Like Leonardo di Caprio in that movie. And if he passes the bar in that state, would he have to pass another bar to practice in another jurisdiction?

Most states require that a person applying to take the Bar exam show proof of graduation from an accredited law school in that state. All states (except graduates of the 2 law schools in Wisconsin) require the passing of the bar exam before a license to practice law in that state is issued. A few states will recognize another state's license (reciprocity). Some will recognize a portion of another state's bar exam (the MSE or Multi-State part) but still require passing that state's specific exam. Check with the Bar Association in the specific State

Last time I checked, several years ago, there was one state that allowed a person to challenge the bar after serving an apprenticeship with a lawyer for several years. I am unaware of anyone who successfully did that. In general, one gets licensed one state at a time. Each state has its own rules about licensing of lawyers who are licensed in other states.

Yes. Here in california you can study under a lawyer for a few years and take the test.

In many places, you can't sit for the bar exam unless you have a JD.

...you must be living in KaLiFoRniA ! ...caught up in some Hollywood dream world and fantasy land.
The same as it would it be possible to pass a driving test without sitting in a car or a pilot's licence from a train. Leo is an actor, they can fly if they want to, Don't take Hollywood too seriously and certainly don't take any of your life's lessons from them.
