Answer: Oregon
Most of Stephen King's numerous fictional references to the town of Castle Rock place it in Maine, but the narrator (Richard Dreyfuss) clearly states at the beginning of 'Stand By Me' -- based on the King novella 'The Body' -- that *this* Castle Rock is located in Oregon. A glitch in the adaptation process, perhaps?

From Quiz: 'Stand By Me' Quotes
Answer: Stephen King
Stephen King wrote the novella 'The Body', which was the basis for the film Stand By Me. King is a prolific author known for his horror and supernatural fiction, but 'The Body' is a departure from his usual genre. The story follows four young boys on a journey to find the body of a missing boy, and explores themes of friendship, coming-of-age, and mortality. Stand By Me, directed by Rob Reiner, was a critical and commercial success upon its release in 1986, and has since become a beloved classic.

From Quiz: 'Stand By Me' Quotes
Answer: Richard Dreyfuss
Richard Dreyfuss narrates the movie Stand By Me. He provides the voiceover as the adult version of the main character, Gordie, reflecting on his childhood memories. Interestingly, Dreyfuss was not originally intended to be the narrator. Director Rob Reiner had initially recorded himself reading the script, but later decided that his voice was not suitable for the role. Dreyfuss was then brought in to provide the narration, which added an extra layer of emotion and nostalgia to the film.
