Young Leonardo DiCaprio scorched the screen in THE BASKETBALL DIARIES, the harrowing, drug-fueled 1995 biopic of famed New York poet, musician, author, and artist Jim Carroll directed by Scott Kalvert—which just so happens to be the favorite movie of our buddy and fan of the show Alex Sterling, who had a couple cocktails and hit Jay up about doing this episode... which we were stoked to do because we *LOVE* this film (and the fact that it gave us a chance to tell our "Marky Mark" story, which we forgot to get to in our episode covering The Departed with Dan Benamor)!
