    The movie was originally called The Body. Keifer Sutherland (the bully) was teaching the song "Stand By Me" to River Phoenix (the friend that died) on guitar and while they were playing it, the director passed by and renamed the movie to what it is now. The director said he hasn't heard this song in a long time. I read that somewhere and made this movie so much better. Thanks for your reaction. Priceless.

    "I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?"
    Stand by Me is a timeless film. Stephen King's story is skillfully brought to the screen under the direction of Rob Reiner and the 1950s are brought back to life just as successfully as Stephen King so often does in his stories and novels, with the slicked back hair, the hot rods, in the film and excellent '50s soundtrack.
    Also, the saddest part of this film is about how life causes even great friends to drift apart. Something you really don't think about until years after it happens is that one day someone you knew turned left, you turned right and that was the last time you ever saw them.

    Sean Astin auditioned for this film, but had the unfortunate timing of having to go after River Phoenix. He said that when he walked in, almost everyone in the room was crying and dabbing away tears from the performance River had given. He didn't say which scene it was, but I'd HAVE to think it was the campfire scene.

    I'm SO excited you guys are reacting to this film! River Phoenix (who plays Chris Chambers in the film) was the biggest young star of the late 80's/early 90's. He died 7 years after this movie when he was just 23 years old of a drug overdose outside of The Viper Room in LA. The Viper Room was a nightclub owned by Johnny Depp. His brother is Joaquin Phoenix (The Joker) . He's the one who made the 911 call when he died.
    Also, Stand by Me was loosely based on Stephen King's childhood.

    The one scene with the deer never fails to make me ponder the meaning behind it...
    It wasn't integral to the plot or moved the story forward in anyway, but it's my favorite scene. I always considered it Gordie's transition beyond childhood. A kid would be beyond ecstatic to share with anyone about a magical moment that had just happened to them. But he kept it to himself... I wonder what other people think about that scene.

    Director Rob Reiner named his production company Castle Rock Entertainment after the town in this movie.
    Stand by Me really captures the way boys that age act around each other. I had friends like that.
    When Rob Reiner finished the movie he did a private screening for Steven King. When it was over. King didn't say anything at first, and Reiner noticed that King was shaking. After a while, King told Reiner it was the best adaptation of one of his works he'd ever seen.

    On the special features of the DVD Rob Reiner tells the story about how during the shooting of the scene when River Phoenix tells the truth of the stolen school money, he couldn't get his tears flowing. So Reiner pulled him aside and told him to think about the first time he was betrayed by an adult. That worked. It worked so well in fact, that River became an emotional mess and couldn't stop crying. So they had to wrap shooting until the next day. Reiner also said River never told him what memory he had thought of.

    If someone summarized the basic plot of this film, you would think there's not enough story there to contain a feature length film. A group of boys follow the train tracks some miles into the countryside to find the dead body of a boy hit by a train. It is so simple. What makes it great is the characters, their relationships to each other, and the emotion, the feeling, radiating off the screen in several of the scenes.

    I’m totally with you about friendships. This movie really makes you think about it more than you usually might do, doesn’t it? Even if they may come and go, even if they remain but may fluctuate in closeness, it doesn’t make them unimportant; and the truly real ones, no matter how long or brief, what fate may bring, are especially _that_ important. Be a friend, make a friend, and keep the ones you can. Thanks for sharing the experience with us.

    #3 in my favorite movies of all time. It hits a little harder when you were the same age as these characters in 1986 (when the time was set in the early 60's). My friends and I went into the woods and explored train tracks (perhaps dangerously) to find adventure like Gordy, Chris, Vern, and Teddy.
    I see myself in all four of them.

    I was 8 years old when this movie came out. I kind of remember watching it in the theater. I think the thing about this movie that impressed me most as a kid was how real it felt because the kids in this movie were kids like me. they acted the way me and my friends acted. They talked like me and my friends talked. The only thing that didn’t feel realistic at the time was the ending. because I always assume that I would be friends with my friends all the way until I was an old man. I didn’t realize that as time moves on people drift in and out of your life and sure enough just like at the end of this movie all of my friends from back then are now gone. Some are dead, some just have lives of their own now and don’t have time to visit with me anymore. I miss them all.

    i said this in regards to your "its a wonderful life" reaction...but y'all are the perfect reactors for this movie because of the empathy you show every single time. especially for this film, especially in regards to children. this is such a beautiful movie and has been a favorite of mine for years and years. i cry every single time.
    apparently it was a very healing, emotional movie for the cast to film as ell. all of them, with the exception of jerry (vern) had very, very difficult childhoods. jerry even apologized later in life saying he was so sorry he couldnt help them more. will comforted him and told him he was just a child himself, not to hold on to that guilt. rob reiner the director worked hard at making the kids feel safe and comfortable on set. he said one of his biggest and painful regrets is while filming the train scene, was he yelled at the boys. i think it speaks volumes that that's one of his regrets. when you think about how too often adults just speak so callously to children, knowing that in the heat of the moment, he he yelled and it's something he regrets to this day is just very touching.
    to this day i still carry chris's words to gordie "no man, he just doesn't know you" in my heart in regards to my own relationship with my dad. i think this is such a beautiful film and i am so thrilled to see your reaction to it. i'll have to grab some tissues first!

In fact, your reaction made me realize the parallels between me and this film and propelled me to write this. I also grew up in a small town in Oregon, the setting of this film. But most of all, I never had friends like the ones I had when I was 12. I'm 33 now, probably around the same age as Adult Gordie in this film. Thank you both for this.

I love that people are still discovering what he has described as both the best on--set experience of his childhood (real friends! A compassionate, fatherly director!) and pretty much the only form of therapy as his parents were actively using and abusing him. I'm so glad he and Jerry are still buds as adults.
