The Parade Scene: Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 жов 2017
- Ferris Bueller's Day Off is a 1986 American teen comedy film written, co-produced and directed by John Hughes, and co-produced by Tom Jacobson. The film stars Matthew Broderick as Ferris Bueller, a high-school slacker who spends a day off from school, with Mia Sara and Alan Ruck. Ferris regularly "breaks the fourth wall" to explain techniques and inner thoughts.
Hughes wrote the screenplay in less than a week. Filming began in September 1985 and finished in November 1985. Featuring many landmarks, including the Sears Tower and the Art Institute of Chicago, the film was Hughes' love letter to Chicago: "I really wanted to capture as much of Chicago as I could. Not just in the architecture and landscape, but the spirit."
Released by Paramount Pictures on June 11, 1986, the film became one of the top-grossing films of the year, receiving $70.1 million over a $5.8 million budget, and was enthusiastically acclaimed by critics and audiences alike. In 2014, the film was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress, being deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." - Фільми й анімація
Fun fact the workers dancing on the scaffolding are real workers who were working when filming this scene🤣
And they just saw them and thought let's record that guy
The whole parade was real too. They asked the City of Chicago for permission to film
Fun fact about your mom. She can take me balls deep.
Lolll
that makes me so happy lol
Ferris bueller is the coolest movie character ever
thanks man
@@fs6414 hahahaha
Jeff lubowski? Maybe
@@shivugamer2383 He is just a lazy ass... For me the coolest might be John McClane
Hell most lazy ass people get the most done cause they can talk a way in or out of a situation that makes others do the work.
When I was a kid I always thought this was actually Ferris singing the whole time.
He is the Walrus
LOL
same
WHAT?!?!?!?!?!???.... Are u saying it's actually not him??
It’s John Lennon and the Beatles.
35 years later and this scene is still absolute gold. Timeless film
Old but Gold
Yessir
It cheers me up
This scene will never die
Agreed

Totally Epic!
Ferris Bueller is the GOAT
@@MartyMcFly88 No Marty McFly is😉😄🤣
@@Mrd9960 That’s true. I am.
The 80s...plenty of great teen movies and this one was the most fun and memorable...
80s best era for movies and music no question. and i’m gen z lol
I don’t know, breakfast club was/is more memorable, but I will never forget Sloan 😏. Although, Alison Sheedy in war games ain’t too bad either
@@johnnysalami27 what about Stand By Me?
@UngusBungus Oh yeah, and Stand By Me too.
You can thank John Hughes for that.
Today this whole thing would be filmed on video and put on social media. Ferris would get busted
Good Point 😅
Worth it
@BAT EATER yeah but if smartphones existed in 1986, you know damn well everyone would be using them
@BAT EATER also those who made the smartphone were made by people of ferris bueller's generation. maybe they were sick of having to "live in the moment" to remember stuff lmaooo
I think that’s a staple of the 80s - practical special effects and tales of just getting ‘lost’ in the world. Now that there’s a phone in every pocket you can’t really be ‘lost’ anymore
I like Cameron and Sloan’s friendship. That little scene they have together about the future is a great little back and forth.
The best part written is when she says what are you interested in and Cameron says “nothing” and she agrees. EXACTLY, this film just captures enjoying youth while you can, it really has such a rich spirit
@@hippiecheezburger5457 as a senior about to go to college. I can relate to the fullest now. This has been my favorite movie of all-time since I was 6 because you can rewatch it and never get bored.
@@Ryan15beast
After 12 years of standard schooling, everyone should take a gap year to enjoy themselves, learn a little about the world and REALLY figure out who they are and what they want now that they've been freed into the world. Its hard to know what you really want with and from the world, unless you've been a real part of it.
Good luck Ryan
@@insertnamehere8121 thankfully I’m in the minority that really knows what I want to do. I want to start my own gaming development company with a few other friends. The goal is to make video games that can educate people on stuff like History, Science, and other subjects while maintaining the entertainment value gaming has to offer. This is why I’m majoring in Computer Science
Rewatching this movie as a senior hits different
My mom worked as a secretary downtown when the parade was being filmed. She could see it out of the window of her desk and got to see the whole thing. I thought that was pretty awesome 💙
That's cool
Your mother is a Lucky one💯💯
Oh man.. so lucky!!!!!
Awesome
Its not luck its life ❤️💙
This movie really had a 6 minute musical number for no reason and we still all love it
It demonstrated how confident & fearless Ferris was & he genuinely was trying to show his friend a good time.
Ferris is too pure for this world
cheers mate
He's a phsyco lmao
Save Ferris
Dude he’s faaaar from pure 😂 such a bad influence, however, he genuinely wants to give his best friend a good way to relax and have fun which makes him lovable.
No he isn't. Matthew Broderick is a piece of shit who killed a mother and daughter in a car crash and still never apologized to the family for it.
80’s movies were the best. Looked like they actually had fun making movies back then.
They did...
Life as an 80s kid was awesome. I was there. So simple, so happy.
@@seanbodkin8549 I was born in 88
They just don’t make movies like they used to 😢
@@arielperez3613 I know right lately it’s been dark or gritty movies.
Ferris defines you can do anything what you want by just enjoying the moment at its finest, anyway life’s too short.
Life's not short, it just moves fast

Just recently rewatched this movie for the first time in years. It's a PERFECT movie. Like every scene is incredible. John Hughes was an INSANE talent.
It really was damn near perfect wasn’t it?
John Hughes is one of the most brilliant filmmakers to ever exist.
I used to think this, but his movies glorified wealthy people, and rarely had any minorities or people in the lower social economic strata. These movies worked because they weave a fantasy about how it is to live when you have money for an audience of people who are blue-collar and such. I’m not saying the movies are bad, but if some of these things had been addressed in the script, then they would be immensely better.
This scene perfectly encapsulates why older movies are better than what's being made today. Studios would never take a chance on having this many actual human beings in a single scene. If they can't CGI it, it's not happening. Not to mention the emotion conveyed in the scene. Today, you're either supposed to laugh at weak, elementary humor, or feel crippling sadness. Happiness isn't something studios today want you to feel.
You gad them right
Back then ,yesterdays world ruled, now todays world sucks balls bigtime!!!
Matthew Broderick was having the best time of his life that day
3:48 that kid... always kills me! 😂
Yeah😂😂I feel yah
And he's like a 35 yr old or something now 😅
@@saileshs705 lmao no he is like 58 years old
@@Annemariie18
LMAO.... no. He would be closer to 35. Probably about 40. Do the math.
@@saileshs705 He was 19 in the movie.
I cannot imagine a world without the Beatles, Rolling Stones, David Bowie...
I'm only 11 and I only listen to them and Led Zeppelin more than my 52 y/o dad, I hate what people have done to music.
@@Alexhaddadisafinespecimenofsex keep yourself in this way, kid
Music peaked in the 80s. Beatles were legendary pioneers in the music industry. We have good songs here and there but my god, Elvis was a jumpstart and then The Beatles were heroes to the rise of the era. I wasn't from the decades but my ears have the experience...
@@tiago2189 you act like all modern music is garbage
@@ordinarygamer2655 can you blame them? Top 40 radio is probably the worst it has been in the past 50 years. People aren't bothered looking for a underground label with good bands anymore
My dad used to call me Ferris Beuller growing up because no matter what I did, things always seemed to work out for me. Such nostalgia.
That's a cool memory! Those are the kinds of memories to treasure and to cherish!
That’s only because he played with your bum hole 😂
Bueller*
You're so cool
This scene introduced The Beatles to a whole generation of 80's kids. Long live Ferris and The Beatles!
Masterpiece of a movie. You watched to the end?
I've always liked when the dancers come into view @2:50, I know they're moving their feet, but the camera angle makes them look like they are sliding in
Yeah I thought that too 😂
Best!
They were moving their feet carefully to make it smooth, like they were sliding in.
Mine too…. That effect is great!
Yep, lol, I love that too, I think the director intended for them to look like they were sliding
This film was the opposite of our lives in Europe where the 80s were synonymous with "no future". It was so optimistic that it gave us the strength to do everything and filled our hearts with love, joy and hope !
Wow, what a generalizing statement. Buddy, I enjoyed the 80s very much, being 20 and single... ;)
The production only had one take in downtown Chicago for the scene. The city of Chicago only allowed bthem enough time, which was one day, to completely set up and completely dismantle. There were more cameras set up for one scene of a movie that had ever been done before so to be able to get every angle and every impromptu move by the crowd. It’s unimaginable to think that something that large scale could be pulled off with one take and come out so absolutely perfect. It’s one of the greatest scenes in comedy in the modern era. Hail to Ferris Bueller.
during the parade, people seen dancing including the construction worker and the window washer had nothing to do with the film. They were simply dancing to the music being played, and John Hughes found it so humorous that he told the camera operators to record it.
John Hughes you will be remembered
RIP John Hughes the greatest teen movie maker of all time.
Yeeees
Ah Chicago, the city where singing and dancing can break out at anytime thanks to this movie and The Blues Brothers.
This movie gives me life
This scene must have been so much fun to film
Makes me wish I could go back in time and be an extra in this scene
The moment when Ferris Buehller got up and sang Twist and Shout on the float is the ultimate iconic moment that represents the 80s generation when we were young.
Bueller *
It was this movie & Back 2 School that brought back "Twist & Shout" on the charts in 1986. This scene & Rodney Dangerfield singing it in Back To School.
One the most memorable and powerful scenes in film history. Its been 35 yrs and still I remember how great the scene was the first time I watched it in a big screen. Amazing!!!
I honestly cannot think of a better feel-good scene of any movie ever. It’s just packed to the absolute brim with happiness and joy and celebration. I always come back to it whenever I need a lil pick-me-up ❤️
Haha same 😂😂😂
I love this scene so much!
It's just so fun and full of charm, and it shows what Ferris Bueller is all about. Yeah, he gets his way throughout the movie, but his intentions aren't malicious, he's just a kid who wants to have fun with the time he has with his friends.
That's the most likeable depiction of a teenager I've seen on film, cuz I could only imagine kids seeing this movie and wanting to be like Ferris. Riding a cherry red ferrari, getting into a fancy restaurant, dancing ON the parade float! I know I'd wanna do all that.
Plus, look at the way everyone in the crowd is dancing with him! He's not only giving his friends a memorable time, he gave the whole city a time to remember and I love that!
God, I'm so glad I watched this movie last night, what a great time :)))
Back then we had the best movies, unlike today.
That must have been the coolest scene to ever film
The America I imagined.
The American we will never see again sadly 😂
And you will never see it again.
Same
America that was once cool.
Personally, I enjoyed the talk between Mia and Alan. They're both just going with the flow and doing what their parents tell them. But they don't actually know what they want to do with their life. It's very relatable. Once they started talking about it, they found themselves respecting Ferris's way of life, who lives in the moment.
While kids are at school, the three of them are having a memorable day. We should all have a day like Ferris.
I’m a Cameron but I wanna be a Ferris
OMG me too!! Story of my life!
Better to be a Cameron than a Jeanie.
please that’s me
Well... That's the definition of being a Cameron 🤣
I honestly feel like both characters if that makes any sense.
love this!!!
LONG LIVE THE BEATLES!!!
I mean two of them are dead

When COVID 19 is better and we can crowd like this in the streets i am living my life as spontaneous as this scene
Covid was never a big deal except for the elderly
Are you doing it?
It's impossible not to feel good when you watch this scene. It perfectly captures the 80's and is THE movie scene of the 80s in my opinion.
3:36: You know this scene is iconic when even a baby gets in on the action
This scene is just pure happiness!! If you don’t like this scene then you need a Reality Check just like Cameron Fry did. This scene is golden.
My grade 11 english teacher once told me I reminded her of Ferris Bueller. At the time I haven’t seen the movie. Wasn’t until a few years I realized it was probably the best compliment I’ve ever received. Danke schoen Mrs.Fiorillo 🙌
John Hughes was a genius with every movie he did. All based in Chicago too. And Shermer was referenced a lot. But this is the best part of Ferris's day off.
I agree his movies are incredible
John Hughes was absolutely brilliant. Just brilliant.
I always watch this movie when down, it cheers me up
I re-watch this when I think I haven't seen anything good all day. Thanks for cheering me up, Ferris.
Absolute classic
Watched at the cinema on release and now watch it every couple of months and still think it’s one of the best,this scene nails it
It truly is one of the best movies
long live Ferris!
80s would t be 80s without this movie and Matthew Broderick!
This scene still rocks as it did the first time I saw it back then!
My family bought an accordion and sound system from the lady on the float playing the accordion (Vlasta the Polka Queen) a couple of years after the movie came out. She came over to our house to help is set it up.
Every time I watch this video, I find myself laughing and enjoying this wonderful, fantastic scene, there's no way not to be happy.
The best 80s movie OF ALL TIME! you can not and will not get another classic like this in today’s times, ❤️❤️💯🤟🏼🤘🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Not “the best” but one of them. There’s too many to choose from.
What a friggin classic.
Such a classic movie that resonates with every kid who has skipped school for that big adventure with a couple of friends. This is the first example of flash mob dancing I can remember. Great scene thanks for showing it.
In 2024, I walk past this area on my way to the office. I saw this movie as a Chicago suburban teen in 1986.
One of the most feel-good scenes in cinematic history.
I STILL CAN WATCH THIS OVER AND OVER AND FEEL LIKE A TEENAGER AGAIN EVEN DO I AM GOING TO THE SENIOR CENTER AND EVERYONE CALL ME CRAZY BECAUSE I LIKE THIS SONG AND MOVIE AND MAY GOD HELP AND HEAL EVERYONE AMEN SHALOM ALELUYA
My dad showed me this film when I turned 16. Gonna show my son once he's older.
I know one of the tubas players. He was a youth group teacher at my middle school.
Amy Cater sounds cool! Good to know someone in this amazing movie
Islam is the truth
Man the 80s were so kickin ❤️💯🤟🏼🤘🏼 Lol I was born in 93 so I never got to experience the 80s
I was born in 2009, so I didn’t get to experience the 80s, 90s, or 2000s. It looked so much fun though
@@awesomespoon11 the 90s was a trip lol THATS why they call it the last greatest decade ❤️💯
I was born in 1976. Literally was 3 when the '80s started. The only thing I can remember of the first 13 years of my life is the '80s.
This is movie, the 80s weren’t like this in real life
I was born in 88, so at the tail end of the '80s. At least I got to enjoy the '90s.
There's just something about this movie that makes it better than any other film I've ever seen, I don't know what it is, but no other movie makes me this happy, no matter how many times I watch it, it will always be my favourite
Agreed. I’d say this and Adventures in Babysitting are brilliant
They don’t make good movies like this anymore. RIP John Hughes.
Imagine being in that crowd…. wow that must’ve been such a fun experience
Awesome, funny 80's movie with a great message. Life moves pretty fast. If you dont stop to look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Always loved this movie. Weird Science was another classic 80's comedy movie too.
The movie reached to the highest point of Joy during this parade song ! The joy we left in 80's or in our college times! And now we are just living to recreate those moments through this song ! 😊😊😊
Ohh wow! Now after knowing this, one can easily see the crowd is dancing on thriller steps 😊
I remember watching this when I was only 8 years old and I loved it. I’m 18 now and to this day it’s still my favorite movie of all time.
This is too funny😂
People tend to forget this movie released almost 6 years after John Lennon's death, it was not random they picked a track with john on vocals.
before i saw the performed version i always assumed paul sang it.
Wait john lennon sang the song?
I love the polka lady. Seen her on the johnny Carson what a great treasure. And her gift made people happy. One of the best improve I've seen since animal house❤️🦋
This is one of the best films ever made
Absolutely gorgeous..I’ve seen this movie about 15 times and when it’s on tv I will see it again!🤩🤩🤩
this is actually the best scene in cinematic history and you can't argue with me
I just realized after all these years of watching this that the dancers on the steps are doing the dance choreography from the thriller music video 🤯
I find it sweet that Cameron and Sloane are holding hands at 0:04 and 1:26 and Ferris doesn’t care.
Yeh cause there only friends
@@ryanclark7962 many many many fanfictions beg to differ, or so I've heard.
They’re just friends, Ferris knows that. That’s his girlfriend and his best friend, there’s no reason for Ferris to be mad or anything. Plus, Sloan doesn’t seem to care that Ferris is dancing and flirting with the girls on the float. They love each other and trust each other.
The best scene of the whole movie! 😂
One of the best… actually, the whole movie is the best scene lol
This movie is literally the best movie with Mathew Broderick ever!!
I can’t imagine how much fun this movie was to make
It was this movie & Back To School that brought back "Twist & Shout, this scene & Rodney Dangerfield singing it in Back 2 School as it returned the charts in "86.
My favorite movie!
Still watch whenever it's on.
the ALL TIME... all time scene; pure classic!!!
Man..greatest movie ever..even had Ferris' and Cameron's lines memorized back in my youth when the film came out..John Hughes is a real genius..Pretty in Pink, Some Kind of Wonderful, Sixteen Candles, Breakfast Club..
Don’t forget Home Alone!! That guy was pure genius.
Just seen this movie again last night and it has risen that spark for life again. I always loved these types of movies about life and doing your best to enjoy it if u can. This will always be one of my personal favorites no matter how old it gets.
I guess Simba’s really into The Beatles 😂😂😂😂
😂😂
I remember when im always watching this movie every morning over and over again😂😂😂It always make my day..
Sabe lá o que é fazer essa Cena ICÔNICA de dança com centenas de pessoas.? Imagino o trabalho que deu!.O resultado Foi ESPETACULAR!
This quite possibly is the best movie clip ever.
This scene is where I bought into the theory of Ferris being a product of Cameron’s imagination and al the events of the movie were in his head. Ferris represents who he wants to be so he created this person in his head that has all the traits that he wish he could have
So... Basically Fight Club without punching?
But how does this work for characters like the Principal...
@@ThatDragonGuyhe could be like the embodiment of Cameron’s fears of what would happen if he stepped out of line ig
Can imagine how fun it was to be in the thick of this scene filming!
I've just been in Chicago once again and this movie always comes to my mind, whether it's Walking on Dearborn Av, or visiting the Art Institute of Chicago, or the Willis Tower Observatory, it's always there. Ferris Bueller, he is a fantastic character, cheerful, witty, fresh and very intelligent, I love this movie.
Iconic scene. Classic in every way.
Y am I watching this at 3am
I watch this every day lol
Because you love yourself, as everyone should. This is one of the best movie scenes EVER
The better question is, why aren't people watching this at 3 am?
3:20 I love how the camera rolled slowly and fooling people that it's a quadruplets on a suit.
You cannot help having a smile on your face by the end.
I was not born during this era but I was born in 99 and when I was a kid watching this Movie I danced along this scene like I was having the time of my life now Im 23 I really did wished I grew up in the 80's fuck this time aint shit nothing but bitches shaking asses on someone.. I rather have this type of vibe there was no booty shaking or any type of dance someone will judge you on just having the time of your life and thats what the 80's was about
❤️❤️
I just watched Inside Story about this movie. They said they almost didn't get the license to use this song. If you learn anything from this movie is this; live life in the moment and never take anything for granted because life is too short.
Por lo que sé, los derechos de los Beatles son muy caros como para que se use una canción en una película. Cuando usaron Tomorrow Never Knows en Mad Men les costó el 40% del presupuesto. Me imagino que en esa epoca Michael Jackson tenía los derechos y por eso no demandaron a John Hughes.
I heard Paul Mcartney hates this version
Cameron says it best.
Ferris can handle anything, Cameron feels like he can’t handle anything.
We all can identify with Cameron and how he feels. We all wish to be more like Ferris
I'm a Beatlemaniac thanks to Ferris! Thanks, Ferris, you're a really nice guy.
Hughes was also a Beatlemaniac
I'm listening to Paul Hirsch's autobiography, "A long time ago in a cutting room far, far away...." (via audiobook), right now and he's at the part discussing the parade scene.
Paul edited "Ferris Bueller's Day Off", "Footloose", episodes IV and V of the Star Wars movies and many other films over the years. It's cool listening to him talk about how he put scenes together. This particular scene had a lot of jump cuts which worked out really well when put together. He said there were 3 takes of the "Twist & Shout" song used to get the right amount of coverage needed. He said the release of the balloons happened after the 3rd take and the energy seen in the movie was completely authentic even after the same song being played 3 times.
I recommend others who love these movies to either find the audiobook or the book itself. Hirsch doesn't narrate the audiobook himself, but the narrator (Richard Ferrone) makes you forget its not Paul.
I remember when this movie came out...
