I think the film version was called 'Stand By Me'. This caused me loads of problems because I saw the film first and then went looking for the book (a friend who's quite mad about Stephen King helped me out in the end).<hr></blockquote>
Even stranger, I saw the movie when I was *very* young and never even heard of Stephen King in my entire life, let alone read any of his novels. I really liked the movie though, and I was quite surprised when I suddenly stumbled upon "The Body" in the 4 Seasons Short Story novel some years later; I never suspected it *was* a Stephen King novel until I read it. But it was a pleasant surprise, though.
