The Beach
USA 2000 Color
Innocence never lasts forever DiCaprio is playing Richard, a sardonic young traveler who comes upon a map of a secret island paradise during a layover in Bangkok. He and a young couple make their way to the island, off the coast of Thailand, where they find a small community of youths living off the land and sea, answerable only to nature -- and to themselves. The story is about how various pressures, external and internal, gradually bring about the disintegration of their utopia.
