Such a hard poster to find! We have never found the U.K. quad before!

A guaranteed original U.K. quad movie poster from 1987 for Rob Reiner's incredible teenage adventure "Stand By Me", based on Stephen King's 1982 short-story "The Body".

Starring Wil Wheaton, River Phoenix, Corey Feldman, Jerry O'Connell and Kiefer Sutherland, this sensational film tells the story of four teenage friends from a sleepy Oregon town. When a local boy goes missing, the friends decide to become heroes and set off to find the body.

The cast are all fantastic, but it is Phoenix' 'old before his years' portrayal of troubled Chris Chambers that steals the show. An amazing performance from a young actor taken too early.

Critically acclaimed as one of the best films from the 1980's and nominated for the Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar, this is one of our favourite films. We adore it.

In the U.S., Stand By Me was released on the 8th August 1986. Here in the U.K., we had to wait until 13th March 1987 to visit Reiner's Castle Rock, Oregon. This movie poster was produced for the U.K. release and so would have been seen at U.K. cinemas in early 1987. It is the only U.K. quad we have found for this movie.

It was issued folded (as was common practice at the time), but has just been linen-backed by our paper conservators and as our photos show, will look superb framed and on display!

By the way, the Stand By Me title (borrowed from the Ben E. King song that appears on the film's soundtrack) came about as the producers were worried The Body sounded like a horror (or perhaps even a porno) film!

We only sell guaranteed original movie posters. We do not sell reproductions.
