From a Vanity Fair piece: In keeping with its code-breaking theme, the opening credits of Sneakers has the names of some of the film’s major players presented as anagrams before they get unscrambled: “BLOND RHINO SPANIEL” becomes “PHIL ALDEN ROBINSON,” while “FORT RED BORDER” turns into “ROBERT REDFORD,” and “A TURNIP CURES ELVIS” reveals itself as “UNIVERSAL PICTURES.” Not all cast members got their names shuffled-if they had, the world might have discovered that one anagram for “RIVER PHOENIX” is “VIPER HEROIN X"
Parts like this show just how much of a great shift there was from the 80's to the 90's. Someone may find it to be just a scene with two characters rambling between themselves and maybe it wouldn't have fit in with the rest of the film, but compared to the other deleted scenes, from River's presence, to the camera direction, the improvisation, etc., this movie was overflowing with tension from the ideas that were either a gamble or just inventive. Of course, it couldn't be too scattered, but the right people were involved, even if some dark aspects spilled over into their personal lives. The film had both edge and a fertile flower bed to spring from.
Veno Enoo he made a decision ages ago that when he turned 20 or 21 I can't remember that he would leave his old life be what his father wanted him to be
There's a clip somewhere on CZcams where River, as acting prep for this movie, interviews boys off the street - boys for whom this movie is a reality. If you watch the clip and watch this scene, you'll see he has taken over their personalities to the T - they are he and he is them. Genius.
Eternal River I know man soon we will have answers soon the world will change we will reintigrate with our souls and therefore rivers soul will make himself know. To all his fans friends and family
Eternal River that is the same question I have and many, many other fans of River's..I just don't understand it. And they don't seem to talk publicly about River either.
She did a special video for his 50th birthday to. In her Instagram she is always posting photos of River and some fan arts (@rainjphoenix). And the CZcams channel is actually hers and her’s sisters Summer. There’s an interview with Joaquin where they talk about River and discuss how it’s like to talk about him after his death. And she composed some music about him too (there’s an entire album called river). I advise you to listen the music call “Immolate”. (English isn’t my first English, I’m sorry if i made any mistakes).
I’m from Portland and this is one of my favorite locations. For anyone wondering, it’s called Cathedral Park and the bridge is called St. John’s Bridge. Lovely place.
The full scene is them having sex. This is them hanging out after. I think it would have muddled the plot too much as the main plot focuses more on River/Keanu. This scene gives too much screentime to a secondary friendship. Maybe they thought it would be confusing for him to be bi? Though it makes sense that his character would be. Sex becomes weirdly disconnected from emotion so that doing it with your friends is just a passtime.
That actually happens in my village. Whenever someone dies, two other people die right after. Not many people live in my village and the church bells always ring when someone dies. It's kinda creepy that so far, most of the time three people died in a row.
@@butterflyjamjar yes baby I understand you he was one of the most beautiful and talented soul of all the time😭❤ I love him so so much I wish that I could bring him back.
Was this scene on the Criterion dvd? I don't think I've seen it before. Thanks for sharing. As a Portland native, it's so weird to watch this movie every few years and see how much of the city has changed. Hopefully Cathedral Park (where this was filmed) will never change.
carrie anne My God, you I love you. I noticed the same thing (I feel less alone) 😂 it has practically the same voice that Dylan (I noticed in "Dogfight") And I'm also a fan of both, I like them a lot. 😍💚💚
carrie anne Especially when he said "My cousin" It makes me think right away when talking about Derek Stiles saying it was his "cousin Miguel" do not you think ?! 😭☺️ :3 😱😍
When he picked that spider from off her face. I have arachnophobia but if he was the one to take the spider off, I think I’d be so taken aback that I wouldn’t care if it was on my face.
I'm sure they're ad-libbing this scene. I kinda hate this film cos I think it triggered his downward spiral. He was such a sensitive, empathic soul and being surrounded by junkie prostitutes would've blackened his soul
this looked so natural...
Cause of him,
I could listen to him talk forever...
D I love his voice so much. It’s just so calming. 🌿
me too his voice is beautiful
Can we all just say that River is amazing
His acting is genius because he's not really acting.
The prototype for that type of acting is James Dean in Giant. See it; it's amazing.
I ve got 15 films bye River good ones part from Stand by Me my all time favourite is Little Nikita
@@Nominay I watched Giant this afternoon, is GREAT. James Dean is GREAT. I am fucking love James Dean and River Phoenix, they are BOSS
@@trevorlarge5228 In Little Nikita he look like the most handsome teenager guy in american film history LOL
@@jzz6342 yes even his hair has it own criticism from movies critics
such an interesting actor to watch. super talented.
its amazing because its like watching two people have a regular conversation.
Kudos to the woman for keeping a straight face when he says, "My aunt died too. She choked on a biscuit."
I couldn’t help but laugh at that part. 😂
i laughed out loud at that one.
I also laughed at that part 😂
At least he didn’t say that she choked on a sausage 🤣
"My number is 3" River died in 1993
Day 31
Year 1993
In age 23
I was thinking of this as well...so ironic

I agree with you very mutch
River still THE BEST and The One and Only forever!
Nobody will can never replace him!
Veno Enoo he made a decision ages ago that when he turned 20 or 21 I can't remember that he would leave his old life be what his father wanted him to be
Veno Enoo bit its sad
FABULOUS, heart breaking. River sure was talented . so sweet
"my aunt died too. She choked on a biscuit." he said it so calm and natural that i laughed so hard I'll go to hell

Having a sad day that you're gone😭 The way you left, the unanswered Q's, why your family doesn't want your music & movies out. Hurts.

Eternal River that is the same question I have and many, many other fans of River's..I just don't understand it. And they don't seem to talk publicly about River either.
Its because they didn't want to capitalize on his death or exploit it. He hated all the Hollywood bs anyway.
His sister Rain is posting some of his music! Her channel is “Launch Left”.

I love River, he is perfection. Just perfection :)

But Portland is a cesspool now.
@@damkayaker You're not wrong... 🤢 But some places still are nice though
this was so natural i could listen to this for 3 more minutes
Man, this guy was the real deal, she’s pretty good too
It was so cute when he removed the spider from her hair
Miss him so much
This scene was filmed under St. John's bridge, Cathedral Park (Oregon) 🎬
Should have kept this scene in!

2:27 river: my lucky number is 3. Born in 23th of august, dies 1993, at the age 23. Oh, river.. :/
And his life path number was 3 too
🥺💔💔
Jessie Thomas (the actress opposite River) was lovely- at least her scene with Keanu (when she's crying and he's trying to comfort her) wasn't cut.
Thank You!!!! Jessie
mizjennie That's you? Wow! Even talking to someone River met once makes me feel closer to him. Do you mind if I ask what he was like?
his aunt choked on a biscuit 😧😕
Opulence Phoenix it sounded funny to me
Yeah how can anyone choke on a biscuit?
@@dinahadjitofi6204 I choked on a Popeye's biscuit once it was way too dry.
@@Iceis_Phoenix Haha we all have dont worry
@@ianmooresguard1721 😆
when he said his lucky number was 3 i teared up💔 rest in peace, river 💗
damn i just witnessed something so amazing
God River was a genius...hero
Natural acting, natural men.
That actually happens in my village. Whenever someone dies, two other people die right after. Not many people live in my village and the church bells always ring when someone dies. It's kinda creepy that so far, most of the time three people died in a row.
Thank you for this very rare video!
River Phoenix forever...
Such a cute scene.
why is this so aesthetic like i-
He was so natural
His voice. 😌
Long hair really suits him well, he’s gorgeous than most of the teens today I guess
So beautiful River
The girl was such a good actress as well, like she really gives me some junkie vibes
I missed you baby boy I'm crying so much 💔💔💔
And me 😥 hes been gone so long 😥 so wish he could come back x
@@butterflyjamjar yes baby I understand you he was one of the most beautiful and talented soul of all the time😭❤ I love him so so much I wish that I could bring him back.
love convos like this
Death comes in threes... he was the third in reality
who were the other two?
Was this scene on the Criterion dvd? I don't think I've seen it before. Thanks for sharing.
As a Portland native, it's so weird to watch this movie every few years and see how much of the city has changed. Hopefully Cathedral Park (where this was filmed) will never change.
Ethan Sloan I agree with you, i saw photos of that park and it seens exactly the same and the bridge is beautiful 🙂
I really see how similar Joaquin's sense of humor is to his here
His voice here reminds me a lot of Dylan O'Brien. I love both very much.
carrie anne My God, you I love you. I noticed the same thing (I feel less alone) 😂 it has practically the same voice that Dylan (I noticed in "Dogfight") And I'm also a fan of both, I like them a lot. 😍💚💚

I agree 100 %
carrie anne i feel like maybe dylan could play him bc he sorta looks like him in a way idk
Veno Enoo pretty sure he got married
River is beautiful ❤❤❤💓💕💕💝
River's So Cute
When he picked that spider from off her face. I have arachnophobia but if he was the one to take the spider off, I think I’d be so taken aback that I wouldn’t care if it was on my face.
3 is my lucky number too :(
What ever it takes to have a nice day 🌹😘😘
I read this part in the script and I was so confused of where this scene was
Koi Dumpster Girl you mean this isn’t improvisation? That’s amazing!
I also thought it was improv
"Death usually comes in threes". You can say that again.
Like having a normal chat with couple of friends just after having sex. That's really something ... Brilliant actors both of em. I miss River so. :(
River era espontaneo e muito talentoso.Tinha uma voz doce e uma risada tao gostosa.
Rosimeri Da Silva You like the River
God I love him
MY AUNT SHE CHOKED ON A BISCUIT
She's pretty. Two flowers swaying in the wind.
We will never get another River Phoenix.
He sounds like Anxiety War, don't you guys think?
I'd never heard of this
I'm sure they're ad-libbing this scene. I kinda hate this film cos I think it triggered his downward spiral. He was such a sensitive, empathic soul and being surrounded by junkie prostitutes would've blackened his soul
I agree! I mentioned in another video that this movie is where he picked up his drug habits. It's sad. 😥
@@cleftheart the start..
She choked on a biscuit 😅
♥️
He talks about everything but his mother, is that a bit too obvs?
Richard Dearnley what do u mean?
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Why did they delete this scene?
Oh hey thats my mom lol
She said, I want to eat your cookies. That's not the lyrics..
Who is the actress?
i wish people would still have conversations like these
waw, that bridge really exists ? Where ?
joythug37 St. Jonh’s bridge, Cathedral Park (Oregan) 🙂
Does anymore who where this bridge is?
St. Johns bridge, Cathedral Park (Oregon)

11 * 11
he was a great actor , despite the shity script in this sceene
actually i think this is not acting , but
real outside film talking ?
I'm fairly sure its improv and exploring the characters. Their dialogue is brilliantly real.
Dylan O'Brien voice
Dylan O'Brien kind of resembles River.
kK
I like 13
If it wasn't for River and his acting this scene would suck, she's weird
Smokers cough
