Knowing River (River Phoenix ) stemmed from an accident, attracted by a poster of his,

At that time, I didn't even know that he was no longer alive. I thought that such a handsome man would be a standard "little fresh meat"!

Also because of this reason, I was attracted by his beauty, it should be said that I was fascinated by his handsomeness.

After checking his profile, I didn't expect to like it more, because not only his appearance, but also his kind heart,

Like the moral of his mother's name, River Phoenix , he also has a specific meaning:

Free, uninhibited, gentle and pure.

He is the youngest Venetian actor in history.

Also an activist for animal rights, environmental protection, a well-known spokesperson for PETA, and was awarded the Humanitarian Award in 1992,

Everyone in the world said that the entire 1990s belonged to him. Because of his handsome face and superb acting skills, he was called "James Dean of the 1990s" and "Hollywood Talented Actor".

However, he and Keanu Reeves' masterpiece "My Own Idaho" , Hongyanxiu has waited until now......

The film mainly tells the story of two male service workers who came from very different backgrounds, but were also reduced to the bottom.

Mike (River Phoenix) and Scott (Keanu Reeves) love story,

The film was released in the United States on September 29, 1991, and won the Best Actor, International Critics Award, Best Screenplay, Best Music, Best Cinematography and other awards in one fell swoop.

Although the two are both male service workers who have been reduced to the streets, because of the huge difference in family background and psychological motivation, they are also reduced to the end of the world.

Mike suffered from severe narcolepsy and would suddenly faint anytime, anywhere.

At the beginning of the film, he passes out on a road called Idaho that he calls "like a fucked-up face" ,

Shortly after waking up, he fainted again while serving in the house of a rich and beautiful woman.

Every time he fainted, the figure of his mother would definitely appear in his mind, full of broken fragments of childhood,

The green house where the mother and him lived, the little windmill, and the mother in the white dress, holding him beating,

That is the poetic pastoral state of Idaho, and it is also the harbor that he cannot go back to in his heart.

All of this motivated him to find his long-lost mother, and to return to the beautiful past.

But the reality was cruel. He didn't know what he was facing, and he didn't know the real reason why his mother ran away from home.

But maybe, he knew it, but he didn't want to face it, so every time he saw his brother, he would twitch, faint, and be complained by his brother, but that didn't stop him from looking for his mother. pace.

Scott is the son of the mayor of Portland, heir to a wealthy family, but because he hates his father, he is willing to degenerate,

Mike sees him as a confidant and lover, but Scott doesn't accept it at all,

He can accompany him to find his mother, he can work with him, he can help him find a safe place to stay, and bully Bobby with him,

But no matter what, he couldn't fall in love with him.

On the way to Mike's brother's house, they slept outdoors one night. In the bonfire, Mike confessed:

"I don't know, I mean to me, I can love someone, even if it's not for money. I love you, and you don't have to pay me. I'd love to kiss you, goodnight."

But Scott refused,

He said he could only do that for money, but couldn't accept him, they were just good friends. (Scott big straight man)

Therefore, on the next journey, it can be seen predictably that the two of them will part ways. Even if Mike is unwilling in his heart, it cannot change the fact.

He accompanied Mike all the way from Portland to Seattle and from Idaho to Italy, and they were as friendly as ever,

Until Scott met her,

Mike found the address of her new home in Italy according to the address on the postcard left by her mother, but when he arrived, her mother had already left.

There was only one young girl there, and it was the girl who made Scott fall in love and never had anything to do with Mike.

Because they were penniless and needed to save money to go back to Portland, the girl just happened to have a crush on Scott...

It is said that the relationship between men and women can easily mutate due to the long contact time, from good feelings to admiration, dependence, to hopeless liking and love,

So did Scott and the girl, and it didn't take long for them to find it hard to part with each other.

Mike also saw it, but he was not the kind of person who would easily expose his emotions, nor would he make trouble unreasonably. When he saw the girl crying one morning, he gently stepped forward to comfort him. Say:

"I understand how you feel."

"I think I'm in love," she said.

Yes, he understands, she is in love, hasn't he just experienced this feeling?

It's just that he is destined to be sad alone, because no one understands him, unlike her, he can still become a rich wife of a rich family with Scott in the end.

He knows too much and too little. What he desires is very simple, but he has never had the chance to get it. Whether it is the warmth of family or the nourishment of love, everything is too far away from him.

Soon after, Scott and the girl left Italy, inheriting his father's estate,

But he had another father, one who was still waiting for him, the street bum Bobby, when he became a rich man and rescued him from his misery,

But what he never expected was that Scott didn't take him to heart, as he told him before, as long as he had money, he would become a completely different person, no longer with this scumbag. , Low-level life has something to do with it.

He's just here to experience the thrill of his dissolute youth, and once he's back in his class, he'll definitely turn his back on him and never help Bobby or anyone he knew from the past.

He really did what he said. He put on an enviable three-piece suit, took his new wife, walked into a high-end restaurant, and chatted with people in the upper class.

Stop talking to the Bobby he thinks he "loves him more than his dad",

When Bobby went in to find him, he also made it clear that he didn't know him, and asked the squire to drive them out,

Bobby was so angry because his hope was lost,

Before he died, he kept shouting to God , "God, God, God..."

    ["I love you but don't want you to pay"" is the most beautiful thing he can say to Mike who has lived on his body since he was a child. 】--Comment

    A pseudo-vagrancy looking for a way home, screaming and crashing, but it seems to be dodging. The camera hovers like a kite wherever it can, sweeping across the cloud-covered sky, the row upon row of buildings, the poisonous and tempered body, and the smile that's not a smile. wall. Nostalgia is the feeling that a person deviates from the original state. The farther away, the stronger the feeling. When everything is in its own right, nostalgia no longer exists, and there is hope along with the fall of love.
