Leeloo's (Milla Jovovich) screen-matched, light-up Multi Pass from Luc Besson's The Fifth Element. In a now-classic running gag, Leeloo flaunted her Multi Pass to board the Fhloston Paradise cruise ship as she searched for the elemental stones with Korben Dallas (Bruce Willis). Points of distress along the frame of this Multi Pass, as well as discolouration to the ID mounted inside the frame, screen-match it to the film and is believed to be the only version of this Multi Pass available to the public.
With its combination of richly imagined science-fiction and physical humor, The Fifth Element became among the most successful films of 1997, earning more than $260 million in global box office receipts as well as multiple Cesar Awards® in director Besson's native France. For her performance as the powerful but guileless Leeloo, Jovovich was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 1998 Saturn Awards®.
This Multi Pass is made of machined brass plate inset with an activation button and a custom-made ID card featuring printed images of a smiling Leeloo. Biometric information runs along the right side, with credit card and communications logos present at the bottom. The printed sections of the card are affixed to a styrene plate and fixed in place with adhesive. When depressed, the button activates a red LED situated on the frame. The Multi Pass exhibits chips in its metallic paint finish and some missing orange styrene affixed on the frame. Dimensions: 7.5 cm x 10 cm x 1 cm (3" x 4" x 0.5")
Contains electronics; see electronics notice in the Terms and Conditions.
Estimate: £45,000 - 90,000 Ω
