My opinion about the movie Stand by Me
Image
I've never had friends again like the ones I had when I was 12. My God, does anyone have them?".
With this nostalgic reflection, performed by Richard Dreyfuss' voice-over, Stand by Me (1986) culminates, a special and wonderful film that has earned, on its own merits, its place among the best of the 80s.
Today we are going to unravel the ingredients that made this perfect recipe obtain such magnificent results, not only at an artistic level, but also by settling in the hearts of the spectators who, generation after generation, find in the film the true meaning of the word friendship.
The adolescent, all unconditional camaraderie and sincerity, far from any interest or duplicity.

The first thing that strikes us about this project is the origin of its story, a novel with autobiographical overtones entitled The Body, by Stephen King.
This writer, a true bestseller, is most famous for his horror novels, which began to be adapted to film successively after the great success of Carrie (1976, Brian De Palma).
Hollywood is capable of recognizing the goose that lays the golden egg a mile away and did so with King.

The Shining (1980, Stanley Kubrick), Christine (1983, John Carpenter), Cujo (1983, Lewis Teague) or The Dead Zone (1983, David Cronenberg) paid good dividends at the box office and, practically all of them, are considered classics of horror cinema today.
With Stand by Me, however, we discover a more emotional Stephen King.
