Headline: Stephen King was 'emotionally wrecked' watching Stand by Me for first time
Caption:
Famed writer Stephen King has recalled uncharacteristically hugging late director Rob Reiner after seeing his 1986 movie Stand by Me. In an essay for The New York Times on Tuesday, the Carrie and It author recalled Reiner showing him a rough cut of the coming-of-age film, based on his 1982 novella The Body, which "remains the only nakedly autobiographical story I've ever done". King shared that he was "emotionally wrecked" by the film when he saw it in a Beverly Hills hotel room in 1985.
