When Leonardo DiCaprio's car breaks down on a backwater country road in the middle of nowhere, he is rescued by a cursing and cantankerous, yet instantly likeable, young chicken farmer named Cindy. What with an uneducated, overweight, overbearing and lazy mother who craves for a better life, but is unwilling to lift even a single finger to attain it, Cindy wasn't dealt life's best hand, but she is trying to break the mould that was seemingly cast for her. Leo spends a week on Cindy's ranch and learns valuable lessons about the struggles many people face and is buoyed by the perseverance Cindy shows to make something better of her life. Despite Cindy's seamier side, she represents all of our hopes and aspirations and proves that the American dream is still available for those who are willing to work hard for its attainment. The Chicken Farmer and Leonardo DiCaprio is a funny, bawdy and entertaining story of a meeting that we could only hope would occur in real life.
