    I think omitting important parts of the story is disrespectful. That 911 call adds context and weight to the story. It helps people empathize with a distraught brother who is normally an untouchable star that people barely recognize as human a lot of the time. Hearing that call makes it easier for the ignorant masses to see him as the person he is. Plus, it’s important info that I would rather be aware of, than not. Idk what it is with people being so touchy that they would rather censor the world.

Wanted to make his world happy and peaceful. Suffered very much at an young age which he didn't deserved though. Got an Oscar nomination at an young age. And, all I know is, if he was alive, he would have been a greatest actor, winning Oscar. And, an inspiration to many, many. Miss you ,River. Come soon to Hollywood.

    I was 14/15 when River died, my friends and I idolised him and Keanu Reeves, we watched and rewatched as many of his films as we could get our hands on. My own private Idaho was one of our all time favourites. My desk was covered in quotes from their movies, my walls plastered with their posters. When River died it was for me the first time one of my hero’s died. I remember being intently disappointed in him that he died from an overdose. I will never forget River Phoenix for all those reasons and now as an adult I can understand more about his life and how things ended as they did, I can understand films like My own Private Idaho in a way I couldn’t back then. He will always be such an important part of my life and memories. My best friend who idolised him with me died a year ago (her first anniversary is in two days, the timing of this vid feels personal) thinking of him makes both my heart ache for her and burst with glorious happy memories of our adolescence. They will forever be tied up together in my heart.

When he saw that River was continuing to drink he should have stopped him. So I'm sorry I hold the guy accountable for Rivers death. River told them he felt he was overdosing right there and then they should have got him some help. 10:01 he wanted to keep his memory alive so was he trying to clean his conscience

He was very clear about his continuing Higher Purpose to help end oppression on this planet, as part of the Mass Awakening which is just in the beginning stages. I never really knew much about his history growing up or this specific cult. He was so clear and accurate, told me the name of it, that they were forced to have sex as kids. Wow. Moving with conviction even in the afterlife. No wonder he was doing such hard core drugs. Drugs and trauma go hand in hand. What an amazing soul. A true Angel.

The first was The Basketball Diaries, to which Phoenix had long been attached as the lead actor. Phoenix had also expressed a great interest in the film project which became Total Eclipse, about the French poet Arthur Rimbaud. Finally, Canadian director James Cameron had hoped to cast Phoenix in his ambitious film project Titanic

    During the performance by P, Forrest said that Phoenix tapped him on the shoulder to tell him he was not feeling well and that he thought he had overdosed. Forrest said to Phoenix that he didn't think that he was overdosing because he could stand and talk. Nonetheless, he offered to take Phoenix home, but Phoenix declined, saying he was feeling better. A few moments later, Forrest said that a commotion erupted in the club and he went outside to find Mathis screaming as her boyfriend was lying on the sidewalk having convulsions. Joaquin called 9-1-1, but was unable to determine whether Phoenix was breathing. His sister Rain proceeded to give him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.[40] When the ambulance arrived, Phoenix was still alive and Flea went with him to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. When Forrest arrived at the hospital, he saw Mathis standing in the hallway crying.[41] Further attempts to resuscitate Phoenix at the hospital were unsuccessful. He was pronounced dead at 1:51 a.m. PST on the morning of October 31, 1993 at the age of 23.[42][43] In the 2013 book Last Night at the Viper Room: River Phoenix and the Hollywood He Left Behind, Gavin Edwards blames Frusciante for being the one who gave Phoenix the drugs that took his life. In an interview with director William Richert, Edwards discusses Phoenix's death, stating that Samantha Mathis also accused Frusciante. River didn't want to go that night. She (Mathis) offered to take Joaquin (Leaf back then) and Rain for him since Joaquin was still underage. River changed his mind at the last minute and ran to meet them at the elevator. So River arrived with Samantha, Joaquin, and Rain, they got a booth in the back and he waited to be invited up to play. He stayed sober because he was planning on getting onstage with Flea. After he found out that there is not enough room onstage for him, he was going to take his guitar back to his table and play." According to Richert, after reaching the club, Mathis said John Frusciante approached their table, offered River a little plastic blue cup and said "drink this, Riv, it'll make you feel fabulous." River drank it and suffered an immediate reaction. His neck bulged, his back twitched, and he complained "something’s wrong." He then vomited at the table.[44] Richert said that Mathis later changed her story, no longer mentioning Frusciante by name. Richert also mentioned that following the death of Phoenix, Frusciante became paranoid, and threatened to kill himself because he feared that he would be arrested. He claimed that Frusciante locked himself for a few days in the mansion where the Red Hot Chili Peppers recorded their 1991 album Blood Sugar Sex Magik. Richert said that Johnny Depp had to console Frusciante, and assure him that nobody was going to jail. At the time, Phoenix's father was also angry with Frusciante over his son's death, and in an interview stated: "Tell him if I find him I'm going to kill him. He's very rich and very young, 23 like River, but he's a terrible addict who has become a pusher..." The family never pressed charges against anyone for their son's death.[44] In 2018, Samantha Mathis said that she and Phoenix had originally only intended to drop off Phoenix's siblings at the Viper Room on the way to her house, but Phoenix decided to stay for a while after he was asked to perform with the band. She insisted that during their time dating she had known him to be sober, but "In the days before he died, though, I knew something was going on...I didn't see anyone doing drugs [that night] but he was high in a way that made me feel uncomfortable."[45] She added that "the heroin that killed him didn't happen until he was in the Viper Room. I have my suspicions about what was going on, but I didn't see anything." Mathis went to the bathroom, and on her way back to the table, saw Phoenix apparently engaged in a scuffle with another person. The bouncers removed both men from the club. Mathis shouted at the other man "What have you done? What are you on?", only to be told by another person "Leave him alone, you're spoiling his high." By that point, according to her account, Phoenix had fallen to the ground and begun to convulse.[46] According to Gibby Haynes, the band was performing their song "Michael Stipe" while Phoenix was outside the venue having seizures on the sidewalk.[47] When the news filtered through the club, Flea left the stage and rushed outside. By that time, paramedics had arrived on the scene and found Phoenix turning cyanotic, in full cardiac arrest and in asystole. They administered medication in an attempt to restart his heart. The following day, the club became a makeshift shrine, with fans and mourners leaving flowers, pictures and candles on the sidewalk, as well as graffiti messages on the walls of the venue.[48] A sign was placed in the window that read, "With much respect and love to River and his family, The Viper Room is temporarily closed. Our heartfelt condolences to all his family, friends and loved ones. He will be missed."[49] The club remained closed for a week. Depp continued to close the club every year on October 31 until selling his share in 2004.

    Parents like his. Having children. Not working to support them. Children working to support parents. It happens. Like it happened to the Bottom bunch, it also happened to Jeannette Walls, the author of The Glass Castle. It's sad. It's pitiable. It's irresponsible.

    River , was one of those once in a life time talents , he went through so much real life struggles, he and his family , I think that is why he us so damn talented and believable in his rolls , because he went through the struggles in reality.. so he could relate to his performances.. he was a child actor , and a lot of child actors can’t handle the pressures of fame’ look at “ Drew Barrymore “ Macaulay Culkin’ and Edward furlong’ Lindsey Lohan, etc.. River was a great actor and a great person , he’ll be remembered for eternity and beyond .. like Bubby Holly said’ relax man’ the sky belongs to the stars, 🌟 right! “ RIP Riv”

    River Phoenix and Sean Connery both starred in Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade. River as a Young Indy and Sean as Henry Jones Sr., Indy's father. And both of them died on October 31, the day of Halloween. River in 1993 of an overdose, and Sean in 2020 of pneumonia. My condolences to both of them. 🙏🏾🙏🏾

    Joaquin wasn't born with that name his parents named him Leaf. So when you specifically mentioned his siblings and their unusual names, it's weird that you didn't go with his real name.

    Actually I believe they got it right, and it's the other way around: Joaquin is what his parents named him, and then he went by Leaf for a while presumably because he wanted a cool hippie nature name like his siblings :) It was actually River, I believe, who encouraged him to go back to Joaquin!

    He was named Joaquin. He wanted to be called leaf, because all his siblings had names like, River and Summer. He changed it to Joaquin again at the age of 16 after his brother urged him to start acting again and use his birth name since he was sure that this would be a big name in the future.
