On October 28, 2016, Leonardo DiCaprio won his first ever Oscar for "The Revenant." This was his 6 time being nominated for the best actor award. DiCaprio is perhaps one of the finest actors to have ever graced the silver screen. Here are some movies that showcase the sheer brilliance of DiCaprio as an actor.

1. "Titanic"

1997 marked the rise of Leonardo DiCaprio as a superstar in Hollywood. His sizzling onscreen chemistry with Kate Winslet in "Titanic" coupled along with a really emotional ending are what make this movie a must watch for everyone.

2. "The Departed"

Boasting an incredible cast of Oscar winner Jack Nicholson, Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Wahlberg, "The Departed" is one of the most well made crime stories in Hollywood. DiCaprio plays the role of an undercover cop who infiltrates Nicholson's gang and on the other side you have Damon who is an undercover in the police force for the mob. DiCaprio was at his finest in the movie and was also nominated for an Oscar, but sadly did not secure the win.

3. "Inception"

"Inception" is perhaps one of the most confusing movies ever made. Directed by Christopher Nolan, "Inception" again showcases the great talent possessed by Leonardo DiCaprio with his ability to harness different characters.

4. "Catch Me If You Can"

DiCaprio plays the role of a conman in which he becomes a doctor, a pilot and a lawyer, and Tom Hanks' character is out to get him. Easily DiCaprio's best movie yet because of his sheer brilliance as an actor and also because of the funny cat and mouse chase he has going on with Hanks.

5. "The Revenant"

"The Revenant" was the movie that finally helped DiCaprio bag his Oscar and make fan boys like me cry tears of joy. "The Revenant" is an excellent movie and is inspired by true events in which an explorer is left to die by his companions and how he takes revenge on Tom Hardy's character who had killed his on-screen son. Coupled with an excellent performance by DiCaprio and amazing cinematography, "The Revenant" is one of his finest movies to date.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
