  • isn't it hard to believe that dicaprio was 19 or 18 when this was made? he seems like a baby

  • Leonardo DiCaprio really should have won an Academy Award for this. Upon first seeing it, it is hard to believe that he was acting, it feels like he really has a mental disability.

  • Leonardo DiCaprio is my favourite actor, he's amazing. His role in this would be so hard to act but he stays in character through the whole movie and at times you just forget it's him! No one could have played this part better than Leo.

  • ...and since most of them DONT look like Johnny Depp. LOL

  • Leo went full retard…but he's still sexy thumbs up if you agree! <3

  • Leo was robbed of an Oscar for this movie. His performance in this movie was brilliant.

  • It's so incredible how well Leonardo DiCaprio did in this movie. It's hard to play this type of character without making it seem fake. He should've won the award word this performance, because it was truly amazing & unforgettable.

  • one of the few shows I watch over again

  • He completely nailed this role, you want proof Leo's a great actor just watch What's Eating Gilbert Grape? and there lies your answer!

  • One of my favorite movies of all time....Leo is a fucking STUD!!

  • wait, that kid in the movies isn't really mentally challenged?!?!

  • @BerkeleyBuilt If you mean Leonardo DiCaprio. No he isn't mentally challenged.

  • @BerkeleyBuilt just an IINNNNNCREDIBLLLEEEE actor :D

  • @MCrocks2 really? does this child actor appear in any other movies?

  • @BerkeleyBuilt yeah many many many many, you can look him up on google: leonardo dicaprio imdb or something and probably find all of them, but he was in Titanic, Inception, Romeo + Juliet, basketball diaries - he's been in so many grrreat movies its almost impossible to mention them all (:

  • @MCrocks2 i'm an avid patron of movies, and i have to admit those titles you mentioned doesn't ring a bell with me.

  • @BerkeleyBuilt seriously? (im sorry but are u playing a joke or something, ?(: im sorry if u arent it just seems... :D ) not even TITANIC? (:

  • @MCrocks2 sorry if you think i'm joking, its sad i have never seen those films.

  • before "Gilbert Grape" don't forget "This Boys Life" also a great Leo performance! One of my favs.......

  • i feel stuped i didnt know who the cariters where till now an mi likes where right on the dot. love it!

  • LEO and JOHNNY FOREVER <3

  • Great !!!

    

  • Awesome movie!! I love this movie!! They r great & Julia shes great!!!

  • Awesome movie!! I love this movie!!

  • Leo looks like he's only 12.

  • This movie was amazing, I want to see another movie with Johnny Depp, and Leonardo Dicaprio together, that would be awesome. They are by far the two best actors without oscars and I can't wait until they both win one...or more than one, they are pretty amazing, lol ;)

  • Leo and Depp together is a dream *-----*

  • Johnny's beard has been done up for him playing Captin Jack Sparrow :')

  • Even as a retard hes hot xD

  • 3:30- is he talking about the right person....

  • 8 people don't have a jar of dirt!!

  • he sounds swedish

  • @SefoosRSProgress Lasse is Swedish...

  • @GodForAll321 It's her. She was really good. I saw it when i was really young. I thought she was actually mentally disabled.

  • Comment removed

  • @ChinchillasForever Yeah and they both will be forever young I mean Johnny is 48 and Leo is 37... and they still look fucking hot!!!

  • @ChinchillasForever its describe... i guess descripe is too hard to do lmfao

  • Leo was so so so convincing!!amazing performance he's soooo cute!! and Jhonny looks so handsome!! i so loved his hair and his eyes look so ...deep!! :O LOVED THEM BOTH,even though i think Leo is special in a lotta ways,so prodigious kid!

  • I remember the first time I watched "What's Eating Gilbert Grape", and I first saw Arnie Grape, I was like,"Is that Leonardo Di Caprio?...Wait no it's not...Wait..no..wait a minute.. yeah that's leonardo...no it can't be...NO YES IT IS!" cause usually when I think of Leonardo Di Caprio, I think of how he looked in Titanic, but I never saw him as a child actor. So the end credits came, and it said" Arnie Grape - Leonardo Di Caprio" me: "AHA! I KNEW IT!" XD This is a really good movie! (:

  • Right here, Leo reminds me of Justin Beiber... weird...

  • @EliseTjo Leo reminds me of the younger Jesse Mccarteney when he had long hair.

  • Tommy Lee Jones had absolutely NOTHING on Leonardo DiCaprio. Leo should've won. Bottom line.

  • @YourFakePromiseBand I loved Leo he was super in the role - so was Tommy in his role as Sheriff in The Fugitive. But that year, the Oscar SHOULD of gone to Ralph Finnes for his SUPERB role in Schindler's List as Amon Goeth (I'm speeling it wrong lol) But his acting was BRILLIANT - and he also did a German accent flawlessly. He SHOULD of won that year.

  • hey he in two movies with that girl at 0:36 there in whats eating gildert grape and basketball diaries lol i just noticed that cool

  • Leonardo was perfection in this movie and the mother was amazing for this being her very first movie you would never know it.

  • haha I like Jonny Depps Shirt.. aha :)

  • Leo was so cute!

  • leo and juliette lewis-both in this and basketball diaries-man are their roles different

  • darlin "that girl can be something" lmao

  • He always gets the cougars

  • *sob*

  • i can't believe they're Jack Dawson and Jack Sparrow , so different !!

  • Roy Desoto from Emergency! at 9:41

  • leo is cute even when he has mentally challenged lol leo DESERVED and oscar for this movie... his performance was PERFECT.. when i first saw it i really thought he was retared cuz i was like 13 and i never really saw leo in anything else yet and u know he is a great acter when u believe he really is that charcter..

  • Can you believe how gifted Leo is? It's so unfair that he hasn't earned an oscar yet. I'm so proud that we have such actors in our generation

  • Leo should have won the Academy Award. There were times I forgot it was Leonardo Dicaprio.

  • @Popteart i didn't even REALIZE it was leonardo dicaprio when i watched it! my friend told me halfway thru the movie, and i didn't believe her! i thought they had found some very talented disabled kid to play the part!

  • @silversunrise321 In my opinion, best portrayal of a mentally challenged individual in cinematic history.

  • @Popteart indeed.

  • This is an amazing film! Not gonna lie i do miss young Leo but my god he has gotten even hotter with age! Loved him from day one! <3

  • Leo is so cute in this movie!!!!! :D

    Haha my name is Becky. :3

    (obviously you can tell by my username :P)

  • awsome movie!

  • leo is amazing. that is all. <3

  • Johnny yummmm and cutie baby leo xxxxx

  • so what is eating gilbert grape?

  • I saw that film in ethics at the High school. The face of the girls watching her holy Leo was a poem

  • I haven't seen the movie but I intend to watching it soon. What did you think about that film?

  • @123Jenny90 I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WERE LOOKING FOR A RESPONSE FROM THE UPLOADER OR JUST PPL IN GENERAL, BUT THIS FILM WAS GREAT IN MY OPINION. YOU SHOULD SEE IT, LEO DECAPRIO'S PERFORMANCE WAS ON POINT.

  • @123Jenny90 GREAT MOVIE! U MUST WATCH IT!  LEONARDO WAS PERFECT IN IT!

  • Leo is a late bloomer, at 18 he looked like he's 13, now at 36 he is a really fine looking man!

  • wow jack sparrow lol

  • Ok was Johnny Depp's Interview taken during the filming of Pirates of The Carribean?? Or did he just happen to look like Captain Jack Sparrow!?!?

  • Young Leonardo cuter or young Justin Bieber? Your choice. I chose both.

  • @vicious321 Easy, LEO ALL THE WAY!

  • @vicious321 i say Leo, but they are both late bloomers

  • @vicious321 LEO!!! Mmm, he was a cutie back then, and he still is a major hunk ;)

  • @vicious321 well i think justin is cute... but thats really all he is. leo is soo cute in this movie but in other movies he does i think he is sooo hot and his performances just make him all that much gorgous. leonardo dicaprio all the way! well when he was young of course lol ;)

  • @vicious321 LEO, is that even a question? justin bieber cant even compare-not one bit. leo is the most gorgeous man on earth fsho

  • @vicious321 i dont ever want to hear justin bieber in the same sentence as my leo jk lol i really dont think justin can act in a simple role in csi let alone a complex role like arnie

  • it was real leo, it was real, don't worry bout that! ;)

  • thumbs up if american dad got you here

  • AHHH!!! depp's got the pirate goatee!!!!

  • @LoneSola I guess he was doing this in the middle of PotC filming?

  • is this the movie about the retaad?..

  • Man was it sad when Gil punched Arnie and Arnied just went silent and realized what happened... Then runned away.

  • Never go full retard, Leo..The Academy doensn't like it.

  • @massihdaking haha so so true...

  • this is such a great great great movie. i watched it like seven times or something (L)

  • Dad's dead! Dad's dead! Dad's dead! Dad's dead!

    Definitely one of the best movies ever written.

  • you know that something is wrong with this world when leonardo didn't get an oscar for his character in this movie

  • @NelluNellu yessss

  • @NelluNellu or for God's sakes at least a nomination...

  • @NelluNellu I know I mean come on this is such a great movie and Leo was wondeful in it!!! but there's nothing wrong with the world, it's the people in it O_O"

  • @NelluNellu Completely agreed.

  • @NelluNellu Well, he was nominated...

  • @MrEatbeef Yes, but he didn't get one, and i wrote "when leo didnt get an oscar" :)

  • @NelluNellu Yeah but you sound like he was not even praised for his acting, which not happened. I agree through, he should have won that oscar

  • @NelluNellu He went full retard. You never go full retard.

  • @SabbraCadabra que?

  • @NelluNellu Go watch Tropic Thunder. You'll understand where i'm coming from. :)

  • @SabbraCadabra But I don't want to watch Tropic Thunder, saw the beginnign once and it's a really really bad movie. So no, :)

  • @NelluNellu so so so so so so so true!

  • Comment removed

  • @NelluNellu Never go full retard...

  • @NelluNellu I agree with you but at least he got nominated

  • @NelluNellu amen to that!!!

  • @NelluNellu Oscars doesn't make an actor great.

  • my goodness! i love this movie!

  • "it's a praying mantis... you know how they mate? The male will sneak up on the female and she'll bite off his head... and the rest of his body'll keep on mating. And then when they're done... she'll eat him. She'll eat the rest of him...Grandma we have company... so do you wanna eat?"

    I laughed so hard. And yes... I do have this much time on my hands... >.>

  • is the movie different from the book ? pleaseeeeeeee someone answer

  • that mary steenburgen seems to luv sleeping with young boys lol

    johnny depp and ian somerhalder

  • I dont even know how many times I've watched this movie..Definately one of my favourites.

  • stop comparing this character with jack sparrow... -_-;; Jack is nothing compared to Gilbert.... Gilbert is better...WAY better....

  • this is the first time i see Depp play a normal character with hidden emotion. His movies tht I already watched are pirates of the carribean, seceret window, tourist, sweeney todd, scissorhand.. and i saw Jack Sparrow in those movies.

  • This is very interesting and useful for my film studies work

  • Proof Arnie :(

  • johnny is 100% jack sparrow :)

    look at his hands :P

  • This is one of the best movies of all time! :) I love it...

  • Leo was so cute =)

  • HOLY CRAP IT'S CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW!

  • @MortalKombat773 When i saw it i was like OH MY GOD but then i was like oh its just johnny

  • why's he dressed as jack sparrow ??

  • this was filmed about 2 miles from my land in a little town called Maxwell Texas. Maxwell has not changed that much since the filming.

  • Aside from the beauty of Juliette Lewis' acting in this one,her free spirit (which makes me want to travel the land and live in a trailer) - I thought I never saw a woman as fragile and beautiful as Darlene.You can see all the beauty of all the love in the world when you just look in her eyes-breaks my heart everytime.Actingwise-this movie is a masterpiece,period.

  • Definately one of my favorite movie of all time!

  • leo was robbed of his oscar.

    speaking of which, why doesn't he have an oscar yet?

  • @lisamaree02,

    Because the Oscars were idiots that year and gave Tommy lee Jones the Oscar for playing an annoying, wooden cop.

  • heads down for DiCaprio's performance in this movie. It's just stunning.

  • Id never heard or seen leonardo when i first saw this movie in the mid 90's. I thought that kid really was retarded. Thats good acting.

  • leonarda had so much talent even from such a young age. i feel like he hasn't changed much at all, eveything from his voice to his personality then to the way he approaches his work etc etc.

  • they should deluxe this movie with documentary and commentary and a big huge ass poster!!it reminds me of texas alot

  • It still makes you cry

  • Leo IS BEAST!!!

  • Johnny Depp AND Leonardo DiCaprio in the same movie!!!!! yay! lol

  • "What do you say Arnie?"

    "Oh, thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

    I <3 Arnie! :D

  • can anyone tell me what was eating gilbert grape?

  • @Nextraker - his life, in general.

  • leo looks sooo cute and adorable in this movie..awww...and jonny! WELL! he just had a paper saying FINE stapeled on his forehead.this is such an awesome movie.my favorite of all time

  • leonardo is such an amazing actor.

    and so effing cute!

  • leo has always been a cutie, but in this movie..

    johnny is a sexy beast!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • people do not realize how hard it is to pull off a character like arny its just amazing to watch him and johnny two both amazing actors act together in a movie

  • 4:46

    "eventually you face is going to get wrinkley

    you get gray hair, your boobs might sag

    ya know, so what- its what you do that really matters"

  • whoa.. i didn't realize there was like a 10 year gap between them til now! nooo depp's getting old

  • okay so.. leo need's an oscar RIGHT NOW!!

  • Leonardo DiCaprio was ADORABLE in this!!! 

  • Two of my favorite actors are Johnny Depp and Leo DiCaprio, this film is simply a masterpiece! They both were just great!

  • how old was leo in this? omg he was adorable X3

  • @NemiChan1 19

  • @NemiChan1 I think he was 18 or a little under

  • @moviehypno23 he was 19 in this movie, but he looked like he just... 14, 15 or younger:)

  • @BeatOfAngel2901 When they shot it he was 17. The movie come oit when he was 18-19

  • I wonder what would happen if Leo is in Pirate Of The Carribean. Two brilliants actors in one swash buckling film.

  • When he is in his POTC gear with his beard and bandanna, It was weird seeing him talking american

  • This is one of my all time favorite Johnny Depp movies. Leo Decaprio play this role so well which made me follow his work as an actor ever since.

  • Hey John C Reilly is in this movie.

  • @DoNotBeHighandMighty yeah so is the chick that played in stepbrothers with him .............dale and nancy

  • mary steenberg is always sleeping with younger guys, Life as a House too

  • Leo is the best actor alive!!!!!!!

  • omg my 2 fav actors in one film!!! JOHNNY DEPP AND LEONARDO DiCAPRIO

  • awww i would luv to hang out with arnie grape :)

  • Johnny Depp looks so damn gorgeous/beautiful!!! <3

  • Great movie!

    Omg i love it ,

    Leo's best roll ever !!

  • leonardo dicaprio is my favorite actor and he deserves an academy award. He's won a lot of the best actors out there and deserves more awards than he received. He's been nominated a lot of times but he should have won the awards. He's way better then most of the actors getting academy award!!

  • @Kiddcinema17 totally agree...

    

  • arnie=awesome

  • Johnny + Leonardo= ADORABLE BEASTS

  • LEO soo fit

  • I can't believe Leo didn't get an oscar for this. His performance was absolutely outstanding in this, and certainly his finest performance.

  • @xXIslandOfWonderXx no kidding.... why on earth did tommy lee jones do that made his performance better than Leo's? ...what was so demanding about his role in The Fugitive? nothing...woop dee doo for him.

  • @xXIslandOfWonderXx I agree! it was so good that when i first saw it, not knowing at first it was Leo, i actually believed that he really was challenged! He did a great job!!!!!

  • @xXIslandOfWonderXx He went full retard, you never go full retard.
