I don't really understand why this movie is credited since it's unfinished...and how come there's the plot summary and some quotes?So someone must have seen it!They should delete it from Rio's filmography...because the director isn't going to release it in any way...DAMN,THAT'S NOT FAIR THOUGH!

I know this is a completely different subject but why does everyone say River was James Dean of our generation... no he;s River of our generation!

I was insulting James Dean! I was just saying, River wasn't the James Dean of our generation!

... but to confirm that it was unfinished, you'd have to first visit its individual page. His official CV on here gives no clue of its status.

It deserves mention as a piece of information related to River's career, but I don't think it belongs on his resume.

If he didn't finish it, then I don't think it belongs on any otherwise complete list of HIS work.

Heck, Silent Tongue is chronologically placed ahead of this, and yet that IS finished! It makes no sort of sense whatsoever.

i think it should still be on his filmography, at the top of the list of course. and credited as "unfinished".
why does it say "1993" beside it? aren't the dates beside the movies the release dates?

... I agree with all of that; it's what I was thinking. Thank you!

I would guess that because it was never realeased that it occupies the position on his list when it was actually filmed.

I don't think it should be removed from his filmography. He filmed it...or at least the best part of it. And it exists, somewhere as a piece of River Phoenix's work.

Unless IMDB creates a new section in everyone's filmorgraphy to list unfinished works then it might as well stay where it is. Otherwise we would have no clue it even existed at all if we were to look at his filmography. And after all it is a very important part of his body of work.

It's just such a shame that it's not available for release, even unfinished I would like to see it.
