has abstract	Michael Waters is a fictional character in Gus Van Sant's My Own Private Idaho, portrayed by River Phoenix. He is a sensitive, homeless teenage hustler who suffers from narcolepsy, directly foiling his best friend, Scott Favor (Keanu Reeves), a type-A personality hustler from a rich, influential family. A vagabond searching for his mother, Mike proclaims himself a "connoisseur of roads" because he has been "tasting roads all [his] life." Mikey remains one of the defining characters of New Queer Cinema and, due to the impressive critical reception, is a crucial role in River Phoenix's success and influence as an actor. For example, Eric Alan Edwards, one of the film's directors of photography, said that Phoenix "really wore the role" because "he looked like a street kid." (en)
