My Own Private Idaho
1991 | R | 1 hr 41 mins
Directed by: Gus Van Sant
Starring: River Phoenix, Keanu Reeves
Loosely based on William Shakespeare’s Henry IV, Parts 1 & 2, My Own Private Idaho stars River Phoenix and Keanu Reeves in this haunting tale from Gus Van Sant about two young street hustlers: Mike Waters, a sensitive narcoleptic who dreams of the mother who abandoned him, and Scott Favor, the wayward son of the mayor of Portland and the object of Mike’s desire.
Navigating a volatile world of junkies, thieves, and johns, Mike takes Scott on a quest along the grungy streets and open highways of the Pacific Northwest, in search of an elusive place called home. Visually dazzling and thematically groundbreaking, My Own Private Idaho is a deeply moving look at unrequited love and life on society’s margins.
