I met river back in 1993 at a. Hard rock a cafe in LA. He was really nice and my sister asked him for a autograph, and he invited us to his table to eat with him. He actually paid our tab.

I miss him and i never even met him

The most beautiful human being inside out.

It's comforting to know I'm not the only one who misses him and feels loss despite being born after he passed. River feels like an eternal flame, always so luminous and exuding warmth... I wish the world could have been better to him, he cared so deeply for it.

“I wanna be a cool bastard” and he laughs... and I died

Hard to explain this one...but he had a natural thoughtfulness, and young wisdom about him. Johnny Depp always seemed to me as someone who wanted to sound deep, pushed very hard for the laid back poet vibe. River was the genuine article

His gaze is so fierce but his character is so gentle. He’s wise beyond his years and was a truly passionate soul. So tragic, he was gone too soon. He had the weight of the world on his shoulders and still managed to smile and do what he loved. RIP River, your family is in my prayers.

oh wow he was so breathtakingly beautiful

A young guy just wanting to be a normal. Hollywood killed him.

He looks so nervous i just want to hug him. His breathing in the mic is so good to hear and his voice so soothing.

He's such a beautiful yet tortured soul and his pain seemed overlooked..

seeing the comments still came from days or months ago i feel like i'm not alone. esp not the only one who decided to watch his videos because i miss him.

His looks and aura are incredible.

He was such a gentleman. And handsome. He is loved and missed.

Bless him, he was so shy in this interview, but somehow exuded a comforting energy. Usually when someone is uncomfortable it makes me feel uncomfortable, but with River its different. Idk how to explain.

Its interesting like he always looks annoyed with something but he is so sweet at the same time. He was so humble and shy.

He seems like such a sweetheart everytime I’ve heard him speak even in movies

If I were there and had the oppurtunity to ask him anything, I would just ask him “How have you been doing?” SUCH A PURE GOOD SOUL

Here after The Oscar's 2020!!! Rip River. Your brother is doing great!! :)

Awe my heart aches for this beautiful soul 😢he was so nice x

Humbleness at this level will NEVER be seen on this planet ever again, sad but true. There will NEVER be someone like River again, and we failed to really appreciate and cherish him the way too short time we had him amongst us. :'(

He was sooooo kind :) he was such a softie. I love him so frickin much !!! Ugh it’s so sad that he died so young.. I wish I could talk to him ❤️💯

If he never died, he would probably be winning oscars like his brother!

RIP man it breaks my heart. Imagine all of the roles he would have slayed

Such a talented man gone too soon. His brother is a great actor as well, if he could see all the great this his brother has accomplished from Gladiator to the upcoming Joker movie, he would be so proud of him ! RIP River Phoenix !!!

Very similar to his brother.. not needing the validation of a trophy & that stage ... he did it for the love of the ART!

Such a delicate, fragile and beautiful man.

seems like he was a really special guy, not only was he very cute and unique, but he also was a very kind and humble person, he did his last movie to get money for his younger sister to go to college, he worked mostly to get money for his family, and cared a lot about everything surrounding him, family, friends, the environment and also the animals since he was a vegan since he was little. also was apparently a sweetheart to all his fans. I wasn’t born yet when he died but I would have loved to meet him and give him a hug, it’s really sad to see what happened to him. Rest In Peace, River ❤

He was so gorgeous, kind and PURE ❤how can one miss and love someone so much we never even met....

It's hard to believe this was only 3 years after he did stand by me, he looks as if he aged about 20 years.

He seemed so vulnerable but had to keep it strong. I wish & really wish if only we could be given a chance to have even one more day with him. 😟 It's been more than 20 years & I'm still mourning. 😭

So beautiful,so humble,so kind and this is why i named my first born after River

Dam he is unreal 😭 😍

You perfect buetiful man hope you found peace in heaven river you sure deserve it 💖💖💖

He looked a little irritated with the guy putting a time limit on the questions, he looked like he liked answering questions he just didn't like the time limit aspect

I miss River pheonix, I was 5 when died and it's only now I have started watching his movies and absolutely love them.....

Bring him back to me please I miss him xx ❤️❤️

The first 30 sec blew my mind away! What a thoughtful artist!

And now there is his nephew little River.

His voice 😍 wow

I love him so deeply. I was 3 years old in 1989. I was so madly in love with him at 5 lol. If only i had a chance to speak with him older. Rip River

I was 5 when he died. Too bad because of pressure and burden he carried, he became so stressed and wanting to achieve everything for his family. Love ya River I really do. Your movies such as Stand by me and dogfight always make me laugh and sad .

For having zero education he has a way with words well articulated. The way that people in Hollywood self medicate. Too bad his life was short & ruined by such learned behavior

He’s way too beautiful. Rest In Peace we love you river !

A really true angel 😭❤ I miss him so much 😭❤.

if he was still Alive I think he would be the best actor of his generation

MY LIFE,MY FUCKING LIFE

"He'll be here for 5 minutes so ask your questions." Me: Do you know I love you?

He would be one of the most phenomenal actors today if he was still alive RIP River

i miss riv so bad.. he died a little before i was born i never got to meet him. one day :)

R.I.P. River. ☮️♥️✌🏻

He jokes about playing a “cruel bastard” but he really did. In 1991’s “Dogfight”. He did a great job once again.

It's been awhile since I've watched one of my many favorite peeps/there r so many good ones to reminisce with,they give me comfort

River❤️❤️❤️🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️

I love him!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Beautiful😍😍😍

Love River ♥️

My dear sweet older brother from another mother. River ❤. A beautiful old soul

He’s amazing!!

River ❤️

a genuine soul

He was not a greedy shark yearning for only fame ...He had a more wider view about life and the world.

I love him but I never got a chance to know him. Missing you River

I love you River😭

Un angel

I was a teen when he died and I felt it so deeply I was crying for more than a week. This is so bizarre to not even know a person and would never meet him and still feel this way. I am 47 now and still cry when watching this video. So bizarre. 😢 R.I.P River.

You made my day with this video :)

i love you river

I love you River.

He always seemed so sad,if only someone had asked him are you ok.

Fucking damn! He is SO fucking FINE! Such a sad loss!

I luv his voice…a soft Bronx accent, so gentle yet strong. So handsome! Unfortunately I love you to death was a dud

Despite how handsome River is, I never had a crush on him (my best friend did). And I certainly don't see him that way now. If anything, I feel parental and big sisterly toward him (even though he's older than me) and just wish he were alive, happy, and thriving. I can't explain why I feel that way about him. It's not just because he's gone, as other celebs are too and I don't feel much about it. And it's not because of his looks. (I don't feel romantic or sexual toward him). I almost think it has to do with knowing his background before he became a child actor, the whole thing of busking in the streets with his siblings and just not having a very normal childhood. I swear, you just want to hold him and take care of him.

May those involved in his murder suffer with the karma. Jealousy kills..and it certainly wasn't outside his close circle.

The moment River walked in the you can see he's thinking "ah for fuck sake"

Inesquecível em mim❤

I AM UPSET

本当に演技が上手くて驚きました。どんな人間にもなれる。

2021でも、このセンスはカッコいい。

Que saudade 😔 meu amor

"Um" 🥰

if only I could hear the questions a bit better

🎉 River Phoenix... Love! Allie! 6/16/2023,8:24 pm.

He looks uncomfortable

He and Elliott Smith are both the same in character, talent and sensitivity

RIVER JUDE PHOENIX 23 DE AGOSTO DE 1970 31 DE OCTUBRE DE 1993 53 AÑOS 23 AÑOS 30 AÑOS

Ривер очарователен... Как красив тембр его голоса! ♥️ ♥️ ♥️

It's like they brought in a wild deer and bombarded it with questions.

I always liked River Phoenix. Have u ever thought of that?

Hi　He never similed due to maybe his sad background. I think the entertainment industry and media beatifies him although I thank you for posting this one. Does anyone know his KZfaq clips which has his smiles? Please let me know.

Joaquin Phoenix WIN the Oscars

this interview gives me anxiety ngl, he seems stressed and confused and not healthy :(( his breathing- so sad fly high angel

l love you muito l love you vida

I think I'm searching for some way that I could move on from him Because I can't find a reason why I miss him so much I wasn't even born when he was here Now I have 20 y And I keep thinking that I could have been in the world at the same time that he was I wish I could ask him about how he was doing I wish I could have a chance to talk to him about anything Could be the air or protecting the animals Or whatever he wanted to Or just about how I will miss him forever It's a strange feeling what I'm experiencing How can I deal with it?

epilepsia

I'm openly gay and 31 and use to dress like a girl in my teenage years, gosh River Phoenix is so cute.

He looks high af. Let me balance this by saying he's like this in all the interviews i've seen with him, even when he was really young so maybe that's just his vibe. Fun fact : Squall Leonhart from Final Fantasy VIII has his face modelled on River.

🖤🖤🖤🖤💔💔💔💔🕊️🕊️🕊️

anyone know where he got his sweater?

💔
