Amazon.com: Robert De Niro gets top billing, but young Leonardo DiCaprio is the revelation of This Boy's Life, an astute, often painful drama of growing up in the 1950s Pacific Northwest, based on the autobiographical novel by Tobias Woolf. DiCaprio plays Tobias, a good kid with a bad boy streak but an unwavering love for his divorced mother (Ellen Barkin). "I want to be a better boy," he promises from under a greasy pompadour, and tries to prove it when she marries single father Dwight (DeNiro), a bully who parents through intimidation and humiliation. DiCaprio is magnetic in his first starring role, full of anger, hope, and confusion as he drifts back to juvenile delinquency, and his intensity gives the true story of survival and triumph its charge. DeNiro is frightening and pathetic as Dwight, and Dwight's youngest daughter is played by future star and vampire slayer Eliza Dushku. --Sean Axmaker

In this film, Robert DeNiro plays an earnest widower who makes the terrible mistake of marrying a single mother and taking in her poorly behaved son. Providing a home and support for this aging woman when other men used her as an old tissue. Thank goodness I live with MOTHER!!

Dicaprio is short of geneious in his roll of Abused Son...De Nerio, one of my favorites ,is very good in his roll too, but is much upstaged by Dicaprio, who at a very young age, gave probably, besides Tiatnic, and Whats eating gilbert Grape, a very demanding and concvining performance ever. What was most amazing was how young Dicaprio appears at the beginging of the movie. I swear it looks like the Director filmed this movie with a Real couple of years in between, so we could watch Dicaprio gently ... Read More

This was a very haunting, sometimes very difficult story to watch unfold on screen. When it came out, I had never heard of Leonardo DiCaprio, but I wasn't alone as this was only his second or third time on screen. Anyway, he certainly gave a powerful performance and served notice he was going to be a "big name" actor.
Basically, it's about teenage kid and his mom trying to survive the mean father-husband of the family in a small town during the 1950s. Robert De Niro plays the dad and Ellen ... Read More

This is a true story about Tobias Wolffe. He is a boy who's mother is raising him alone, and he spends most of his days with his buddies, and getting into trouble while she's at work. His mother doesn't know what else to do with him, so she marries a man, whom she feels would be a good example to him. This is when she decides to send poor Tobias to stay with her new boyfriend to see if he can straighten him out (prior to their marriage). He is very strict, and down right mean to Tobias, but is always nice ... Read More
