Don’t act like he was given a bad drink and didn’t know. He went looking around to find drugs to take and it wasn’t a fucking drink. He snorted a speedball up his fucking nose. Fucking hell.
Bebel Apratto He really was, I miss him so much I can't even explain it in words. Every performance he gave was moving, but of course some more than others really touched you. I can see why he was nominated for an Oscar for Running on Empty.
When the interviewer says that 'everybody thinks of you as a nice guy' River is modest, humble and almost embarrassed of the compliment. Wish more actors were like that
Hot damn, River Jude, you were humble! You were ridiculously gorgeous, humble, educated, caring, thoughtful, musical, talented. I know you were unhappy but watching this makes so many people like me happy l. Today I felt you Rio you were beside me and it was amazing. I love you baby 💘❤️
I was only 7 when River was taken from us and it hurts because I'm just now discovering him and I've fallen completely, utterly and madly in love with him but he's gone
He was my age? 17 whatttt!! I also have fear of getting older, I completely understand him, why did I never watched one of his interviews? I have known about him for a couple of years but never thought he was this intersting. Rest in Peace.
River is so adorable here. Out of all the interviews I've seen this one is my all time favorite!! He is so cute, and sweet. Such an amazing person all around. Love him and miss him every day. May he rest in peace. He deserves it for sure :)
Great movie one of the best .Judd Hirsh such a nice man in person ran into him many of times he only lives 4 towns away from me. Christine Lahti.Great actress .River will forever be missed.And the younger bro from a Christmas story. I think that was his last film.great movie to be watching on a Saturday night.
he's f**cking hot but so sweet!!!!!!!!!!! RIP my little River !!!!! and to all the people who still support him to this day I love that!! such a shame he left to soon😢 I love you River💗 and I miss you💔
what a beautiful interview...Rio was so humble,as always..Thay told him he was terrific and he was surprised,embarassed,happy..and so swwet..what a person..what a gentle heart..and what a talnt in acting and playing music..He was so sèure..he was a treasure.....I so miss him...almost everyday..I'm still grieving for him-...and still,sometimes I can't belive death has tears hm apart from us...just like now....I onlurts..and It will always hurt (me)....
i have never seen such beauty before in my life, and LOL @ 4:07 i love how he is surprised his cast mates think of him as an extraordinary actor. river phoenix was one of a kind, honestly i dont think anyone today is like him. rest in piece rio!
aww river was such a humble soul, in interviews he was always honest and knew a lot about his surroundings, his voice is so calming too. it’s a shame that he said he did want to grow old and he didn’t 😔 oh river ❤️
A poem about River from a book on amazon titled: “12:12 Midnight” by Danielle Ever Rose FOREVER RIVER A peaceful river flows from the start, Twenty three three days and twenty three nights apart. The clear water calm turning into rushing rapids, Tearing you up before you get out. But like a Phoenix from the ashes, He will rise, A beautiful spirit, Haunting striking eyes. A room full of vipers, A venom so strong, Taken away in the hollow morning songs. This river treasure like a shooting star, Lights up the night sky, And just for a moment shines brighter than all the other stars. Seemingly gone forever, but never forgotten. RIP River Phoenix
Just imagine if he had alived.he would've make lot's of ironic movies of 90's to watch and become one of A-list actor in Hollywood and make cameo in john wick
"just my nature" *shoulder shrug* what a colossal loss we have. honestly though. i think its time i appreciate what we did have. i cant live in the past anymore. i think its hard when i low key fall in love everytime i see him 🤣😍
Rio,I miss u..You know it,you changed my life. In 93.thanks to his pure example and sensitive words,I bacame vegetarian.I was 16. Then I became vegan (And I'm proudly vegan :) ) and also a volounteer for a little no profit association for Animal Rights. Thank you Rio.
Think about River Phoenix: grew up in a cult that abused children (if he was or wasn’t we’ll probably never know), travelled with his family like nomads, never having any stable contacts outside his family, never went to school, always forced to adapt quickly. At age 9 started working and being the bread winner for his family (what were these parents actually doing???) Why is everybody shocked he did drugs and eventually overdosed? Ignore the image for one minute and look at the facts. He never had a real chance. What’s also interesting: in interviews everybody’s like: River was my best friend. He had a lot of “best friends” yet nobody called 911 when he needed it. His only real friend was his brother Joaquin. And I think he’s the only one really grieving his death. All the others still capitalize from his image as the acting prodigy - even until today. Marketing at it’s best.
3:33 Please don't say that. I am trying to ignore that I am getting old. I am literally 17, I mean one more year, then I'll be on my own. 3:57 - Everyone on this set said the same thing, "you're terrific, you're a terrific actor, a wonderful kid"... - Oh damn, really? How much did you pay them?
River with that haircut and those glasses are the hottest thing I've ever seen tbh. RIP my baby imy
+Jamison Macchio Indeed..
My goodness yes. Totally charming, adorable, and sweet. He had everything. How could he not see that and pull away from hurting himself?!
Joseph Consoli no he was giving a drink that was spiked with heroine n cocaine
Don’t act like he was given a bad drink and didn’t know. He went looking around to find drugs to take and it wasn’t a fucking drink. He snorted a speedball up his fucking nose. Fucking hell.
@@edeneverly2573 look at his autopsy. It says it was a speedball DRINK. Everyone there that night said he drank something that killed him.
Only being 17 here he talks so mature & he has such a good head on his shoulders... He has such an old soul.
River was still 16 when shooting began for this movie as it was shot in the summer of 1987 and released the following year.
Perhaps the most ironic thing about this interview is River fear of getting older. Which we all know sadly he ever did.
I. Have. That. Fear. Too. Um. I. Really. Am. Scared
joyce bruhn yes me too. Like, what am I supposed to do?
River was such an amazing person and he stood in his beliefs. I wish he was still around. Amazing and beautiful person gone say to soon.
I want him back.he was so amazing and kind
Oh my god, we all did. He was 17 for fucks sake. Y’all are so dramatic and creepy.
River is always sweet n shy especialy when his getting praised
It's the cutest thing honestly
He was just a baby here, only 17, I remember this being one of my favorite movies too.
+Stella Apple It´s one of my favorite River´s movie, Stella. He was astonishing on this film.
Bebel Apratto He really was, I miss him so much I can't even explain it in words. Every performance he gave was moving, but of course some more than others really touched you. I can see why he was nominated for an Oscar for Running on Empty.
He was special indeed.
Bebel Apratto Yes he was :) Forever in are hearts
No doubt...forever in our hearts!
River is perfect.
When the interviewer says that 'everybody thinks of you as a nice guy' River is modest, humble and almost embarrassed of the compliment. Wish more actors were like that
Anyone else cry when it got to Riv's interview
+Johnny Cade Well my eyes sweated a bit...but what a sweet kid he was that grew up to be a beautiful man who tragically left us too soon.
Jung Shook yes!
This made me want to cry! I love how humble and genuinely sweet he was. Rip River!
Hot damn, River Jude, you were humble! You were ridiculously gorgeous, humble, educated, caring, thoughtful, musical, talented. I know you were unhappy but watching this makes so many people like me happy l. Today I felt you Rio you were beside me and it was amazing. I love you baby 💘❤️
I miss you River. Damn, You were terrific!
river was a proper legend.
I miss my dear River. Wish he was still here and being able to see him celebrate his 45th birthday in August. :(
+MyOwnPrivateAlex90s damn right in the feels dude
+Isabelle Haigh yeah. :(
+MyOwnPrivateAlex90s Yes...tht´s exactly I´ve been thinking about
My. Birthday. August. Too. But. I. Am. A. Bit. Older
49 in 2019
he was so precious i'm crying
Everything about River was iconic from his name his talent and everything else. Rest in peace angel
Such a beautiful soul. I miss him dearly 😭
I was only 7 when River was taken from us and it hurts because I'm just now discovering him and I've fallen completely, utterly and madly in love with him but he's gone
He wasn't taken Mommy&MePlus3 Creativity he left.....
I wasn't even born and somehow I feel like I knew him, I admire his acting and personality. I'm sure he is a star in heaven.
Not yet, but maybe one day
Creep
Y’all sound creepy and pathetic. Jesus. He would’ve puked to hear you saying this dumb shit.
He was so pure 🤧😩🧡 a cute quiet, humble, nice, intelligent, talented man. Why do the good ones have to leave so young...😕
He is so beautiful and wise. I'm so sad he passed away he was a beautiful soul
I’m literally crying, he was so sweet and humble, the way he talked with so much wisdom. May he rest in peace sweet angel 😢😢😢
He was my age? 17 whatttt!! I also have fear of getting older, I completely understand him, why did I never watched one of his interviews? I have known about him for a couple of years but never thought he was this intersting. Rest in Peace.

A poem about River from a book on amazon titled: “12:12 Midnight” by Danielle Ever Rose
FOREVER RIVER
A peaceful river flows from the start, Twenty three three days and twenty three nights apart.
The clear water calm turning into rushing rapids,
Tearing you up before you get out.
But like a Phoenix from the ashes,
He will rise,
A beautiful spirit,
Haunting striking eyes.
A room full of vipers,
A venom so strong,
Taken away in the hollow morning songs.
This river treasure like a shooting star, Lights up the night sky,
And just for a moment shines brighter than all the other stars.
Seemingly gone forever,
but never forgotten.
RIP River Phoenix
Danny Girl Designs
So beautiful, Thank you.

He was UNIQUE 🖤
I love him :(
He’s basically 80’s Harry Potter but with more depth and magic.
r.I.p. my heart
We miss you 😍
"just my nature" *shoulder shrug*
what a colossal loss we have.
honestly though. i think its time i appreciate what we did have. i cant live in the past anymore.
i think its hard when i low key fall in love everytime i see him 🤣😍
'The candle that burns twice as bright burns twice as fast.'
Rio,I miss u..You know it,you changed my life.
In 93.thanks to his pure example and sensitive words,I bacame vegetarian.I was 16.
Then I became vegan (And I'm proudly vegan :) ) and also a volounteer for a little no profit association for Animal Rights.
Thank you Rio.
this is 1987!!... must be around end of aug beginning of sept of that year for River to have just turned 17!
Think about River Phoenix: grew up in a cult that abused children (if he was or wasn’t we’ll probably never know), travelled with his family like nomads, never having any stable contacts outside his family, never went to school, always forced to adapt quickly. At age 9 started working and being the bread winner for his family (what were these parents actually doing???)
Why is everybody shocked he did drugs and eventually overdosed?
Ignore the image for one minute and look at the facts. He never had a real chance. What’s also interesting:
in interviews everybody’s like: River was my best friend. He had a lot of “best friends” yet nobody called 911 when he needed it.
His only real friend was his brother Joaquin. And I think he’s the only one really grieving his death. All the others still capitalize from his image as the acting prodigy - even until today.
Marketing at it’s best.
R.I.P Rio, i love you!!
