		The young Gordie (Wil Wheaton) pals around with three boys whom his father perhaps unfairly describes as ''a thief and two feebs.'' Unlike Gordie, who is clearly college-bound, his friends are aimed for shop classes and a blue-collar future.
		Chris is a born psychologist, who explains to Gordie that the problem is not that his father doesn't like him but that he doesn't know him.
		Well, the lads hear ghostly noises as they commune around their campfire; they have a narrow escape from a train (whose engineer, for no given reason, does not apply the brakes); they are afflicted by leeches, and they stand up to some very disagreeable older boys.

	Phil Villarreal's Review: Stand by Me \| Arizona Daily Star ®
		The funny and poignant tale is told in flashback, bookended with scenes of the grown-up Gordie remembering his youth as he adapts it into a short story.
		Narrative leaps, voiceover and flashbacks work in concert to reveal that Gordie is suffering from the death of his older brother and neglect from his parents; Teddy's mind isn't right because of physical abuse he's endured; and Chris, seen as a bad kid, is already beaten down by the poor expectations that surround him.
		The throughline is Gordie's emerging sense of his writing talent, dismissed by his father but encouraged by Chris, who wants to see his best friend make good.

	Stand By Me DVD review on AudioRevolution.com
		Gordie, the central character (more so than in King's novella), is still mourning the death of his older brother Denny (John Cusack no less) a few months earlier.
		Not only did Gordie just about worship Denny, who loved him back, but Denny was by far their parents' favorite.
		The adult Gordie Lachance (Richard Dreyfuss, a friend of Reiner's since they were 15) is prompted to tell this story when he learns that Chris Chambers, now a lawyer, stepped in to try to settle an argument, and was killed.

	DVD review of Stand By Me: Deluxe Edition - DVD Town (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		As Gordie, Chris, Vern, and Teddy (Corey Feldman) grab their bedrolls and start their journey, one of their first stops is a junkyard rumored to be guarded by a dog trained to go right for the testicles.
		The screenplay (which King said was the best adaptation of any of his books, to date) is superb, the acting is first-rate, the scenery and cinematography is gorgeous, the soundtrack is infectious, and the editing flawless.
		Ignore the barfarama scene which seems out of character for Gordie to narrate, throw in Kiefer Sutherland as head thug Ace and John Cusack as Gordie's dead brother (shown in dream and memory flashbacks), and it makes for one practically perfect film.
