Leon

Other mistake: When Leon enters the apartment building in the first shots he, needs to go up the stairwell in order to get to his apartment. But in the scene when Mathilda enters the building (after getting groceries while her parents got shot), she's right on the apartment floor without having to use the stairwell in the first place. (00:20:00 - 00:30:00)

Continuity mistake: Before the dreadlocked man starts looking at the vinyl records in the apartment, he places his uzi down with the butt facing the camera. In the next shot the barrel is facing the camera, and switches back again in the next shot.

Trivia: In the shot outside of Tony's restaurant, before the scene where we see him celebrating his birthday and being interrupted by Stansfield, you can see someone walking past the restaurant. That person is Luc Besson, the director of the movie.

Question: I was wondering about the title change from "Leon" to the "Professional". Was the title only changed in the U.S. and if so why?

Answer: According to IMDb.com the title was only changed in the United States and the reason why was maybe audiences would find the title, "The Professional" more appealing than "Leon."
