The dialogue is based on Shakespeare's Henry IV.
Drugstore Cowboy is definitely Van Sant's best. It's in my top 30-40 or so.
My Own Private Idaho probably is his second best movie, but that's by virtue of Phoenix and of his others being just that bad. Elephant is good too though, I suppose.
Van Sant has been a big disappointment.

That's Keanu's fault. Worst actor ever.

He was great as a kid when he was in River's Edge. I agree with the general consensus though that pretty much all of his other roles Keanu has done haven't been too good and that he gives new meaning to turning in a wooden/emotionally dead performance.
