## 🎬 Stand By Me – 40th Anniversary Screening **Monday, March 30** 📍 Cineplex Yonge/Dundas (Toronto) 🕡 Meet at 6:45PM \| 🎥 Showtime 7:00PM Join us for a special 40th anniversary screening of **Stand by Me** on the big screen at Cineplex Yonge/Dundas! Look for **Nick and the Meetup sign outside the auditorium before and after the movie.** As always, you’re welcome to just show up — no stress if your schedule is up in the air. 🎟 Event page & tickets: [https://www.cineplex.com/movie/stand-by-me-40th-anniversary](https://www.cineplex.com/movie/stand-by-me-40th-anniversary) ▶️ Watch the trailer on YouTube: [trailer here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UUcTNZKrks) *** ### About the Movie Directed by Rob Reiner and based on a novella by Stephen King, *Stand By Me* is a coming-of-age classic that follows four friends — Gordie, Chris, Teddy, and Vern — on a summer adventure to find a missing boy. Set in the 1950s, it’s funny, heartfelt, and deeply nostalgic — a story about friendship, growing up, and the moment you realize childhood doesn’t last forever. ⏱ Runtime: **89 minutes** *** ### Why the 40th Anniversary Is So Special Forty years later, *Stand By Me* still resonates because it captures something universal: the intensity of childhood friendships and the bittersweet transition into adulthood. Seeing it on the big screen again gives the story the space it deserves — the Oregon landscapes, the unforgettable performances from a young cast, and the emotional depth that sneaks up on you when you least expect it. Anniversary screenings aren’t just about nostalgia — they’re about sharing a timeless story with a room full of people who laugh, tear up, and remember their own childhood adventures at the same time. There’s something powerful about experiencing that together. If you’ve loved this movie for decades, or if you’ve somehow never seen it, this is the perfect way to experience it. Come walk the tracks with us. 🚂 \#\#\# ✅ **Before You Sign Up** * Please **buy your ticket first** — seating is limited! * When signing up, let us know your **seat number** so we can try to group everyone together. * You can still sign up or just **show up on the day** if you’re not sure you can make it — we’re flexible! 📲 **Join Our WhatsApp Group:** [Click here to join](http:/#) 🎟️ **Join Cineplex’s CineClub for discounts**: [https://www.cineplex.com/cineclub](https://www.cineplex.com/cineclub) 🎁 **Get your SCENE Card** for free movies and points: [https://www.scene.ca](https://www.scene.ca/) \*\*\* \#\#\# 🎥 **A Quick Word About Movie Etiquette** We love a great film experience.

We're going to watch the Beaches Easter Parade ! We will take a nice stroll along Queen street and will stop in a chocolate store filled with Easter goodies before the parade starts at 2pm. We'll be joined by my other meetup group, Walk and Roll. Then we will walk along Queen street to see the parade filled with bands, dancers, floats and easter bunnies. Afterwards you can go to the beach. Queen street will be closed between Woodbine east to Neville Park from approximately 2 - 4pm. For those who are driving it is best to park near Woodbine and Queen. For those taking the TTC, go to Woodbine station and take the 92 Woodbine bus south and get off at Queen street. The firestation is very close to the bus stop. Or take the Queen car to Kingston road then walk a few blocks to the firestation. The firestation is at the corner of Queen east and Woodbine. It's the tall building with the bell tower. Felice is wearing a red hat. Please know that when you post a message below it goes to all members who have signed up. If you need to cancel please change your RSVP you don't need to leave a comment for me.

Fresh on 386 Bloor st W near Spadina has also been around for a long time. They have to be good for them to around so long including all the other Freah franchises. So it it time to pay them a visit. See their menu here: https://www.freshkitchens.ca/en/menu.html \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- After for those interested, there is a Salsa Community Dance nearby -only about a 5 min by walk. They do it every Saturday fro 3 - 5 pm and have been doing if for more than 20 years now. That is where I learned most of all my Salsa and other latin dances. I also use to help the instructors teach new people to salsa. So if you are new or experienced, you are in good hands. Why not come out and give it a try. They do charge $10 for admittance. But you learn and get some nice practice. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Lastly, please be respectful of your attendance, No shows are a big problem for restaurants who reserve seats at the expense of paying customers, Be sure to update and confirm your attendance.
