Natalie Portman's Awkward R-Rated Movie Moment | Letterman

She’s only 14, and she’s already more charming and funny than most adult actors. And it seems genuine, not like she’s trying to be cute like a precocious kid actor.

It seems like a practiced phase, the way she got flirtatious in interviews in her early twenties; it does seem to me like trying on a personality, a schtick. But she does it really well, natural, composed; like a good actress.

[@benwu7980]

The movie is a masterpiece, I still have it on vhs. It's very provocative with some of the scenes, especially the extended/ directors cut, while still staying somewhat charming. It also is ruinous for me to ever think that since then she grew up to be one of the most beautiful actresses alive, luckily she's quite talented and ever a sweetie.

The movie that Natalie Portman was talking about opening on Friday, 2/9/1996, was "Beautiful Girls". It was a moderately successful movie, estimated to break even at the box office with net profits coming from later online releases and video sales. Natalie's performance was singled out by critics as being one of the highlights of this movie.

[@Jim-vt5bf]

Deserved an Oscar for the professional. Watched the black Swan. Where she deserves the oscar. But her acting was even better in the professional.

[@ikemkrueger]

She was very convincing in "The Black Swan".

[@adunreathcooper]

Was it called The Professional in some countries? Because the movie is called 'Leon'. I've had it on DVD for years, and the cover says, "Leon the Professional", but the opening credits just say, "LEON". I watched it last night as well.

[@Maitatron]

It's a french film and in France the film is called "Leon" but i think that outside french-speaking countries the film was brandes as "The Professional".

[@Somnogenesis]

@@Maitatron In Britain it's known as _Leon_ too (well, to be precise, its original title was _Léon_ but we got it without the accent on the E, for some reason). I was hugely confused a few years ago when I started reading about her breakthrough film being something called _The Professional_ aged 14, when I was thinking, "Hang on, wasn't her breakthrough in _Leon_ at that same time...?!" -- I think it took me quite a while to realise it was the US title for the same movie! I believe Australia, for instance, 'doubled up' the titles - i.e. _Leon: The Professional_ 😄

@@tomamarque5817 Scripts are scripted. Topics are discussed.

[@camipco]

On most talk shows, they have an outline of the discussion. Typically, the guests sit down with a producer and they plan together what they are going to talk about. So Natalie likely would have told that story to a producer, and Dave would be told something like "she has a funny story about watching an R rated movie" or whatever. But she wouldn't have been sitting next to Alex. So it's plausible the "one of your brothers" moment was genuine an unplanned. But it's just as likely the producer told her she was going to be going on with Alex and she said "oh, I have a story about watching a movie his brother was in" and they went from there.

Funny thing about quotes like that, I know exactly the kind of person you are just by repeating it like that. It doesn’t matter who says it, in what context, or the rhetoric involved but right wingers will always cling and hold onto generalized propaganda statements like that no matter what the situation is. Everything is always “corrupting the youth!” or they’ll say “think of the children!” until it comes to their own actions or the kinds of things they support - then it can be as aggressive, violent, demeaning, offensive as humanely possible with no consideration for the youth in the slightest. The people corrupting today’s youth are the same people reciting these lines while being as hypocritical as they can.

​@@SuperCosty2010the point was never "she has nowhere to go from there". Saying "where does she go" is just pointing out that she's already so good that there isn't much room to improve... It's nice that you liked Star Wars but it was a definite step down in terms of how it utilised her talent. Not that she was wasted but it was a much more simple role that was mostly about her costumes. A step up in how many people saw it but as a serious actor that's not really the point.

After Leon - The Professional, I've garnered a HUGE respect for this actress. Then the following Star Wars movies she was amongst the only beacons of light. Back THEN, I did not have access to this programs from US TV, I was oblivious to this... Some like 10+ y later I've tried my best in learning the English language and american culture AND LO AND BEHOLD: Natalie is still overwhelmingly clever and charming... Natalie Portman, true genuine actress in my book.
