I watched this movie at the theater and just read an article about this movie and what Sharon Stone did. “The Kid,” which was played Leonardo DiCaprio and at the time, he was only 21 years old, (he looks more like a 13-year-old) and TriStar Pictures didn’t want him for the role. Sharon Stone, was a producer on the project, and she thought he was the best actor to audition for the part of The Kid. she was told that if she wanted him in the movie, she would have to pay him out of her own pocket. No surprise here, she paid him. DiCaprio was beyond grateful for the opportunity and has Sharon to thank. If she hadn’t paid him herself, would he have been cast in Titanic?
