Because she's a confused little girl. Her poor upbringing and young age makes her confused about her feelings. She thinks love = sex, and tries to make Leon love her so she wouldn't abandon her. It's not like an american can comprehend little nuances of context beyond "LOL THEY WANT SUM FUCK"

I'm not necessarily talking about the narrative but the fact they cast a preteen into this sexualized role

how did luc besson convinced hershlag's parents to do this role?

According to an interview the hardest sell was the smoking, they only allowed it if she quits halfway through.

Yea bro, they should of had a 28 year old midget play it instead

Why is her midriff showing? Is this porn?

If you haven’t noticed that sexual tension in the movie is pretty one sided.

Leon doesn’t probably know what sex even is anyway.

yes he is very clearly a virgin. Somehow Amerisharts cannot comprehend this film. Who knew french kino could filter so many mart sharts?

I don't know if he was a virgin, he had to flee to America because of a woman.

According to wikipedia: When Léon was 18 in Italy, he fell in love with a girl from a wealthy family, but Léon was from a poor family. The two made plans to elope but when the girl's father discovered their plans, he killed her out of anger. Léon killed the father in revenge and fled to New York, where he met Tony and trained to become a hitman.

Dany Aiello even brings it up in the movie.

>Leon doesn’t probably know what sex even is anyway.
is he autistic?
why does he let some retard keep his money?

It was unironically a different time

Because he doesn't really does it for the money. He does it to have a purpose in life and because he's grateful to that guy for giving him a job. After he meets Mathilda, his life has a purpose.

Didn't the original script have a sex scene?

Yep. Leon was supposed to plaster Portman with cum after the dress up scene but the parents were against it

French kino is industrial filtering equipment.

With Leon being used like a tool by both Mathilda and Tony one can guess that said girl was also using him for something.

Escaping her abusive father most likely, since he ended up killing her.
