"I'm not a bully, I'm a liar"
Therein starts one of the greatest scenes in all of cinema. River Phoenix's acting of this scene is one of the best performances by an actor in the history of film. You can feel the emotion, in his voice; see it in his body. This is a good film. sometimes great, that brings to life the idealism of the sixties, but what makes it stand out is the brilliant performance of Phoenix. This scene, one of the most romantic ever put to film, rips my heart out every time I see it.
