209.165.1.4

The following is a snippet of a review...maybe we did see different versions (I mentioned one was bowdlerized). Of course, if you're aware of Luc Besson, you'd know from Nikita that he doesn't shrink from tough subjects---and that he is quite strange.

"This version restores many scenes which were cut out of the original American theatrical release as they were of a violent and/or pedo-sexual nature and were deemed too "disturbing" for American audiences (Remarkable how "free" the USA truly is not). This new DVD release restores somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 minutes of the film: A scene in which Natalie Portman's character puts a pistol in her mouth, a couple of scenes in which she and Leon "clean", a scene in which Portman drinks alcohol at a restaurant, and others."
