Leonardo DiCaprio has a Golden Globe nomination for his return performance with co-star Kate Winslet in their new movie 'Revolutionary Road.' "The Insider" has his reaction to the film's four nominations.

"I want to sincerely thank the Hollywood Foreign Press for the nomination and for their recognition of  'Revolutionary Road.' Congratulations to Kate Winslet and Sam Mendes on their nominations, as well as the entire cast and crew, who put their heart and soul into this film. They all deserve an equal amount of recognition for its success. Richard Yates is the real star of 'Revolutionary Road.' For far too long, his writing didn’t receive the credit it deserves. I hope that the film goes a long way towards fixing that mistake,” Leonardo says after learning about the nominations.

Meanwhile, Leo's 'Revolutionary Road' director Mendes, who is nominated for his directing, tells "The Insider," "We are all delighted and honored that the Hollywood Foreign Press recognized the film in such a generous way. This was a labor of love for all of us and to see it being received in such a positive way is very gratifying."

'Revolutionary Road' is a story about a couple living in the mid-1950's and struggling to deal with their personal problems while raising a family.
