Someone once opined that a person who has had a charmed life like Leo can never be a truly great actor.
I think there is alot to be said for that.
You have to have some personal trauma to draw on if you want to be great.
Leo never struggled a day in his entire life.
Not his fault. He is as good as a golden boy can be!

I'm sure Brando had the life struggles that.most of us go through.
' Trauma' doesn't necessarily mean some.horrible tragedy.
Leo is very good but I don't think he could ever channel the deep emotional reserves that someone like Al Pacino could.
But, that's just my take - I studied Method acting for awhile.

Favorite Leo performances? Mine are:
Catch Me If You Can
Gangs of New York
[I didn't pay much attention to him until 2002.]
The Departed
Shutter Island
Inception
[Shutter and Inception are his two great ones for me, and in both he's haunted by a dead wife.]
The Great Gatsby
Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood
[the absence of Titanic is intentional - can't stand that movie. I still would like to see his early What's Eating Gilbert Grape, though.]
GANGS OF NY?!
Even his admirers are down on the film

The film is a mixed bag, but it and Catch Me If You Can were the first two films that made me sit up and take notice of Leo for the first time.

You overlook his best film, TITANIC, in favor of a mediocrity like GONY

TITANIC sucked big-time, oh my gosh. What an obnoxious piece of whale blubber. I didn't even like the score, and I'm probably the biggest James Horner fan on this site!

Still part of the p*ssy posse?
Don's Plum still shamefully unavailable on DVD/Blu-Ray?
" Shamefully" or " thankfully"?

Oh? Does Fearless also feature people from 1912 speaking in 1990s rhythms and jargon?
