Home movie from the cast of 'My Own Private Idaho' (1990)

[arealOpia1991]

why does this say 1990 ... the filming was taken place in 1991 right ... does anyone know what the particular dates were that they were staying at Van Sant's house ??o.o anyone??

@SpectroAtlanta Michael Parker. River's character was based on him. Originally he was supposed to star in the movie, but ended up having more of a bit part.

Hee, River keeps pressing down his second toe with his big toe. I seriously think he might have had ADD - whenever you see candid footage of him, the guy can't stop moving. Plus I read that he finished other people's sentences a lot and drove them nuts. :)

I love how River could wear these semi-sloppy thrift store type outfits and still look incredibly gorgeous...

Very Rare video. Thank you for posting this.

[jude9406]

Great rare video. There really is so little about him on the internet these days.

[blahobla]

I cant really understand the full first sentence.

"Did you ever like, have any sort of like care or emotional response for someone who picked you up? Did you ever like feel like, they were looking for more than just the lust?"

"..No"

"No.. there's sort of cold?"

"Yeah it was kinda.. yeah it was cold.. yeah"

"And very (?) (technical?), it was all for him, not for you"

"Exactly"

Thats what I have time to write down for now thaha :P

[ilovetimburton1]

It is so admiring to see how River really genuinely tries to get into character by deeply exploring the backgrounds of the character.

RIP River Phoenix. The greatest actor of all time.

[Jethromoviemarathon]

It's exactly 1:51am now in Los Angeles River.. 17 years have passed and we fans still miss you. You will always be loved, remembered and you shall never be forgotten.

Rest in peace River Jude Phoenix.

[irhjma30000]

[lifeiswhatyoumakeitt]

[LisaRanae]

I'm think you look stupid

[ohsuckitup2]

i like when he said "So Riv" and River's like "Yes,Sir"

OMGosh I love this clip

thanks for putting this on :)

[violetta223]

Is it true that Rodney Harvey died in a car accident?  I'm sure I read it in piece between River & Reeves.

[rikki444]

no, that was someone who helped out behind the scenes. Harvey is dead however- overdosed on heroin 5 years after Phoenix.

[littledrummer432]

Who is harvey

[steveconn]

Nice guitar-playing River!

[PurplePhoenix3121]

Who's that lying in the corner when Rio's talking?! :p

[jphoenixfan]

It's hard to tell, but it might have been Rodney Harvey.

[rikki444]

Im pretty sure its not Harvey. Looks more like Shaun Jordan- but could really be anyone..im under the impression there were alot of folks staying in that house, lol.

[icyxxx]

Seeing that guy's hair, looks like it could be Scott Green. Just another guess :)

[stfuiitsdanielle]

hahahah! i noticed that too, i was thinking " omg, stop. " lmaao :)

[allstar248]

I had no idea River was THAT good on guitar!

[jphoenixfan]

Okay - I can't watch this clip any more. All I focus on is River's toe twitching. Cracks me up! Gotta love him!

[RiosMyAngel7093]
