Released in the summer of 1986 and set in the summer of 1959, the film is a crowd-pleasing adventure drama about four friends who venture into the woods of Oregon on a mission to spy a dead body. Over the course of their journey, they encounter oddballs, dangers, and truths that forever change them.
According to Prime Video, “After director Rob Reiner screened the movie for Stephen King, he noticed that King was visibly shaking and wasn’t speaking. He left the room and upon his return, told Reiner that the movie was the best adaptation of his work he had ever seen.”
“Oddly, the song would not have been known to anyone in the 1959 setting of the story, since the initial recording of it by King was not released until 1961,”Turner Classic Movieswrote. “There have been hundreds of versions recorded over the years. Because of the film, King's version garnered new popularity, rising to #9 on the charts in 1986 and subsequently used in a jeans commercial. In that same year, BMI recognized it as the most-performed song from a movie in 1986; the organization also named it as the fourth most-performed song of the 20th century.”
Stand by Me is available to rent or buy on Prime Video.
