Getting into these old movies, didn't need to strip naked to tell a good story in those days (although it helped)

25 years ago audiences were spellbound by one of the most unusual coming of age stories in film history. Directed by Luc Besson, starring Natalie Portman, Jean Reno and Gary Oldman



What kind of talent has her film debut against Jean Reno......at age 11 ????!!! :thinks:

Good background to it

Insurrection in air ?? I'd be pleased if the Scots tossed the poms


Good 4k transfer -I'd forgotten enough to really enjoy it.

always tears in my eyes and the 4k UHD easily exceeded the limits of my TV.
Sound was fantastic ....recall that from the orginal iMax release...bullets coming through that trawler...
Transfer was perfect - the kind of immersive experience I always hoped for......no buyers regret on that one.

Have it set up now with decent isolated cans courtesy of my kid 😢
I swiped them a couple years back and of course he got better ones. :D
