Stand by Me

"I just wish... that I could go some place... where nobody knows me." it's been a year exactly today when i watched this for the time, my first time i didn't really understand anything about this personally nor did i actually think about what the characters were going through or their feelings. i just thought about the dead body, exactly like the characters. the main 4 characters are great, but it's mostly chris and lechance that get a chance too be fleshed out, this movie is basically only an hour and 25 mins and the fact u feel so much fucking emotions throughout is just wild, considering what happened too chris and obviously now knowing what happened too river phoenix (R.I.P too a legend) watching this again just made me very somber and sad throughout, even jealous at times. i wish i had a friend like chris, or i wish i was a friend like chris cause chris is probably the bestest friend u could ever ask for, i once had a friend like him, now he's let others influence the way he acts and he's js a dick. it's only been a year aswell. i see a lot of myself in lechance as in the way he acts and the stuff he talks about in general, it's hard not too relate too him especially considering the way i let my friends influence me about a year ago, now i js do my own thing and im kinda happy with myself and im glad i did what i did. the cinematography in this movie, fucking amazing. one of the nicest and stunning looking, coming of age movies ever. this movie is probably the richest a coming of age movie can be, everything about this is perfect, the way the characters talk, the camera work. the soundtrack is excellent, like the soundtrack is genuinely so underrated besides the obvious "stand by me" song played at the end which is genuienly such a good song and even though the lyrics has nothin too do with the movie it still represents this movie is such a heartfelt way it's hard not too love it. this movie means a lot too me on a rewatch and i can't wait too watch this more. what a movie. great movie
