Ugly Frenchmen in Film

They're advertising a new animated movie type thing called Arthur and the Invisibles, though currently IMDB only lists it as Arthur et les Minimoys. I noted the writer/director was Luc Besson, who definitely looks like the uncle who should not be minding the children.

I then noticed that Besson is responsible for at least two movies I really like. One is The Fifth Element, which makes sense, keeping with the fantasy genre of the first movie. The other is The Professional, aka Leon, which is a different movie entirely.

The Professional is exceptional; violent, artistic, quirky, sympathetic. The lead, Leon, is played by
Jean Reno, who I recently noted to someone was the ugliest leading man in Hollywood. Reno is also brilliant, always fun to watch, even the bit parts he usually get's in the big stuff, e.g. Mission: Impossible.

Might have to see Arthur :p

Movies

Still thinking of watching another movie tonight. The TV is playing Eye of the Beholder which is one of the worst movies I've ever been unfortunate enough to sit through. I don't consider this a good sign.
