Here are the five greatest moments from Stand By Me that will immediately want to make you re-watch the film all over again.
This week marks 30 years since the release of Stand By Me, the ultimate coming-of-age comedy drama that’s all provoked by one simple question: “You guys want to see a dead body?”
Still, what made Stand By Me — which grossed $52.3 million from just an $8 million budget after receiving rave reviews — so instantly beloved from its first day of release all the way up to now?
Just as rewarding upon your twelfth as well as first viewing, Stand By Me is right up there with The Shining and The Shawshank Redemption as the greatest Stephen King adaptation ever, something that the writer has admitted himself.
