Review of What's Eating Gilbert Grape (1993) by Tofi L — 18 Oct 2013
What a performance by Leonardo. As much as I dislike the majority of his roles this alongside Basketball Diaries defines him amongst the elite.
In a secondary role, Depp does a wonderful job in portraying the strife of raising a family in turmoil. The emotion felt in his struggle to balance the care of his autistic brother (Di Caprio) and lard-ass mom is memorable.
This truly is two performances for the ages.
