@twilightriverlove Well let's just call it fate. Don't take away Leo's credit, he's an amazing actor with amazing talent. No one pushed River into drugs, or at least it's not Leo's fault that he died. I would have loved to see them both alive today, even in a movie, who knows? And even if River had lived, Leo would still have been successful, I am positive. Well, I simply love Leo and know almost nothing about River. Sorry, these are just my personal thoughts... Peace!
@Nakor420ish That is crazy true, for a lot of his roles went to Leo. I mean he was James Cameron wanted him to play Jack Dawson in the Titanic. With River, Leo wouldn't be anything.
its so sad he's not here anymore, he was so deep. Its so easy too get lost in someones looks, but he really did have so much more too him. Yes he wasn't perfect, but no one is, but he was pretty close to perfection in my eyes. So talented, life is so so cruel.
I really loved Chris Chambers the minute I saw Stand By Me, probs because he's one of the only characters whose reform was believable and heartful, and river's portrayal of him was AMAZING! The more I learn about river and his life and history and personal views, the more I absolutely love him. And yes he in stand by me he was absolutely cute, but his depth is so much more, and I just love both Chris and River to bits. -3
I saw the Movie Stand by me a favorite of mine and wikied all of the boys in it. Until I relised Chris (River Phoenix) actually died which made me so sad because at that age he was such a amazing actor and now in 2011 he could have been so famous... Its a shocker to see hes gone. Im glad the rest of the gang is still alive :)
Does anyone here know anything about River's political views? I once happened to read he sang with his band at Clinton's campaign rally in 1992. I hope that doesn't mean he implicitly stood for Clinton's warmongering policy, does it?
God you're a stupid loser. Check your historical timeline to see what issues Clinton had been championing at that time, and then come back to us with your own answer you dumb, dumb idiot.
Morons shouldn't vote, or comment on true artists. Least he didn't bore the world to death with campaigning like all Hollyweirdos today who shove their views down our throats (who cares who loves Ovomit). River was an environmentalist, pro-gay & a sensitive, talented artist.
Rivers beauty is breathtaking!!! I've never seen someone so perfect...but I don't understand why did he got into drugs...I'll never understand that and I'm angry because of that and because no one helped him.
But maybe he was to special for this world, because angels belong in Heaven and that's why he had to go so soon.
Anyway,he changed my life,made me a better person and I will never stop loving him.
@EdTV20 That's how he died. So it could be true. I don't understand how these stars are blessed with a gift to be talented and they throw it all away with drugs. You know they say those with the most talent has the most personal issues.
Look at 0:21 where he wipes his nose, also look at his eyes, his face. Then 0:38 - again the way he looks. I think he is totally stoned here. This is just a conclusion, I really like him, one very special, intelligent, warm, talented and goodlooking person...
@Dolgaz I think your totally right... He does look weird in those parts and he keeps on stuttering and stuff and hes all up close and yeah i think hes stoned here too haha... but i still LOVE him
@Kayla119petrey no he fucking isnt..its called being nervous. He was 18 and going to his first big award show. Im so sick of people that play so much into his death..UGGh
@vanityandlove Umm its okay for people to have their own opinions....and you actually dont really know if he was or not so just think what you want and i can think what i want......if you didnt like what i had to say just dont say anything instead of leaving hate comments...
@Kayla119petrey you consider that a hat ecomment?LMAO okay..
well i think your opinion is without merit. Just because the guy died of an overdose doesnt mean he was fucked his whole career. Cant we just celebrate his life and not wonder was he high here or was he high there?...fuck off with that.
i can actually say i love river phoenix. sooo amazing, stood for peace and animal rights. Shame he was with martha though i dont think she really did appreciate him.
Why are there today no more cases of people who are at the same time beautiful and with brains? I mean whatever River said was meaningful, well-put, and deep. Today, you have the "idols" who don't know shit.
Yeah ur so right all the idiots today just blag about what theyre wearing, how much money they got etc. Victoria beckham is a perfect example x miranda, uk x
He only only did three movies he completed between 1992 and 1993, mind you. While Sneakers, Silent Tongue, and The Thing Called Love were hardly of River's caliber, it was better than anything released in today's market. Only Dark Blood was never completed when River Phoenix passed away.
To say Sneakers, Silent Tongue, and the The Called Love are better than anything released in today's market is quite a bold and RIDICULOUS statement. Would you care to clarify that for us?
Very smart young person,with nice personality.With his talent,brain,and beauty he could have been the biggest competition to johnny depp nowadays.Not only the film industry and the fans,but the whole world lost a very unique and wonderful person.
actually his movie choices really sank after my own private idaho, but im sure he could of got out of the slump, maybe he did too many drugs at the time?
he was just so lovely!!!so simple and wonderful in the same time!! The woman in balck dress from Marths's behind in River's mother.I can recognize her from some pictures.
He was a great actor and he deserves his star on "walk of frame ".
There was speculation among cast members and Wil Wheaton himself to claim that River did drugs on the set of Stand By Me. I think around this time River was into marijuana. River didn't get into the hard drugs until the 1990s. That is when his addiction became really dangerous. Especially with the dangerous drugs he was using at the time.
i know this sounds really cheesy but im only 15 but river phoenix has inspired me and my friends to start a band aimed at peace. without river i wouldnt have the inspiration to face the day, and english weather(eeek)RIP
i don't know why i feel sick when people mention his untimely death,i cry every time i see stand by me,and not just a little bit either,it's kinda of embarrassing .lol if only doctor who was real,or i could time travel,

"i wanna find a bathroom as soon as possible" i wonder if he needed to pee or refresh his high.. it's so sad that the cult damaged him, but I wonder if it weren't for the abuse he endured and the life he led, would he have been such a deep feeler? His troubled soul came out in his work.. There is no sadder story than that of the late River Phoenix.. We miss you, though you remain in our hearts and we keep you alive with our love and your memory. You will never die <3
Everyone is calling him hot, and I would have to say that I disagree. I never thought of him as hot or sexy. I saw him as gorgeous or stunning. His features were too beautiful for me to consider him "hot".
she tried a million times to get him to stop. it's hard to watch someone you love self destruct. there is only so much you can do if he said no every time she said to stop or get help. blaming other ppl for someone elses addiction is wrong and if you're gonna place the blame why do it on his girlfriend what about his PARENTS or manager, they didn't do anything to help either.
she did speak about him - she said "He's already being made into a martyr. He's become a metaphor for a fallen angel, a messiah. He wasn't. He was just a boy, a very good-hearted boy who was very *beep* and had no idea how to implement his good intentions. I don't want to be comforted by his death. I think it's right that I'm angry about it, angry at the people who helped him stay sick, and angry at River."
River said he did not want to win the oscar for running on empty because he did not like to put himself on a " pedastal".. and he said other older actors should win...that was river, always thinking of others. river was so unselfish .. that is why i love him! he was one of a kind and had a heart! colleen phoenixxooo
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
It does not matter what we look like on the outside it is what counts in the inside that matters, and i think always that martha was one celf centered and abandoned river when he needed her most of all... river deserved better than martha! martha bad person on inside and dont even bring up rivers name in interviews, etc.. martha only cared about herself.. i guess her upbringing is to thank fot that, she was spoiled....UNLIKE RIVER!
martha plimpton is ugly! i think the only reason half of u guys thinks shes soo beutiful is beacuse she dated river ive always never found her to be in the least bit preety i was suprised that river dated her they made a cute couple but yikes! shes ugly
You really need to do some research. Martha never 'abandoned' River- she tried to get him to quit using drugs and ended their relationship when he told her 'no way' for the millionth time. she was always there for him and they never lost contact. martha had a life too you know- she couldnt waste it on thanklessly working to help someone who didnt want the help.
stop hating! she is NOT ugly at all. everyone maybe don't look like angelina jolie, but they can be beautiful anyway. and martha is. just stop saying shit like that, you know that river really loved her and he would be sad if the hearded what you losers are saying! :@
i have this footage at home river looks so beatiful it takes my breathe away to watch!!! he has class and very intelligent in this clip and i adore him with all my heart! he won award and deserve more! i love you river jude. colleen phoenix

River said he did not want to win the oscar for running on empty because he did not like to put himself on a " pedastal".. and he said other older actors should win...that was river, always thinking of others. river was so unselfish .. that is why i love him! he was one of a kind and had a heart! colleen phoenixxooo

he's being so honest. i think that's great.. esp. since he's immensely well known in the media, with movies and things.
and he's so damn hot. =)

It does not matter what we look like on the outside it is what counts in the inside that matters, and i think always that martha was one celf centered and abandoned river when he needed her most of all... river deserved better than martha! martha bad person on inside and dont even bring up rivers name in interviews, etc.. martha only cared about herself.. i guess her upbringing is to thank fot that, she was spoiled....UNLIKE RIVER!

"Ive always never" is a double negative....thanks for your backwards ass comment

How is "always never" a double negative? Always is not a negative
Never is negative.
Who's the backwards ass now?
I've never heard of Martha Plimpton, thank God!

Always never is an oxymoron

You really need to do some research. Martha never 'abandoned' River- she tried to get him to quit using drugs and ended their relationship when he told her 'no way' for the millionth time. she was always there for him and they never lost contact. martha had a life too you know- she couldnt waste it on thanklessly working to help someone who didnt want the help.

I don't want to hurt Sue, or Samantha ... but it seems to me, River loved this girl the most in his life.

stop hating! she is NOT ugly at all. everyone maybe don't look like angelina jolie, but they can be beautiful anyway. and martha is. just stop saying shit like that, you know that river really loved her and he would be sad if the hearded what you losers are saying! :@
