Spotlight

To get into the habit of blogging again, from now on I will be fornightly spotlighting an actor, musician or celebrity I reckon you should take a look at. And our first spotlighted person is...

  LEONARDO DICAPRIO

Hollywood's Leonardo DiCaprio is taken the film industry by storm with a string of fantastic films since 2006's war film, Blood Diamond which was made by Edward Zwick. Then came Scorsese's The Departed before moving onto spy film Body of Lies in 2008 alongside Russell Crowe and in the same year, he reunited with Kate Winslet in Revolutionary Road. He took year out before joining back up with Martin Scorsese to brilliantly bring Dennis Lehane's novel Shutter Island to life alongside an all star cast including the legendary Ben Kingsley. But Shutter Island hasn't been DiCaprio's only success of 2010. Next he teamed up with Dark Knight director Christopher Nolan to bring us the fantasticly mind bending sci-fi: Inception with the extremely talented Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

He's a had a fantastic four years and having observed his development as an actor since his starring roles in Romeo and Juliet(1996) and Titantic (1997) I can truely appreciate his magnicifent work. And with Clint Eastwood's Hoover to come next year, he's surely in line for his first Oscar!
