“Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.”
Matthew Broderick stars in one of John Hughes‘ hands-down best, FERRIS BUELLER’S DAY OFF. A cinematic touchstone for 80s kids (and pretty much every kid who’s come after), the film is as fresh and funny today as it was when it came out in 1986. Also starring Mia Sara, Alan Ruck, Jennifer Grey, Edie McClurg, Ben Stein and Charlie Sheen.
“The most compelling of all John Hughes movies. It’s the one that cuts through the typical adolescent sentimentality in his popular ‘Sixteen Candles’ and ‘The Breakfast Club’ to reveal a truth about American cultural values.” (National Review)
“One has to marvel at just how perfectly Hughes nails his frustratingly entitled mise-en-scène, which he unquestionably does in the film’s mesmerizing detour inside an art museum.” (Slant Magazine)
