“The Fifth Element” is a science fiction film directed by Luc Besson and released in 1997, which became a classic loved by moviegoers due to the diversity of characters, the presentation of a futuristic world and two unusual villains.
Although many people think they know everything about this production, it turns out that there is one fact that you probably didn’t notice and it will blow your mind, we explain.
The main villains and the protagonist of the movie “The Fifth Element” do not interact with each other
The story follows Korben Dallas, a former soldier and now taxi driver in New York, who becomes involved in a disturbing mission when Leeloo, a mysterious woman who is the “Fifth Element”, literally falls for him.
As the plot unfolds, Korben and his companions discover that Leeloo is the key to saving Earth from the impending destruction caused by a being known as the Big Bad and his ally, businessman Zorg.
While it’s common in feature films for the hero to confront the villain or villains head-on, it turns out in this story that’s not the case and the evidence is there for all to see.
Despite the lack of interaction between Korben Dallas and Zorg, there were bonds between them.
When you watch the tape carefully, you can see that Korben, Zorg and the Big Bad never exchange a single word, and although the first two almost cross paths while taking the elevator, neither of them know what the other is like physically .
It turns out that Zorg works in the shadows to please the Big Bad, but he also has his own company that, strangely enough, the protagonist used to work for, who ends up getting fired due to a huge cut.
The strange thing is that the character played by Gary Oldman learns Dallas’ name shortly afterwards and decides to illegally arrest him so that one of his henchmen can impersonate him and steal the stones that help activate the fifth element.
Seeing no good results, Zorg decides to search for them himself and fights against Leeloo, but ends up falling short of his goal and dying when a bomb goes off.
The last time some type of connection between the two was shown is when Korben and company seek to leave the planet Floston Paradise, which they accomplish by stealing the antagonist’s ship just before he dies.
