Stand by Me
it makes me feel like i’ve never experienced life in its entirety, or had a childhood i should have truly cherished.
there’s a lots of good quotes.
“i wish the hell i was your dad. you wouldn’t be going around talking about some stupid shop courses if i was. it’s like God gave you something, man, all those stories that you can make up. He said “ This is what We got for you, kid. Try not to lose it”. kids lose everything unless there’s someone to look out for them. if your parents are too fucked up to do it, then maybe i should.”
gordie was the reason chris lived to see old age.
and one scene where they were playing at the pond,
“act like your age”
“this is my age. i’m in the prime of my youth, and i’ll only be young once”
“yeah but you’re gonna be stupid for the rest of your life”
which actually shows how tyler grown up to be a very playful man and end up having a sketchy life.
this is such a great film. a lot good stuff came out of it if you’re being observant.
