Edgar, Gatsby, The Wolf of Wall Street, The Revenant, Catch me if you can, Gangs of New York (great), Blood Diamond (SUPERB SUPERB - about the illegal diamond smuggling and death to African forced slavery) Inception, Aviator (again range from young to insanity of Howard Hughes at the end), The Man in the Iron Mask (must see) This boys life (heartbreaking and he is so young) and of course Romeo and Juliet. The Quick and the Dead (Sharon Stone paid for his Salary as she wanted him in it after seeing him in the Titanic- TriStar Pictures did not want him) (he was 21) To quote: """"""""""She said, "In my opinion he was the only one who came in and cried, begging his father to love him as he died in the scene."""""""""""""""""

After knowing all the story of Johnny Depp, how her mom abused him and all his brothers and even his father and how he had to go through a lot of bad things since he was a little kid, the character of Gilbert Grape reminds me a lot of his own personal history. I know Gilbert wasn’t abused, but he had also a very hard and difficult life and had to take care of himself almost his whole life, like Johnny. I’m almost sure he saw himself reflected on Gilbert too when he did the movie
