Also, thanks for those pictures in HQ. And welcome!! Hope to see you lots in this thread! xx

Fabulous photos, Eire. It's fantastic, feelings of what was 'then' looking back upon these images of River. Thank you so much for evoking that. B)

Thanks for the pictures, Eire. It's great to have someone posting young pictures of River, because I have to admit I usually just post pics of him ages 20-23! Thanks xx

^^He was his most beautiful in that movie. But I'm biased because I just LOVE TO DEATH that performance he gives as Mike.

 

[ChristieHumble]

That's my favorite River role/look, too. He was so beautiful and heartbreaking as Mike Waters. The campfire scene gets me every time, and it's only more impressive the more you find out about how deeply involved he was in creating/writing the scene, and contributing to Mike's characterization in general. To do what he did with that role took a lot of courage and a lot of heart, a combination of qualities that is partly what I love about River as both an actor, and a person.... Aww, River.

Thank you Eire!

You can almost sense from the photos that he didn't enjoy that part of being a celebrity (being styled and being told to pose for portraits) but he was so gosh darn naturally good looking the photos never seem flawed.
