In the previous article, I introduced that Little Plum won the Best Supporting Actor Award at the 66th Academy Awards and the Film "Different Skies" nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the 51st American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards, this movie allowed Little Plum to find a goal, and he began to pick this unusual role to play.
In 1995, Leonardo created a character for a drug-addicted writer with a distinct personality in The Edge Diary. Released in the United States on April 21, 1995, The Edge Diary is a drama film directed by Scott Calvert and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Lonan Breco, and James Madeo.
Leonardo plays Jim, a rebellious teenager who was invincible in the high school basketball league but was pushed into the abyss by drugs. His rebellious personality gradually led him to the road of no return, unwilling to let anyone interfere in his life, not listening to anyone's advice, and even holding a gun to his own teacher. He felt that no one understood him, so he had to write down everything in his heart as a diary.
The film shows the audience a difficult, tense, painful picture, the story of drugs, growth and survival is told, so that the audience can fit in, the whole film is actually not a novel theme, but Leonardo's character portrayal is very good, his performance promotes the storyline very well, and it is recognized by many people.
