LEO SAYS HE THINKS OF HIS MOM WHEN HE HAS TO CRY ON SCREEN


BOP Magazine

Oh Romeo: Few fans know it, but Leo often uses Irmelin for inspiration when he has to do his most emotional scenes in his films. He’s said that whenever he has to cry on camera, he thinks of his mom being hurt and his eyes well up with tears. Remember that scene in William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet where Leo sobs over Claire’s dead body? Now you know that it wasn’t necessarily Claire whom Leo was really crying about-perhaps it was his mommy!
