River was a highly sensitive actor, and I think he could have captured the soul of a poet more completely than DiCaprio. However, I have to say DiCaprio did his best (although his youth and acting inexperience at the time do show through). River was wise beyond his years in comparison.

I am a Frenchman and Rimbaud lover and I certainly did not mind the adorable Leonardo DiCaprio playing Arthur Rimbaud, especially as he plays him so well, so intensely.
River Fenix was seen in too few films to say much about him. He was kind of all-American, Anglo-Saxon. Leo is more exotic and more strange-looking, though his actual ressemblance to Arthur Rimbaud is slight.
This is Leo's greatest film so far.

why didn't I post in this thread before???
I lurve Rivdog (Laura made this collaboration). I think he was an outstanding actor and Leo is the only actor that matched him at his young age. I have all of Rivers movies and you only have to watch Jimmy Reardon, Stand By Me, Mosquito Coast and running on empty to see his brilliance.
I love River so much. He was a sweet, gorgeous soul. RIP Rio.

river phoenix is my fav actor and i think it would have been good if he was in it but i cant say if he would have been better than leo.and i think leo gives off this feeling of greatness.leo looks the part as well he looks like he could be a writter and i dont think there's much point in saying it should have been river, it wasnt river because river died. i also think that leo is a river phoenix fan.by the way scoripio1964, river was gonna have christan slater's part not tom cruise's part in interview with a vampire.
