I saw this movie in the theater with two of my best friends. We were all the same age as the kids in the movie and getting ready to go into Junior high. Not only that, my one friend looked just like Vern...I mean just like him! The stocky build, the red cheeks, the haircut, everything! The part where adult Gordy narrating: "...What I heard was 'Chopper! Sick Balls!'" and you see young Gordy scream and run even faster... The entire theater cracked up at that part and I was laughing so hard I couldn't breathe for a moment! This movie will always hold a special place for me because of how much I identified with it when I first saw it and how the story is kind of timeless. It's as good a movie now as it was then, if not, then better.

I agree with what you said about the music. This is one of the best soundtracks ever and doesn’t get enough credit. Every song is perfect, and as a whole it has some of the best songs from that era. I was born in the 70s, but I appreciate that music from the late 50s and early 60s a lot. I watched the movie as a VHS rental with my parents when I was about the same age as the boys in the film. It has always stuck with me. It accurately portrays how boys are with one another, though they have more wisdom than I did. I think that’s dramatic license and is OK for the movie. :) Haha As you said, it’s heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time.

The heartbreaking scene where Chris talks about the teacher stealing the milk money after he tried to return it, Rob Reiner coached him, asking him to think about when an adult had let him down. He was able to do the scene, and cry for real. After the scene, he was still crying, and Rob Reiner went and hugged him and comforted him. He never asked what River was thinking about, but what a powerful moment. Gone too soon.

Wil Wheaton has gone on to say he channeled his own family issues into his performance, mirroring poor Gordy in how his parents were doing him emotional harm. He and River likely didn’t have to act too hard to bring those feelings to the surface.

The story also had a special meaning to Rob Reiner who felt the same about his father Carl as Gordie did about his father. I had read that scene near the end where Chris says that Gordie's father loves him, but he doesn't know him was based on a real conversation Rob had with one of his friends.

You made a great observation that adults often forget how much is going on in the heads of kids and how many emotions they're feeling. I know when I saw this movie at age 10 there was nothing surprising or shocking about how the kids were acting at all. They seemed like completely normal kids, some of the more realistic kids I'd ever seen in a movie. They had real-life family problems, not just the problems that the movie has created for them to solve. The only unusual thing was trying to imagine the grown-up Gordy looking back at his childhood. Now, the movie serves as a reminder of just how dark, dangerous, confused and complicated childhood can be. Adults make a big mistake if they romanticize their childhood and forget how difficult and uncomfortable life could be at that age.

Stand by Me just gets better each time you watch it. The beginning, especially, resonates even more, once you know Chris like Gordie does and you feel the way Gordie does about his death, as he sits there in the car watching the two boys pass on their bicycles. Another film that has an opening that also resonates much in the same way is Somewhere in Time w/ Christopher Reeve. On first watch, the appearance of the old lady is just mysterious and odd. On second viewing, it is heart wrenching (in the best possible way).

We would walk the tracks picking up iron ore pellets for our slingshots. Stop at the local tavern owned by another Uncle and get some Orange Nesbit soda and stare at the ceiling of the bar which was covered in Playboy centerfolds. Hang out at the River and watch the fishing boats unload tons of Carp to be smoked at the fish factory. We would go home for dinner then back out til 9 or 10.

This movie really impacted me as a child. I saw it on video in the summer of 1987, six months after I myself saw three dead bodies on the lawn of a Waukegan, IL car accident (on the night after Christmas, no less). I also lived a block away from railroad tracks and was just a few younger than the kids in this film. Looking back I almost think that the reason my parents allowed to me watch it (in fact showed it to me, as I recall) was to help me come to terms with what I had seen while also helping to establish the danger of playing on the railroad tracks (which my friend and I did constantly, as he lived directly across from them, though we were responsible about it). I remember that the first time I saw the movie, when it shows the corpse of Ray Brower, I was stunned to see that his eyes were open just lifelessly looking up into nothing (a very convincing performance, as it could have passed for a dummy but was actually an extra who was in the background of the pie eating scene). I was alone in the house on a very windy summer afternoon and I don't know if it's because the conditions were the same as the film, or because I was spooked by the open eyes, or because I was remembering seeing the dead bodies that I myself had seen, but as I watched the film and the wind made the trees in our yard creak I grew increasingly terrified that I'd turn to look behind me and there would be a dead body standing behind the couch waiting to get me. I'll never forget it.

21:20 The script did not call for River to cry. However, Rob wanted for River Phoenix to have more emotion. He asked him to think of a time when he was betrayed. He didn't have to say what it was, just think about it. He did, and River cried out of anger of his memory. Rob kissed and hugged him to make River feel better, and even then River would need distance from time to time. Rob still doesn't know what memory River brought up, but he can see that it brought back some scars.

Sean Astin told a story once about how he auditioned for the role of Chris, and while he was waiting for his turn to read for the part, River Phoenix was the one in there ahead of him. River came out looking emotionally drained, tears still on his face from the performance he gave, and Astin said he knew immediately that he wouldn't be getting that part. I believe he brought this up in a Goonies anniversary DVD commentary with Feldman, if I'm not mistaken.

FUN FACT: While filming the bridge scene, the actors couldn't cry on camera and had to redo the scene so many times to the point where the film crew were exhausted and director Rob Reiner got so frustrated that he started raising his voice at them, during which they started to cry and Reiner immediately got everyone into their positions and got the shot that made it into the movie. After which, the actors happily hugged Reiner for getting it right.

this film breaks my heart every-time, it's so realistic, especially the ending. i love rewatching it through people's reactions. the line 'i never had any friends later on, like the ones i had when i was twelve. jesus, does anyone?' - always gets me. i had two childhood friends and we hung out a lot at the local park and wandered through each other's part of the neighbourhood often. i still remember the last time that we saw each other, a moment strongly engrained in my memory. our local park was behind and sort of around the village hall, meetings happened there and brownie groups used the building for their activities. the park connected to the woods and we wandered in there to explore sometimes, climbing trees or creating mud potions. there was also a running track and a basketball court behind the building, they didn't get used much, but we used them a least a few times, usually cycling around the track. there was an old person's home through a small path at the back of the park and we walked there once, just to see. our school took us there to sing once, i think. anyway, back to the moment that i was talking about. we were all sitting on top of this dark green bus shelter, i always called it 'the shed' when pointing it out to anyone. it wasn't too difficult to clamber onto the roof, a part of the bus shelters' design stuck out so you could stand on it and push yourself up. you had to be careful getting down though, we helped each other sometimes so we wouldn't sprain our ankles or something. we sat up there for a while, our bikes laying messily on the grass. we talked and talked as the sun slowly went to sleep. we parted ways eventually when it started getting a bit too dark for children to be out alone, i cycled home. i miss them and i don't know what they're doing now, but i hope they're okay. we weren't super close, but i looked out for them and they stayed with me when other people were unkind. we were friends and we just drifted.
@rebeccahopkins9522
@rebeccahopkins9522 2 года назад
I love both this film and the short story this is based on (Stephen King’s “The Body” which he based the characters, setting, and situations on his and his childhood friends own coming of age); I read the story way before I ever saw this film. I love this movie, but it’s incredibly hard for me to watch. Because I cry every time at the end of it; every single time. For a lot of reasons. For one, it’s that very last sentence he writes on the computer. Because that sentence is incredibly honest, and incredibly heart piercing. It’s a true reflection of our youthful innocence. And once it’s gone, and we get more and more jaded, the friendships we make later in life are different. It’s time that does it, and it’s why our childhood friends are usually the best friends we ever have. Another reason it draws tears is when River Phoenix’s character in the movie is said to have died trying to break up two men fighting, and his image fades from the screen, I can’t help but remember his real life death, at just age 27; and how terrible it was, and still is every time I see him in a film; utterly tragic. But the biggest reason is that I had a very close childhood friend who was murdered when he was 15 and I was 14. He was the greatest person too, kind to everyone. Which is what I liked most about him. He was a genuinely good person. We bonded initially over a love of horror. He loved Stephen King, Clive Barker and horror books, as much as I did and do. And this story was one of his favorites. We would always go to the library and scour the horror section, looking for what we called “a prime cut”; which was an inside joke we thought was hysterically funny. We were such goof balls, with our macabre yet still weirdly goofy humor. But that’s why we were such good friends. We understood each other. Sometimes when no one else did. When he came out to me the year prior to his death, I would be the first and only person he ever got to tell. He swore me to secrecy, and I kept that secret, and still to this day I honor it, and have never told anyone in his ultra religious family. The summer he turned 15, a stranger broke in his house thinking it was empty, only to find him sleeping when he broke in his unlocked bedroom window. Like River’s character in the film, he was stabbed; but he was stabbed a lot, woken up with it in his own bed. He fought really hard, but in the end the guy overpowered him. My chest still hurts when I think about him. An only child, he truly was a brother to me. Even called me sis. I loved him with all my heart. I’ve lost a lot of friends and family over the years. But it was his death, at our young age, that was the hardest gut punch. It took 15 years to get his killer caught, convicted and sentenced. Though he did eventually get 25 to life. So in the end there was justice. But of course, it could never bring my friend back. When I grew up and had my son, I named him after him. So why I love this film, and story, I’ve never read the story again since his death. The film I watch rarely, just because it hurts; but I’m glad you’ve now seen it. It’s a very special, rather incredible little picture. As my friend used to say. I never again in adulthood, had a friend like him when I was young.

28:25 - "What did I just watch" tends to be how I feel with Stephen King adaptations. His stories don't seem to follow typical story formulas, yet they turn out to wonderful journeys.

It's funny hearing you say, "That's weird to see Keifer Sutherland like that", when, for us 80s kids, that's just how we knew him. Stand By Me and The Lost Boys were his defining roles as resident bad boy. And even though the movie tells you within the first 30 seconds that Chris Chambers is going to be murdered when he becomes an adult, the news at the end still hits you right in the gut every time.

Fun fact.. "Stand by Me", based on the short story "The Body", was in the same book as another short story you're familiar with, that being "Rita Hayworth and the Shaw Shank Redemption". The Book was called "Different Seasons" and each story had elements that tied them to one of the 4 seasons. Breathing Method & The Apt Pupil are the other two stories included.

Makes it even harder to deal with as we then learn how Chris, being the ever helpful ambassador of peace ends up losing his life in such an uneccesary way...it really hurts. And on a more happy note.....I actually laughed out loud during the tense train/crossing the bridge scene where after Gordie grabs Vern and they both fall off to the side just narrowly escaping the passing train you blurt out so matter-of-factly .. " Boys!" ...lol....that got me !! :p Love your channel....glad you enjoyed the movie....it certainly appeared as though it tapped into all of the emotions it set out to evoke...it is a masterpiece.
