My mom recommened this movie a couple of years ago to me. It was pretty good.

Johnny Depp plays Gilbert Grape, just a young kid who has led his family ever since the departure of their father.

However Gilbert’s problems are harder than most. His town is going through major changes, and his little brother is not very smart mentally. He often gets into trouble when people aren’t watching him.

It’s a bit of a depressing tale, but I found it very interesting. DiCaprio and Depp play great roles in this movie.
