Leonardo DiCaprio is synonymous with success, since the actor's career began at a very young age, thus leaving him with a great career and a lot of experience. And although fans classify him as one of the best actors in the film industry, it was very difficult for him to obtain an Oscar Award, the award given by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to honor the work of actors, actresses, editors, directors, scriptwriters, visual artists, audio designers, set designers, etc.
Precisely for this reason, there has been a lot of controversy that has been generated around the lack of recognition of Leo DiCaprio by one of the most important events of the year in the world of cinema.

Which movie gave Leonardo DiCaprio the Oscar?
But before going to the list of movies in which we believe Leo shone, we are going to tell you about the one that did give him the award, since it was also proudly directed by a Mexican.
It is about The Revenant or El Renacido by Alejandro G. Iñárritu. The tape was released in December 2015 and was produced, written, and directed by the Mexican. It is the adaptation of the novel by Michael Punke, which describes the experiences of the explorer Hugh Glass in 1823.
Romeo + Juliet (1996)
This 90's film directed by Baz Luhrmann and filmed in some parts of Mexico, is the living history of Shakespeare's classic. Since this appearance, Leo demonstrated his great gift for acting in stories that include drama in between.
Titanic (1997)
You have to accept it, the film considered one of the highest-grossing in history should have given Leonardo DiCaprio recognition, and even though the film had several Oscar nominations and even won eleven, the actor did not win the Best Actor award. because they didn't even nominate him, they just nominated Kate Winslet, who also didn't take home the award.
The Wolf of Wall Street (2013)
The Martin Scorsese-directed film tells the story of Jordan Belfort, a New York broker convicted of stock market manipulation and money laundering.
Here Leo was nominated for Best Actor at the Oscars, but he didn't win it.
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019)
Another movie where Leonardo DiCaprio was also nominated for an Oscar, but he didn't take it home. Directed by Quentin Tarantino, the film tells the life of Hollywood actor Rick Dalton (DiCaprio), and his friend and stunt double, Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt). Like a wink and a low hand, in parallel, part of the story of Sharon Tate (Margot Robbie) and the members of the Charles Manson sect was told.
Finally, it should be noted that Leonardo DiCaprio was also nominated for Best Actor at the Oscars in the films The Aviator, and Blood Diamond, but he did not take them. What he did win was some Golden Globes for The Aviator and The Revenant and The Wolf of Wall Street. Well.
