ZandraJoi Posted June 6, 2021 Posted June 6, 2021 Now this is an older movie, but definitely a classic. Leonardo DiCaprio played the mentally challenged son beautifully. I remember a friend telling me when she watched it when it first came out that she was impressed with the performance & you would have never known it was the same actor who played in the later years of Growing Pains. I think it’s a simple yet deep movie touching on family love for each other. What are your thoughts?
The Blackangel Posted June 6, 2021 Posted June 6, 2021 Johnny Depp has always been a god to me, and his performance in the movie was so captivating that I never wanted it to end. I'm a drama nut as it is, and this was one of his absolute best roles ever, hands down.
killamch89 Posted June 7, 2021 Posted June 7, 2021 I've never watched this movie before if I'm being honest but your review of it makes me want to watch it. I'll make sure to write it down somewhere so that I definitely check it out.

Leonardo DiCaprio is awesome in basically everything he's ever in.
