À propos de ce film

Gilbert Grape (Johnny Depp) is a young man trapped in an eccentric family in a small town. He works hard to care for a developmentally disabled teenage brother, Arnie (played brilliantly by Leonardo DiCaprio), an incredibly overweight mother, and to maintain a house falling down around their ears. He is also battling to sustain a relationship with an older married woman. Can the nice new girl in town (Juliette Lewis) rescue Gilbert, now at his wits end with Arnie's stubborn antics? Through it all, the centre of Gilbert's life remains his selfless, fatherly bond with his younger brother. Brilliantly directed by Lasse Hallstrom (Chocolat, My Life as a Dog), this quirky, whimsical and touching drama stars heartthrobs Johnny Depp and Leonardo DiCaprio in one of their best-loved roles, with DiCaprio receiving a best actor Oscar® nomination (five years before Titanic) for a film that made him a star. © 1993 PARAMOUNT PICTURES.

Notes et avis

Outstanding. Depp, Lewis and Di Caprio were stand-outs. Another great 90s film. But why can't Hollywood seem to make films like this anymore?

This Leonardo DiCaprio and Johnny Depp movie really touched my heart tlwith the relationship between them, but it also gives u a proper perspective of what it is like to have a mentaly chalanged child, but it is just adorbs. Especially cuz Leo's in it.

Can only watch it on android devices though, would be better if you could watch on anything
