Reason is everything friend. Joaquin's acting career didn't kick into clutch until AFTER his brother River died, Because that's when he got recognition. Don't get me wrong, but I loved River in "indiana jones" and "Stand by me" to a great extent. But They are actors of 2 different times altogether. Therefore an accurate assumption on whom is the better actor is out of the question, And cannot be made just by seeing 2 or 3 movies of each actor, real Viewing needs to take place when you wish to choose between the two.

Which means Joaquin would be nothing without River. And also false remark about Joaquin Pheonix's acting career, but that's explained later.

Oh, I know, the whole five minutes he was in there was totally fantastic.

Anyway, continue this discussion in the Joaquin Pheonix "fanboy" thread.

Sarcasm? River did his role and he did it right, 5 minutes or no. He made me believe that he was a young harrison ford. It's harder to do a short role, because it's really difficult to analize the character with the few lines and parts you actually have. Trust me, I know this.
