"The most gripping coming-of-age movie since Stand By Me." -Pat Collins, WWOR-TV/New York

For Toby Wolff and his divorced mom Caroline, 1950s life wasn’t all fun and games. These two free spirits and cross-country travelers settle in the Pacific Northwest, where life will be better. They hope.

This Boy's Life, the Wolffs' true story, "is every boy's life," the Los Angeles Times' Kenneth Turan wrote. The dynamic teaming of Robert De Niro (Analyze This, Meet the Parents), Ellen Barkin (the Big Easy, Sea of Love) and Leonardo DiCaprio (Titanic, Gangs of New York) sparks this funny, touching slice-of-life drama that pits rebellious teen Toby (DiCaprio) against his tyrannical new stepfather Dwight (De Niro). Directed by Michael Caton-Jones (Memphis Belle, City by the Sea), This Boy's Life is one to remember.
