The actor revealed new facets of his talent.
Titanic was the biggest film of 1997. It was this film that made Leonardo DiCaprio famous. Viewers around the world wept as they watched the fate of Jack and Rose. But if James Cameron had given the actor free rein, the picture could have turned out much more positive.
Young DiCaprio often improvised during the filming of Titanic. A behind-the-scenes video has leaked online. One of the crew members briefs the actors, shouting commands. And at the same time, Leonardo standing next to him repeats his words and makes hilarious faces. Those present could not help but laugh.
If the artist decided to go into the comedy genre, perhaps he could compete with Jim Carrey himself. And he would have received an Oscar much earlier. But, alas, such scenes did not correspond to the serious nature of the picture and the director cut them out.
