Leonardo DiCaprio citations

Leonardo DiCaprio [ˈliːoʊnɚdoʊ dɪˈkæprioʊ], né le 11 novembre 1974 à Los Angeles, est un acteur, scénariste et producteur de cinéma américain.

Grandissant dans les quartiers populaires de Los Angeles tels que Los Feliz puis Hollywood, le jeune Leonardo DiCaprio prend comme modèle le fils de sa belle-mère Peggy Ann Saunders, Adam Farrar, qui commence dès l'enfance une carrière d'acteur. Il décide alors de se lancer lui aussi, encouragé par ses parents. Il montre rapidement un talent évident pour la comédie et se voit proposer des rôles à la télévision, puis au cinéma. Après avoir été choisi parmi de très nombreux candidats pour jouer face à son acteur préféré Robert De Niro dans Blessures secrètes en 1993, il se fait particulièrement remarquer la même année grâce à son film suivant, Gilbert Grape, où il incarne face à Johnny Depp un jeune garçon déficient intellectuel, rôle pour lequel il est nommé à l'Oscar du meilleur acteur dans un second rôle à l'âge de 19 ans.

Après plusieurs films dans le circuit indépendant, Leonardo DiCaprio est découvert en 1996 par le grand public dans l'adaptation moderne et rock d’une pièce de Shakespeare : Roméo + Juliette. Un an plus tard, il devient une star planétaire en incarnant le héros romantique Jack Dawson dans Titanic, un des plus gros succès de l'histoire du cinéma et l'un des films les plus oscarisés avec 11 statuettes. Sa carrière prend alors un nouveau tournant dans les années 2000, durant lesquelles il travaille pour les plus grands réalisateurs et devient le nouvel acteur fétiche de Martin Scorsese - comme a pu l'être Robert De Niro dans les années 1970-1990 - à l'affiche de cinq de ses films : Gangs of New York, Aviator, Les Infiltrés, Shutter Island et Le Loup de Wall Street. Il remporte de nombreuses récompenses tout au long de sa carrière pour des films tels que Aviator, Blood Diamond, Arrête-moi si tu peux, J Edgar, Django Unchained ou encore Le Loup de Wall Street. Mais ce n'est qu'en février 2016, qu'il remporte pour la première fois l'Oscar du meilleur acteur, pour son interprétation de Hugh Glass dans The Revenant.

Parallèlement à ses métiers dans le cinéma, Leonardo DiCaprio est également connu pour son fort engagement en faveur de l'écologie avec sa « Fondation Leonardo DiCaprio ». Il a lié ses deux activités en écrivant et produisant le film documentaire La Onzième heure, le dernier virage, sur le thème du réchauffement climatique. Wikipedia

“I lived in Hollywood and, ironically, I didn't know you could just go out and get an agent and go on auditions and try and become an actor, I thought it was like a Masonic thing, like a blood line you had to belong to - until I was 13. Then I realised what you had to do. It is the one thing I know I want to do for the rest of my life.”

“Well it's a risk to do a movie of this calibre on a subject matter and a point in history people are not very familiar with. It's a tough subject to sell - so salary-wise you have to make sacrifices to make a certain film happen. I would have been an idiot to pass up the opportunity to work with Mr Scorsese.”

“I’ve been in the business since I was 16, so I’ve had a 14-year career. I’ve always had acting in my blood. Doing this, whatever it is, was something I was drawn to since my earliest memories. Ironically, I lived in Hollywood, but never understood that all it took was getting an agent and being persistent.”

“His two eyes are different," says Lasse Hallstrom, who directed Leo in what may be his best movie, What's Eating Gilbert Grape. "The left eye is very soft and empathetic. The right eye is more analyzing. One eye oozes warmth, while the other is more penetrating. One eye is psyche, the other is intellect.”

“I don't really have many extravagances. I don't fly private jets and I don't have bodyguards and I don't buy crazy things. I have a couple of houses here and there. I bought a very expensive watch, and I am going to buy a really expensive movie poster, the original for The Thief of Bagdad (1940). I love movie posters.”

“My mom and I lived at Hollywood and Western, a drug-dealer and prostitute corner. It was pretty terrifying. I got beat up a lot. I saw people have sex in the alleys. I remember I was five years old, and this guy with a trench coat, needles and crack cornered me. Early on, seeing the devastation on my block, seeing heroin addicts, made me think twice about ever getting involved in drugs. It's evil. Once you take that step and experiment, drugs can take over your life. You are not yourself anymore. That's something I never wanted. I didn't have a lot of friends growing up. It was kind of just me and my parents. But because of them, the neighborhood did not have a bad effect on me. My dad introduced me to artists, and every few months we'd go to some hippie doo-dah parade as Mudmen in our underwear, carrying sticks and covered in mud. My mother did everything to get me into the best schools she could find.”

“It was pretty disheartening to be objectified like that. I wanted to stop acting for a little bit. But it changed my life in a lot of ways, but at the same time, I can't say that it didn't give me opportunities. It made me, for the first time, in control of my career.”
