6am in Nagano…  I shot these all within 1 block of each other on the same street while traveling on assignment last month through Japan.

“The campfire scene was the last scene filmed, at the insistence of River Phoenix. Van Sant had written this scene as just a passing fancy where Mike hits on Scott because he’s bored and horny, as he hadn’t originally conceived their characters as gay or straight: in his mind, they viewed sex only as a job. But River had rewritten the campfire scene in private, on little scraps of paper, to explore his character further and the two boys’ relationship under the dynamic of an unreciprocated love. Van Sant liked what River presented, but didn’t know if Keanu Reeves would be up for it. River assured him that he’d already privately talked to Keanu about it, and he was fine with everything. Gus Van Sant had to give complete faith to River, since he was completely left out of the loop on the whole scene.”
