I think he was young and needed help, but no one really saw it because he was such a good actor. I also think he was in the wrong bar with the wrong people. From what I understand, he was upset about not being able to play on stage that night and wanted to get high, but was he doing what he thought ... which was probably some blow.
I miss you River!!! You were too beautiful for this world. You made this world a better place in your short life, especially for animals. Many people became Vegan because of you. THAT is your legacy. Not dying at the Viper Room.
@@Quaiot42 I honestly feel you 😞 I feel my heart break into a million tiny pieces every time I come across comments such as those. It's tragic that they don't see what's wrong with what their saying.
I consider river above Depp, DiCaprio.. they copied his look , mostly depp.. copied him.. river would be the biggest star in the world.. with brando.. Pacino.
Man we think alike. Ive always said that to my friends. But i think acting- wise it's DiCaprio who copied him more and the looks,Depp. River was so beautiful and so talented ,i dont blame them
@@travis6694 how did "drop" look like River ? Lol Okay with the look: i mean the swag ,the style, the facial expression. Tbh tho i think both Leo and Depp copied him
Exactly !! Johnny Depp was involved in River Phoenix's death it was his club and he walked outside while River was on the ground dying and Johnny Depp just looked at him and said fuck him and walked back inside the club 😢 so 🖕 Johnny Depp he got what he deserved when he married Amber heard karma's a real bitch lol
So, my question is can you be a sweet and vulnerable actor without tripping into the pit falls of drugs and possibly an untimely death? It happened to Heath Ledger also
Mary Hughes actually you're right .. they are very similar .. painfully sensitive and obviously using drugs as a form of self medicating . Surrounded by enablers , capable of amazing performances and gone way way too soon
Mary Hughes depends on your influences. River started hanging with drug addicts, correct me if I’m wrong. It’s obvious he had problems with himself and the pressure of the media and because he was so sensitive he let drugs completely take over him and saw it as a way to forget about his problems. Just like most drug addicts. I wouldn’t still exclude the possibility of him being murdered. Hollywood is a dark place
Genesis Cespedes He was killed, don’t know if it was intentionally, but the fact that he was given a lethal drink by John Frusciante is not disputed. What is bullshit are the rumours that River was on a drugs binge days leading up to his death, that’s a proven lie, and Last Night at The Viper Room and Running With Monsters, both authors should be thoroughly ashamed of printing lies , clearly no investigation into what really happened or where River was days before he died!
GABRIEL CAVALCANTE GONZAGA ALVES ALVES I know, some ‘friend’ 😢 Why did they wait 25 minutes to call 911? Why did Joaquin have to lie to the paramedic 😢 River could have been saved if he was helped immediately
@@pyt7778 Many peopple sayed I am crazy because I NEVER BELIEVED ABOUT THE ACCIDENTALLY RIVER S DEATH. MANY PEOPPLE IN HOLLYWOOD WERE FEAR ABOUT THE RIVER S WORDS FROM THE REAL LIFE MOVI E INDUSTRY. JOAQUIM KNOWN THE TRUE HISTORY BUT HE NEVER SPEAK.
GABRIEL CAVALCANTE GONZAGA ALVES ALVES Well you’re not crazy! It’s not a conspiracy theory, it was witnessed by River’s girlfriend and told to William Richert 3 days after River died. I don’t know whether Depp was involved, but he definitely helped protect Frusciante, because the CCTV was wiped so no evidence, then he hid Frusciante away so the cops couldn’t quest him. They didn’t need to worry about that anyway, because no one gave his name to the cops. It angers me that he was allowed to get away with killing River😡😢
@@pyt7778 John and River were good friends and John would never kill him intentionally. John is the same kind soul as River. That's why they matched... John is a musician and River was always interested in music. They recorded songs together. They both had hard times dealing with popularity tension and they both suffered, couldn't cope with it. They were both addicts. It's not John's fault that River died. He may had given that drink to him, but that was because they both shot drugs, and he was never near when River started to feel bad. River's family must have called paramedics much earlier..... it's not John's fault that River was an addict too. They both were not themselves that night and it's a horrible coincidence that it was fatal for River.
I think he was bored with the world and he was also VERY angry. That anger was leading to arrogance. I believe his parents had separated, his films were not doing too well, he had a lot of people who depended on him so he was the breadwinner & of course, politics was a big concern. That's a lot to deal with and I think he was sick of it? There was always a doomed quality to him so when I heard of his death, I was incredibly sad but not that shocked !!!
That is a good way to describe it. I agree, he seemed to have changed a lot after filming MOPI. In his infamous interview in 1991, he seemed really bitter. Like his whole demeanor really changed and you can tell that he became pessimistic. Poor River.
Pienso lo mismo el volvió a las drogas porque nada estaba bien en su vida,había fracasado,en su peliculas,había traicionado sus valores pero lo que más le dolio a river fue que la relación con su novia tambien estaba a punto de romperse.
no hablo ingles y como yo muchos de sus admiradores de centro y del sur de america y creo q tenemos tanto derecho como cualquier admirador de saber que se dice de el gracias
i genuinely don't think this dude was an addict. he just indulged in drugs every now and again that people close to him didn't like. and tragically he died due to a lack of info of what he was ingesting. fucking sucks man.
Ok this is the thing…River dried up of all the drugs because the director had him by him for six weeks in the mountain so Rivers system hit a reset. Then River came back to the city and did the same amount of cocaine as before plus the same heroin and his new clean body overdosed. It happens to people who stay clean a few weeks and then relapse and take as much as before. If River had paced himself he would be alive.
As someone who used to have a drug problem and never had many friends, it shows how clueless people are about drug users. River was a talented actor however his career was starting to slump and he wasn't in any really good movie's at the end of his life. People like to say that he had Interview with the vampire coming up but he was to have the tiniest part in that movie of being the interviewer, you know the role that Christian Slater ended up getting and even with River in the role was just going to be a bit part and forgettable. As someone who was a teenager during this time, remembering well when he died and even had the cover of people announcing it, I know better how things were back then than kids who weren't even alive. River was a good actor, River championed good causes but he had his demons and was prone to pushing boundaries and therefore got into drugs. Like anyone at 23 who wants to get high he could have seen one of his good friends OD or even die and because he was young think oh that'll never happen to me. You shouldn't blame any of River's friends or his family, you shouldn't even blame whoever gave him the speedball because ultimately nobody held a gun to his head and made him do anything, he done what he wanted and that night like several others in his life he just wanted to get high. I don't know if you kids think you could have prevented this by tying him up and yes maybe you might've delayed his death for a day, week or even a year but you can't fix people who don't want to be fixed. I remember back when this happened it exposed to a lot of us just how fake hollywood celebs are; because River put forth this squeaky clean image of peace and love but it turns out like everything you see on TV was a lie and he had serious drug issues, thought he was on top of the world and that he couldn't die. Nobody killed River except for himself and he should just show people that everything in hollywood even the so called wholesome good sweet actors are fake!
His decent after that Godforsaken My Own Private Idaho experience is heart 💔 . . . River seemed to go downhill doing his method acting "research" for that film, the character he played used heroin and heroin is the most addictive drug there is.

Of all the factors and elements that were involved, that player their part, on all the many layers within himself and outside of himself. Theres one thing that no one has ever picked up on. At least I've never once heard or come across it being mentioned. And its one thing that is serious enough and capable enough of being fully responsible for River's psychological and physical state. If its not entirely a primary cause, its at the very least one of the primary causes. And that is being Vegan his whole life. B12 deficiency is dangerous, severe B12 deficiency is fatally dangerous. Fatally because of the degree of psychological imbalance, and if fatality doesn't occur from a by-product of the psychological state, you will still be in hell but have irreparable brain damage.

It’s ‘Ting’ jerk.
So much BS propaganda. How dare you talk about him that way. Disrespectful.
*he didn´t die before his time / he died because he was a junk*
That movie The Thing called love sucked big time and so did River’s acting .. his last movies after Sneakers sucked.
Definitely his worst movie, can’t win em all. Especially when your doings drugs
River was a great actor / musician , he acted with such passion from his heart. He was a beautiful soul.
no one asked your opinion on his acting.
I enjoyed this movie.
The only reason he participated in this movie was because he was able to sing. River originally wanted to be a musician
Plus the Director.. he wanted to work with him.
