Danny Boyle and Leonardo DiCaprio head to Thailand to drink snake blood and cuck French guys in "The Beach."
In 1996, Danny Boyle was riding the success of "Trainspotting" and American studios were lining up to give him a shot at the big leagues. In 1999, Boyle teamed with Fox and Leonardo DiCaprio for his first big post "Titanic" role to bring Alex Garland's 1996 novel "The Beach" to the big screen. Unfortunately, "The Beach" failed to bring even the most die-hard DiCaprio fans to theaters, with critics giving Boyle the worst reviews of his career. Writer and filmmaker Alex Kolpan joins the podcast to break down the troubled production, as well as Boyle's beef with Ewan McGregor, Leo's early attempt to break out of teen stardom and into Serious Actor territory, underwater sex scenes, destroying beaches, and Moby.
