Leonardo DiCaprio On Shutter Island

Leo talks Scorsese, Inception, Inglourious Basterds and more...



ON INCEPTION: "It's more of  a science-fiction psychological kind of thriller… It has a heist genre to it, but it’s set within the human mind.

"It’s one of those movies that I wouldn’t be able to describe if I sat here for 20 minutes because it works on a lot of different… I hate to use that term, again, but it’s true, this film literally works on different levels.”




ON WHY HE WASN’T IN INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS:
“I had the script, but I don’t think there was ever an official offer.

I think it was The Jew Hunter, but Tarantino ended up wanting to go with a German-speaking actor.”
