River Phoenix was such an amazing actor at such a young age. I watched stand by me today for the first time, i know :O i have never watched it before but i wanted to wait and watch it at the right time as i had been told by my mum and dad it was a tear jerker movie. Ive blogged before that i love 80’s movies and stand by me was no exception :) Even though River died from an overdose it does not take away the fact that he had such a great talent and that he died at such a young age. He truly was an amazing young actor :)
