Well, in my religion, the Fifth Element is Spirit, or Ether, which is 
transcendent. But in the movie, I got the impression that *she*, being the 
supreme being, was the fifth element herself. Oh well. I only saw it once, so 
I couldn't tell you. :)
I did enjoy the movie, tho, it seemed to me there was one screwy line in 
there... Umm... The supreme being, she learns English from scanning the 
dictionary (encyclopedia?), right? And late in the movie, she makes some 
comment to Bruce Willis about only getting to V so far. And he says something 
to the effect of, "There are some nice words in W." And she says, "Like 
What?"  Ah wellz, I guess she picked up "what" from somewhere else. 
ANYWAYZ...
