For the first time in Russian - the debut novel by the cult American writer and screenwriter Peter Hedges, the basis of the film of the same name by Lasse Hallström ("ABBA", "The Cider House Rules", "Chocolate", "Hachiko") starring Johnny Depp and Leonard DiCaprio; For the role of Arnie Grape, young DiCaprio received his first Oscar nomination, and the legendary Sven Nykvist, Ingmar Bergman's permanent cameraman, acted as the cinematographer. Twenty-four-year-old Gilbert Grape works as a grocery store clerk and lives in Endora, Iowa (pop. 1091), where just about everything gnaws at him. He would be happy to go somewhere, but at home he is kept by an unbearable (literally) mother, and a younger brother with developmental problems, and a sister who still mourns the death of Elvis, and a long-standing affair with an older woman. And then one day, a mysterious beauty arrives in Endora for the summer holidays, who, rolling around the city on a bicycle, turns the heads of all the guys and who turns Gilbert's world upside down... on the edge of the American Dream. Like a David Lynch film designed by our local primitive artists” (The New York Times).
