Leonardo DiCaprio’s Mystery Mouthing at the Golden Globes: Solved!

Everyone was buzzing the day after the Golden Globe Awards, wondering who Leonardo DiCaprio was playfully interacting with at his table. A short video of the actor chatting animatedly with someone across from him quickly spread online after a New York Times reporter, Kyle Buchanan, shared it with a caption suggesting DiCaprio was unusually lively.
