On the bank of a river lies the naked body of a brutally murdered young girl. A group of high school friends must now decide what to do after one of their own confesses to the crime. So starts River’s Edge, Tim Hunter’s winner of the 1987 Independent Spirit Award for Best Film. Featuring Keanu Reeves in a breakthrough role, Dennis Hopper and a gonzo Crispin Glover in a truly unhinged performance of manic unpredictability.
