The Oscar nominated movie that I think that the actors all played their parts extremely well especially Leonardo DiCaprio playing Arnie Grape, a teenager with learning difficulties and Johnny Depp playing Arnie's brother, Gilbert Grape, the eldest son of a family of five including an obese mother, a deceased father a bratty sister, his sometimes supportive sister and Arnie.
