      Luc Besson has always sucked (though that did not prevent him to do a few good movies indeed).

      And the fingers of one hand aren’t enough to count the number of rape allegations against him.

      He started dating the second of his four wives when he was 31 and she was 15.

          Yeah the wife in question, Maïwenn was also the alien diva in the Fifth Element.

          Wikipedia:

          Maïwenn met film director Luc Besson when she was 12 and he was 29, and they began dating when she was 15. In January 1993, at age 16, she gave birth to their daughter Shanna.[1][6] On the DVD extras for the 1994 film Léon: The Professional, Maïwenn said the film is based on her relationship with Besson.[7] She was 20 at the beginning of filming (early 1996) for The Fifth Element, during which Besson left her for the film's star, Milla Jovovich.[8]

          She then became a director. Her biggest success, « Polisse », is about the workers in the Child Protection Unit of Paris Police.
