When Greta Gerwig was growing up in Sacramento, California, she was a very “intense” child, by her own admission. She was obsessed with Leonardo DiCaprio and carried a binder of pictures of him around with her wherever she went. The binder, labelled “pics of Leo” for organisational purposes, annoyed the rest of her family greatly, because it meant she kept draining the printer of all its ink and toner. Nevertheless, she continued her collection and made sure to kiss a picture of Leo every night before she went to sleep. Her obsession came to an abrupt halt, though, when she read in an interview that DiCaprio liked going out to clubs in LA with Tobey Maguire. “I remember thinking, ‘What will we have to talk about?’” she said in a 2016 Late Night interview.
