Much of what is in the Idaho booklet is now online, including the interviews
![]() Yeah, it's very sad that River never got a chance to launch into the music industry. I think that's really what he wanted more than anything. You can still find some of his music if you really look for it though. It's funny, I remember reading an interview with Joaquin in which he lamented that the night River died he didn't even wanna go out... he just wanted to stay at home and play his guitar. That broke my heart to read, and I felt so bad for Joaquin, who claimed he talked River into going to The Viper Room so that he could meet The Red Hot Chilli Peppers. Really sad...

Here's the quote:
" I've heard stuff about how the night River died he was partying and all that — it's so untrue. That night we were together. He was just playing guitar. He wanted to show me a new song. And... I wanted to go out to see Flea play, because I'd never seen him play before. River wanted to go home, just hang out, play guitar. I was the one who wanted to go out and he was just making sure to take care of me." -- Joaquin. I will post more screencaps in a few days. A few more quotes by people about River!: " River was a remarkable artist and a rare human being. I miss him every day." -- Keanu Reeves " A very pure person got into a situation that was bigger than him." -- William Richert " A week before [he died], we were in Gallup, New Mexico, on the road. I had a lot of cases in my room, film equipment. I came out into the hall and said, "Can someone help me with my gear?" Somebody said, "Yeah." I didn't see who it was-I didn't have my glasses on. I went back into my room, brushed my teeth. There's a knock on the door, and it's River. I go, "River, what are you doing here?"He said, "I came to help you." I said, "I didn't mean you!" He said, "Whycan't I help ya?" -- Ed Lachman " There's a River born to be a giver Keep you warm, wont let you shiver His heart is never gonna wither..." -- ' Give it Away' by RHCP " One time we were up in the mountains with this Polynesian girl, and the clouds came right up to the top of the mountain. River grabbed each of our arms and said, “We're going to run and jump into these clouds, and our whole past lives will dissolve, and everything will be new from then on. Hold on." And we did that. And I'm thinking, Here I am, at my age, jumping off this cliff with this kid. But it was incredible, and we landed on this soft iceberg kind of ground covering. But we jumped through the clouds, literally." -- William Richert. " River and I would talk about getting old, being in our 50s together, how it'd probably take us that long to get to work together. There was something gorgeous about us being old together. River will be missed — period. I mean now, more than ever I wish I could talk to him." -- Joaquin Phoenix " 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 ****ed-up 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." -- Martha P. " This song is dedicated to Frank Zappa and River Phoenix... and you, dumb ***, who just threw water on me" -- Kurt Cobain, at Seattle Center Arena, Seattle, Washington ( I believe the song he played for River was ' Jesus Don't Want Me For a Sunbeam'. Personally, I think River could be a sunbeam now...)

^ The Kurt quote is really funny... out of context. He dedicated it to River, etc. because he was dedicating it to " everyone who dies young"... and a few months later, Kurt took his own life at 27.
I am going to cap the campfire scene and the bed scene tomorrow! Also, I really recommend everyone has a good look at the Criterion Collection that Christie mentioned. It's fantastic! ![]()
