Leonardo DiCaprio At the 'Fahrenheit 9/11' Screening

From the NYT Boldface Names:

LEONARDO DICAPRIO, in a backward baseball cap and wispy facial hair, did group interviews at Mr. Weinstein's request.

Is it important for celebrities to be public about their political beliefs, a reporter asked.

Ooops - we're running tight on space. YOUR NAME IN THIS SPACE to the person who can tell us what Mr. DiCaprio's answer was.

From the NYO Transom:

"I think a lot of people are going to be talking about this film," said Leonardo DiCaprio as he stood, arms folded, face broad and puffy, in front of panting reporters. "And I think a lot more people who are on the fence about who to vote for, after they see the film, they ll be solidified in their vote."

Thanks to Heather, this from Cindy Adams:

MICHAEL MOORE's anti-Bush "Fahrenheit 9/11" drew more base ball caps than Yankee Stadium. Leonardo DiCaprio wore his backwards and told me: "I'm political. You bet, I'm political. That's why I'm here."
