Summer as it used to be. In summer movies, it’s summer, sure. But it is not only the weather or the season that makes a summer movie. After all, climate change is not the only reason why we often associate summer with nostalgic feelings.
Summer feeling also means a break from everyday life and time for adventure. Particularly at a young age, the summer vacations are a time of transition and change. But also after school, summer is a time of departure, if only for vacation. Trips often bring special experiences and sometimes adventures.
That’s why summer movies are also about a time of departure and adventure. Still, the weather has to be right, of course. Stay tuned for the 15 best summer movies of all time!
In this adventure story based on a tale by Stephen King, four teenagers, Gordie (Wil Wheaton), Chris (River Phoenix), Teddy (Corey Feldman) & Vern (Jerry O’Connell), set out on a summer hike. A day or so’s walk from their small hometown is supposed to be the body of a boy who was hit and killed by a train.
Their friends want to be hailed as heroes when they recover the missing boy’s body. The adventures on the way there will probably not be forgotten by the four twelve-year-olds for the rest of their lives. And for the viewer, the film will also awaken many a youthful memory of more or less adventurous experiences during the summer vacations.
