The truth is often terrifying, which I think is one of the motifs of Larry and Andrew`s cinema. The cost of knowledge is an important theme. In the second and third films, they explore the consequences of Neo`s choice to know the truth. It`s a beautiful, beautiful story.
- Keanu Reeves(On River Phoenix) "The nicest memory I have of him is when we went down to his family`s property in Costa Rica, and we`d eat these mangoes for breakfast. River had them dripping all over him. When he ate, he ate with his hands. For me, he`ll always be that beautiful, drippy mess."
