What My Own Private Idaho Is About
Gus Van Sant's 1991 film follows two young men working the street. One has narcolepsy and is looking for his mother. The other is the son of a wealthy family. The film mixes Shakespeare's text into its scenes; the narrative makes unreturned devotion its real subject. River Phoenix and Keanu Reeves lead. Phoenix was awarded at Venice. Shots of road and sky mark the moments of lost consciousness. Who it's for: those who like American independent cinema. Who it's not for: viewers expecting a straight narrative; the film is deliberately scattered and the drug use is explicit.
