Hollywood's fastest rising star, Leonardo DiCaprio (Titanic, Celebrity), gives an electrifying performance as the criminally rebellious son in this funny and stirring tale of one family's humor and heartache. Seventeen years ago, fiercely independent Lee ((Meryl Streep - One True Thing) left home…and left behind her kindhearted sister Bessie (Diane Keaton - The First Wives Club) to care for their father, Marvin (Hume Cronyn). But now Lee is returning with her teenage son (Leonard DiCaprio) for a homecoming that's sure to turn the entire household upside down! Also starring Robert DeNiro(Casino), this entertaining motion picture proves that people you know the least may be the ones you need the most!
