In this episode, the Retro Movie Geek crew are geeking out over La Femme Nikita (1990) and a flawed, but strong female character the original vs. the American version the dark side of Hollywood, and the "industry" and much, much more! Synopsis: Internationally acclaimed director, Luc Besson, delivers a tour de force with his action packed story of Nikita, a ruthless street junkie, whose killer instincts could make her the perfect weapon. Recruited against her will into a secret government organization by a sadistic man known only as Bob, Nikita is broken and remade. In three years, Bob transforms her into a sexy, sophisticated "lethal weapon" named Josephine. Released from the training compound, Nikita establishes a new identity, and soon falls in love with Marco, a soft spoken romantic. Six months later... she gets a call! She's been activated! From that moment, Nikita is caught in a web of intrigue and murder - trapped in a double life as Marco's lover and Bob's hired gun. The thrilling, provocative climax makes "La Femme Nikita" one of the most shocking, and intelligent, espionage adventures ever! ...........................................................................................
