Leo couldn't deliver Mr. Martin Scorsese his Oscar with 'The Aviator', but I will go on record to say I will do so in 'The Departed'.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As a general rule, I don't plan to travel with my Oscars, but we may have to make an exception.
There's no really signature Leo DiCaprio role, like Jack Nicholson is Jack Nicholson no matter what movie he's in.
Martin Scorsese is one of the great filmmakers of all time.
Don't get me wrong: I would not say no to an Oscar!
I never planned to win an Oscar. When I auditioned for 'Ray,' I was just thinking about what a great project it would be.
Martin Scorsese, everything he does, I've got to see. And Jack Nicholson, I've got to see what he does.
I have my very own Oscar now to be with me until death us do part.
The Oscar made me a star, and I'm grateful. But I feel had I not won the Oscar I wouldn't have gotten into the messes I did in my personal life.
Scorsese would talk to me about this movie 'The Heiress' with Olivia de Havilland. We were talking about this scene in it, and suddenly we were rolling. It was very intentional, and I didn't realize - because we talk old movies all the time.
I guess I really haven't thought much about winning an Oscar, but if I had the opportunity, I'm sure I would like it.
