- DirectorLasse HallströmStarsJohnny DeppLeonardo DiCaprioJuliette LewisA young man in a small Midwestern town struggles to care for his mentally-disabled younger brother and morbidly obese mother while attempting to pursue his own happiness.This beautiful story is often neglected by the common film-enthusiasts. What DiCaprio does in this film is beyond imagination. For an unknown 18 year old it´s truly remarkable. He plays Arnie, a mentally disable teenager who lives with his two sisters, big brother and a morbidly obese mother. Cinema-visitors who didn´t knew who this actor was thought they had used a mentally disabled person to portray the role, but it was Leo all along. And it´d secure him his first Oscar nod.

With this one he really established himself as one of Hollywoods greats.
