Review of Stand by Me

"Stand by my side" support four boys around 13 to start one of the greatest adventures of their lives. They decide to flee their homes to find the corpse of a boy who overheard it lying dead next to the train lines. The journey is trying to heal the personal wounds and have to face a gang of older boys who are claim and in turn the glory of the discovery of the dead boy.
One of the few Stephen King books that contains so many socio-psychological personality references to four boys spent the early adolescent period.

In Stand by me, seamlessly combines the atmosphere of mystery and adventure (as close to the children in finding the corpse, so the suspense climaxes), but to become a thriller nor a case for once! On the other hand, gentle children's party ceases to be so gentle as the plot develops as small "truant" has to grapple with highly traumatized. They must become men and the only place to do this is through their joint venture and their friendship.

A story of courage and friendship, then this is the Stand by me. One story has a moral lesson in the end, manages to keep the public's interest and although the peak is not particularly dramatic, nobody can be resented by the developments. Four children are men, four children wounded, they find the courage and strength to resist and fight with something stronger than them.
