How much I would love to slap Judie is unbelievable! How fucking dare she say he deserved to die! No-one deserves to die! But if she died I think I would of spat in her coffin. She should of been the one in the coffin, not him! Un-respectable bitch! His someone's son, brother, uncle. And she comes out with that?! If I was River's mum I would of gone down there and kicked the shit out of her for saying that! R.I.P River, love you always.
I was cast as an extra in this movie and part of it was filmed in New Mexico. I was only 4 years old at the time but it would be so crazy if I saw myself when it gets released Lol
it wasn't murder, he just needed a release so he seeked comfort in drugs, which unfortunatley killed him, all this needs too stop, we will never know what happened behind closed doors, & tbh he woulden't want anyone too know, he struggled for privacy when he was alive, & it seems he's still struggeling years after his death, stop all this blame & all the what ifs, what happened happened, & no one can change it, let the angel r.i.p!
so we might aswell just let it rest, & just remember river from hard based evidence, not the 'rumours' from a secondary source no one is responisible for rivers death but river he chose too take the drugs this does not make him a bad person he was young made a mistake no one held a gun too his head yes he may have been stressed but people are stressed everyday & most of them dont go and take drugs, as much as i adore river i dont think its fair how people are getting blamed for his death
everyone should stop slagging judy davis even though it was said that the woman made rivers skin crawl he would not want people too be slagging her off & partly putting the blame on her for his death As much as River may have disliked Judy the river ive read about would not want his fans slagging her off He was all about peace it sucks that hes not here anymore he was amazing in so many ways but slagging her off would not make him happy no one knows what happened between them & we will never kno
River idolized Judy Davis.When you idolize someone and they are mean to you that really hurts she did not have to be such a witch to him.Don't get me wrong she is a good actress and everything but she helped push him over the edge.
I was working as a runner in 2000 when I came across some reels of film labeled 'Dark Blood' in the basement of a production company in Soho. I didn't at the time know the title so I asked around at the office and I was told about the sad and tragic tale of River Phoenix and this abandoned film...
To mollyvital - there's a River Phoenix biography entitled "Lost In Hollywood" which has an entire chapter regarding the shooting of this film and some of the issues Sluizer and Phoenix had with Judy Davis
Judy Davis had no trouble with River, that is Sluizer's fabrication. The argument was between George and Judy, not Judy and River. There's an article describing River kissing Judy's feet. - that doesn't sound like a bad relationship to me. Judy has also said she was concerned about River because George's direction was vague and he kept pressuring him to be more kabuki and over the top.
@AdArmand I, too, think the conflict was a professional one, between Davis and The Director; although, she may have taken-out her frustrations on her young co-star. I think she thought of River as a kid, considered some of his behavior to be "antics" and wasn't protective of him during the shoot, focusing more on challenging the director. Phoenix was a likeable darling. I think he wasn't used to people not...liking him - or, at least, attempting to be nice to him. His death was just unexpected.
maybe that judy person got mad cause maybe river didnt like her like that or somethin idk im just guessing but that is mean what she said about him no one should ever say something like that about someone its wrong
@mollyvital She was really rude to everyone on the set. She made filming hard on them all with her attitude and would not even acknowledge River when they weren't filming. I've heard she was like that with everyone. He-River-admired her and partly wanted to do this movie so he could work with her. It hurt him a lot. She was just hard for them to work with. He didn't like the way she treated everyone.
but why was she like that?? was she that popular that she got to do what she wanted?
i really see her ugly and not a nice body a mean she is not all that at all , was she a good actress??? is just weird, usually the bad ones are because they know they are pretty , and everyone will put up with them.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Well, Judy Davis is a highly acclaimed Australian actress, she wasn't there in the Viper Room when River had his final hit. He's deceased, she was in the movie with him, so blame Judy Davis! What sort of warped reasoning is that? I guess the same that invades Iraq in '03 as a scapegoat for 9/11 !
I'm sorry "Weskitten", but you're a total dipshit. If you knew anything about any of this at all, you'd know that Judy Davis' was a complete CUNT to River, purposely making it very hard for him while shooting this film...
Well, I don't know Davis, I don't particularly care about her, she may have been what you claim. Is it a chicken/egg argument? Was Davis justifiably irritated by a dude who was prob drugged, or did River deepen his drug use thru stress of Davis? You're only thinking one side of this...he's not j.c. on the cross!
This was stated by many a people onset to this film as well. She went out of her WAY to be a complete bitch to him.
Which since he idolized her, made it very hard, stressful, and saddening to him. So FUCK OFF Weskitten... Do not speak about something that you know nothing about...
"Highly acclaimed Australian actress"? Sure. Does that give her the "ok" and a good reason to be a cunt? hell no. So I'm sorry if some fans of River resent her...
Wow...You truly are ridiculous Weskitten...LOL Bringing 9/11 into this? my god, are you retarded...? lol and telling me he isn't "j.c. on the cross"? Well no shit my dear. lol
But he did not deserve the negativity that your miss Judy gave off. Hows' about you take your Judy, and ever so slightly shove her into her rectum...? lol... My god, shes a bitch, and its been said on many occasion ASIDE from the River ordeal... Read your shit, love... And stop bringing up useless things, yes? lol
I am sorry for the typo. I said "Shove her into her rectum." I meant shove her into YOUR rectum..." Both though, would be a rather amusing feat to witness...LOL...
You're going back 1 1/2 decades +. It's like these folks on about Susan Atkins who killed Sharon Tate in '69, both are dead now. Forgive and forget. Davis wasn't with Phoenix on 10/31/93, he had agency, he made a mistake. As J. Depp said...'trouble is, it was a big one!'
i truly love all these comments. your all right judy davis is pathetic. i mean really the only thing she is known for is that judy garland tv movie she did and won an emmy for and the only reason i know that is because i had to imdb her. Besides that who the fuck is judy davis and WHO cares
i like to bitch slap judie davis in her face! damn her for being such a bitch! I think River was having a hard enough time as it was. she just made it worse for him!
I knew it! Judie Davis hated River and gave him a hell of a time during filming. Listen carefully George says judie said 'he was an unstable boy he deserved to die!' How dare she say that what a awful person she is x miranda , uk x

That horrid BITCH Judy Davis is the one who deserved to die, NOT River!! I hold her partly
accountable for his death because River was so upset and disturbed by working with that
evil selfish wench that he got all strung out on drugs that weekend just to blow off some
steam from having to endure working with the untalented likes of her slimy ass!! River
Phoenix had more natural acting talent in his little pinkie finger than she has in her entire being!! RIP River.

1) Just hearing River's beautiful voice and face in these final scenes is making me want to die....
2) That chick helping him with the truck was the luckiest woman alive.
3) The director who is talking sounds like he is speaking gibberish & I can't understand a word he is saying...
4) That b*tch who said that about River makes me want to vomit!!! And kill her. And then go vomit some more.
