I Rewatched Stand By Me As An Adult, And Realized Just How Much I Relate To Gordie

Gordie in Stand By Me.

There are a few movies that I have watched as an adult that have an even bigger impact on me years later, whether it be Lilo and Stitch and my love for Nani or an anime film like Spirited Away. But there's one movie I saw as a young child and hadn't had the chance to re-watch for some time – and that was Stand By Me. 

The Stephen King adaptation, based on the novella “The Body”, follows a group of boys whose morbid curiosity to discover the dead body of a missing kid brings them on an adventure. So, now that I'm older and (hopefully) wiser, I decided to check out the film that I fell in love with as a kid, the one that made me love Stephen King all the same.
