Any guy can relate to this film. It's as simple as that. Based on a short story by Stephen King, this is adventure of four young boys who head out to find a missing body. A truly endearing film that will leave almost every guy a tad nostalgic.

This is one of the best movies.
It's such an amazing coming of age film.

This is a classic and it actually changed my life. Can't explain why here.......not enough space......but it did.

This is an adorable movie. Everyone should see it, love it, own it. It is a classic. And Rivers Phoenix as a little boy! OMG. I miss that actor.

JAM PACKED WITH AN ALL STAR CAST STAND BY ME IS MORE THAN A CLASSIC IT'S A MOMENT IN TIME WE'LL NEVER GET BACK! THIS IS THE STORY OF 4 BOYS WHO ON THEIR ROAD TO DISCOVERING THEMSELVES ALSO HAVE TO DEAL WITH ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIPS AND DEATH! FRIENDSHIPS ARE TESTED AND MEN ARE BORN!

Another GREAT GREAT 80's movie. Its Now and Then but in boy form! (via amazon.com)

Stand By Me is based off a Stephen King short story, so you know its going to be a little effed and short on the sweetness/ sentimentality. Four boys go on journey to find a dead body that has been rumored on the D.L. to be rotting out in the middle of nowhere. Eww.
Great 80's movie starring a pudgy Jerry O'Connell (Sliders/ Crossing Jordan), a tween River Pheonix, Will Wheaton (Star Trek: TNG), and Corey Haim. (via Amazon)
