Dave Franco recommended Stand by Me (1986) in Movies (curated)

"It’s probably my all-time favorite. Partially for nostalgic reasons, but mainly because I love movies about kids, when the kid actors know what they’re doing. I like the innocence of it, and the simplicity. I guess in a cheesy way, it takes me back to my childhood and messing around with friends too. It has a perfect balance of humor, heart, and intense moments as well."

Funny and sad

Super. This novel is written with a first person childhood narration. Whilst this is problematic with regards to the authenticity of McCourts memory, you can not criticise him for his portrayal of childhood innocence. The novel is fantastic, great visual images, told from a convincing narrator, covering topics such as religion, poverty, alcoholism, hunger, death and growing up. I just loved it.
