Leonardo DiCapriorder

This month we dive into Don’s Plum (2001), the black-and-white indie directed by R.D. Robb that Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire tried to keep off U.S. screens! 😱 Was it an artistic experiment or just a Hollywood hangout that got out of hand? 🚬💭 Join us as we break down the behind-the-scenes drama, the diner, and the improv chaos of it all to see whether this banned-in-the-USA film is worth the watch!

Take a trip to paradise (or is it?) with Danny Boyle's 'The Beach' (2000) 🌊, where we follow Leonardo DiCaprio’s search for a hidden utopia, fueled by the unforgettable 90s electronic soundtrack that sets the vibe perfectly. From secret maps and beach bungalows to a video game scene that throws us out of reality, we unpack the film’s sun-soaked, adrenaline-filled journey! 🏝️🌞🌊

This month, we’re diving into 'Celebrity' (1998), Woody Allen’s glitzy black-and-white satire that wades through the shallow end of fame. Leonardo DiCaprio drops in for a wild ten-minute cameo that has us asking: does his scene alone make it worth watching? 🎬✨

In this episode, we dive into the drama, deception, and double DiCaprios of Randall Wallace's 'The Man in the Iron Mask' (1998). From royal power plays to brotherly betrayal, we break down the film’s big moments, standout performances and what makes this underrated musketeer tale still worth watching (if two Leonardo DiCaprios is not enough)!⚔️🎬

Get ready to set sail and dive into a heart-wrenching journey through Titanic (1997), James Cameron's iconic film that made us all "never let go" of our love for Jack and Rose. Join us as we dive deep into the drama, romance, and icy waters whilst we break down why Titanic continues to steal our hearts. Grab your life jacket and tune in—it's gonna be a wild ride! 🎬🚢💔

After (quite a big) break, WE ARE BACK with a catchup bonus episode! So, get ready to join us on our continued journey, where we will be reviewing every Leondaro DiCaprio film in chronological order!

O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo? Parting is such sweet sorrow…but we are BACK on Leo’s birthday with William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet (1996) directed by Baz Luhrmann. Join us and our special guest Millie Jones on a romantic journey, from spectacular costumes to real-life storms and shocking sudden deaths, as we explore the life of the Capulets and the Montagues.

In this whirlwind of an episode, we have a very special guest (our fabulous childhood friend Ellie Purvis, shout-out to you) joining us on a journey from Paris to Germany and back multiple times as we discuss ‘Total Eclipse’ (1995) directed by Agnieszka Holland! Alongside Leonardo DiCaprio who plays young poet Arthur, we have David Thewlis, Romane Bohringer and many more who come together in this surprising erotic historic drama, which happens to have crazy links to many other films…

Join us on an adventure around New York with a basketball in one hand and something to smoke in the other as we dive off a cliff into episode 7, 1995's 'The Basketball Diaries' - based on the story of Jim Carrol and directed by Scott Kalvert! Leonardo DiCaprio is not the only player in the game; he is joined with Mark Wahlberg, Juliette Lewis and so many more - even Jim Carrol himself at one point!

Aaand hello 2021! To kick start the year, we ventured into the wild wild west with 1995's 'The Quick and the Dead' directed by Sam Raimi! Leo's 6th feature film is packed with dusty, golden-hour scenes, smokin' bullet holes, and a great cast of Sharon Stone, Russell Crowe and Gene Hackman.

Join us as we blast into our 5th and final episode of 2020: 1994’s ‘The Foot Shooting Party’ directed by Annette Haywood-Carter, where we find a budding teenage lead singer Leo having to make a large holey sacrifice of a decision for the well-being of his band. You won’t want to miss this banging adventure of a film!

We are back with Leo's next feature film, This Boy's Life (1993) directed by Michael Caton-Jones - a biographical coming-of-age drama set in the 1950's based on the memoir of Tobias Wolf.
