'll ask you your job, your employer's name and you can't tell them: My job, I'm a hitman and my employer is Tony, his record is longer than his resturant's menu. That's why you can't have a bank account!

Leon thinks. Outside, Mathilda lets a young man approach her.

They start talking. Leon gets nervous.

TONY:

But your money is there, Leon. When you want, you ask me. Take... He hands one thousand dollars to Leon.

TONY:

Take...

LEON:

Well, I don't need them...

TONY:

Take them, you never know... If you want to have some fun. Take, it's a gift.

Tony puts the money in Leon's hand, who takes it.

LEON:

Thanks.

TONY (smiling) Good. Let's talk business, now?

LEON:

I've got a hit perfect for you. I kept it for you. To be made alone. That's what you like. Don't move, I get the file.

Manolo! A glass of milk for Leon!

Tony stands up and disappears. Leon looks out. Mathilda accepts a cigarette from the young man. They laugh. Leon can't resist any more. He stands up and exits. He kindly pushes Mathilda aside. The quite nice young man waits.

LEON(low voice) Pay attention, Mathilda. You can't let people approach you like that. People are kind and very fast, they offer you drugs or other things.

MATHILDA (smiling) Leon, don't worry. I'm on the street since I've born. I was just smoking a cigarette while waiting for you.

Leon pauses and looks at the young man, who smiles at him.
