The Ghost of Ray Brower by Mick Minogue / Facebook / Blog
Mixed media, ‘Stand By Me’ inspired diorama. Part of the Glow in the Dark art show, “When the Lights Go Out” at the Bottleneck Gallery / Facebook.
In a 2011 interview with NPR, Wil Wheaton attributed the film’s success to the director’s casting choices: “Rob Reiner found four young boys who basically were the characters we played. I was awkward and nerdy and shy and uncomfortable in my own skin and really, really sensitive, and River was cool and really smart and passionate and even at that age kind of like a father figure to some of us, Jerry was one of the funniest people I had ever seen in my life, either before or since, and Corey was unbelievably angry and in an incredible amount of pain and had an absolutely terrible relationship with his parents.”
