WOW!! Thank you soooooo much for posting this! River is breathtaking in this scene!It's like he has this power over you! Not only do you feel like you are actually there right in front of him in that scene but you actually feel every emotion that he is feeling! There's something about him, there's like a bright light shining around him and you can't take your eyes off him! He's so unique and special! I love him! And he will ALWAYS be remembered!
