Life isn’t easy for Gilbert Grape: when his father dies, he has to put his dreams on hold to take care of his overweight mother, two sisters and an autistic brother in a small, Midwestern town. But when a mysterious girl moves to town with her grandparents, Gilbert’s life begins to change.

A spectacularly warm and enchanting coming-of-age film, What’s Eating Gilbert Grape manages to explore seismic events and small-town life without slipping into tragedy. And then there’s the ensemble cast: Leonardo DiCaprio, Johnny Depp in the titular role, and the always wonderful Juliette Lewis.
