"Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption" is one of my favourite Stephen King short stories (From "Different Seasons"). I actually read it after watching the film (which is just amazing) and still ended up liking the short story more than the film. I would highly recommend it to just about anyone.

"Stand by Me" was based on "The Body" from that same book. Great collection.

"Apt Pupil" was also adapted as a movie tho not as good as the other two, imvho.
