As many of you here know, DiCaprio got his big break in later episodes of the hit 1980s sitcom Growing Pains as Luke Brower, a homeless teenager taken in by the Seaver family at the start of the Fall 1991 TV season.

Putting his big break aside, my absolute personal favorite performance of DiCaprio was as Howard Hughes in the hit 2004 Martin Scorcese film The Aviator, because I thought he did an accurate portrayal of how Hughes let his OCD (which unfortunately wasnt diagnosed until after his April 5, 1976 death of kidney failure, at age 70, en route to a hospital in Houston, Texas) get the best of him to the point where he walked on tissue boxes for the rest of his life.

I agree. I thought Leo should have won an Oscar for his portrayol of Howard Hughes.
