Mistakes

Right after they "create" Leeloo and she is lying in the plastic cage with the little straps on her, the guy approaches her and says, "if you want out, you are going to have to work on your communication skills." She gives him a dirty look, and then you can see a huge hole, pre-cut in the glass, that she busts her hand through. See more...

Trivia

Zorg's desk and the accident with the cherry is a reference to the film Tintin and the Lake of Sharks, where Rastapopoulos has the same kind of problem. See more...

Entry In the Fifth Element who is it that removes Korben's name card from his door before Leeloo arrives? [It is Leeloo that takes it and places it on the door next to his.]
Entry What's the name of the song that plays at the end of the movie, when Korben and Leeloo are in the blue chamber? [The song is "Little light of Love" by Peter Gabriel and Thomas Dolby. Funnily enough it is the first track on the soundtrack.]
Entry When the 'survivor' is brought into the lab, it appears to me to be a Mondoshewan arm holding a lever of some sort. The Mondoshewans themselves aren't the fifth element so I must be wrong. So what is it? Is it the arm of the statue seen at the start? [I always took it be an arm in a space suit, or possibly some Mondoshewan armour.]
Entry Right after the opera scene when Willis is getting the stones his shirt has sleeves. When he exits the opera house his sleeves are ripped off and he has blood on him. Was there a deleted fight scene? [Within the proper movie he is shown ripping his sleeves off in order to wrap the stones.]
Entry I still don't know whether Leeloo is human or an alien. Can anyone explain her story for me? [Leeloo was originally human in some form; the Supreme Being label indicates that she's just an extremely advanced human. Her essence has resided on Earth for many thousands of years, but the Mondoshawans (aliens) remove her for safekeeping. She is reconstructed from the few cells remaining in the statue from the alien wreckage.]
Entry Does anyone know who does the voice of Korben Dallas' mother? [Jill Mullan.]
Entry When Zorg is on the phone with "Mr. Shadow", he gets very nervous and starts sweating. Then a black, gooey substance starts running down that nose...what is that? [It happens to everybody who speaks with Mr. Shadow, but it's never really explained what it is. I think it's only written something like "a brown substance" in the scenario.]
Entry Near the end of the movie, Corben asks Leeloo how the stones work. She says "fire burns, wind blows, rain falls..." and stops there. So what in the world does earth, the fourth stone, do? Something tells me she cuts off at that point because even the screenwriters were stumped on that one. [You are right. It was actually because they could not think of something for Earth. Funny eh?]
