There are some movies I haven't only watched them; I've lived with them. One of them is "Leon". I've watched it many times and every time, decoded some new things in this movie.
I see character of Leon as a symbol. He is not only a person. He is a human with some properties. His personalities could be find easily in his plant that he call it "his best friend". Leon's plant is so similiar with him: "It has no questions, has no roots..." exactly the same as Leon.
And when Mathilda came to his life, everything changed. At first, Leon tried to trow Mathilda out of his life, but he couldn't. In fact, Mathilda changed his life for ever. In one of the last scenes, when the polices attacked their room, Leon said to Mathilda: "You'll never be alone Mathilda".
In this scene Leon seems so different, because he has a new life, because he has root, because he sleeps on bed.
Anyway Leon died, but his beliefe will never die. Mathilda is the keeper of Leon's beliefe and will save it from destruction. Now Mathilda is 12 years old and living in a school out of the town and growing up, but after some years Mathilda will return as a young lady and Leon's plant will be a grown up and strong plant too. So we are waiting...
