Released in 1986 and set during Labor Day weekend in 1959, Stand by Me follows four 12-year-old friends living in the fictional town of Castle Rock, Oregon.

After Vern Tessio overhears that the body of a missing boy has been discovered near the railroad tracks, he tells his friends Gordie Lachance, Chris Chambers, and Teddy Duchamp. Hoping to become local heroes, the boys invent an excuse for their parents and begin a two-day journey to find the body.

What begins as an adventure quickly becomes something much more personal. Each boy carries his own fears and problems: Gordie feels invisible to his grieving parents, Chris worries that his family’s reputation has already determined his future, Teddy idolizes an abusive father, and Vern desperately wants to belong.

The movie is based on Stephen King’s novella The Body, originally published in his 1982 collection Different Seasons. Unlike the supernatural horror normally associated with King, this is a deeply human story about grief, friendship, fear, and the painful realization that childhood cannot last forever.

Released on May 2, 1997, Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery is a spy comedy written by Mike Myers and directed by Jay Roach.

The movie stars Myers in two roles: Austin Powers, an outrageously confident British secret agent from the swinging sixties, and Dr. Evil, the bald, emotionally unavailable criminal mastermind determined to take over the world.

The story begins in 1967, when Dr. Evil escapes Austin by launching himself into space and entering cryogenic suspension. With no reason to remain active, Austin volunteers to be frozen until his enemy eventually returns.

Thirty years later, Dr. Evil comes back to Earth and threatens the world with a stolen nuclear weapon. Unfortunately, he has been gone so long that he doesn’t understand inflation—or how much money a proper international villain should demand.

Austin is thawed out to stop him, but he quickly discovers that the free-loving culture of the sixties has been replaced by the very different world of the 1990s.

Helping him adjust is Vanessa Kensington, played by Elizabeth Hurley. Vanessa is the daughter of Austin’s former partner, Mrs. Kensington, and she isn’t immediately impressed by Austin’s behavior, appearance or endless supply of ridiculous pickup lines.

While Austin tries to adapt, Dr. Evil faces a different kind of culture shock. His criminal organization has become a successful legitimate business, his henchmen occasionally question his logic and he learns that he has a teenage son named Scott.

The result is part James Bond parody, part fish-out-of-water comedy and part dysfunctional family therapy session inside a secret underground lair.
