Leonardo
Wilhelm DiCaprio's parents hung a painting above his crib in the grotty
1970s East Hollywood neighborhood of Los Angeles when he was a baby. The painting
wasn't an action shot of Peter Rabbit or Curious George. No, it was a
reproduction of Dutch painter Hieronymus Bosch's three-paneled "Garden of
Earthly Delights," a dystopian visual description of Eden being found and
lost. It is one of DiCaprio's earliest memories.
"You literally see Adam and Eve being given
paradise," says DiCaprio, his blue eyes peering above sunglasses in a
Miami Beach restaurant that has somehow worked "SoHo" into its name.
Underneath the table he fidgets his feet in and out of canvas loafers. He
drifts away for a moment. DiCaprio just finished shooting an interview for a
-climate-change film he's making. (Original working title: Are We Fucked?) He's
already been to India flood plains and the Antarctica polar cap, and now he's
not far from Miami playgrounds where he once reputedly left a nightclub with
every woman from his VIP section. All, according to DiCaprio, could be washed
away.
