Original Movie - Ferris Beuller's Day Off - Розваги
yes I think I might be too old to even be in school at this point but it still makes me want to skip it 🥲
Just a bit of disturbing news, but the principle in real life is a convicted pedophile. Pretty well known facts
Biloxi Blues is another movie starring a young Matthew Broderick, which is very good and completely overlooked. Don't think I've seen anyone react to it.
@@TheJrr71 DAMN, I need to go back and rewatch it also...soo good, I hope VKunia does a reaction to it...
@@joealvarez8733 I just had a bit of a search... still can't see any reaction videos to it, so V would be the first, possibly. It's one of my favourite movies, but hardly anyone has ever seen it.
💙💙💙
I love the scene where Cameron has an existential crisis in the art museum. He identifies so hard with that child, who is, like Cameron, on a grand day out (a picnic standing in for Chicago), surrounded by happiness and excitement, and yet, on closer examination, is faceless and blurry. I can understand why Vicky reacted that way, because it's really very suddenly intense in such a light-hearted movie, and it's all set against the Smiths' haunting orchestral version of "Please, Please, Please let me get what I want." Hughes himself said that Cameron's issue is that the closer he looks at this child, the less there is to see. It's such a terrible, gut-wrenching moment, and his face reflects all of it.
It’s Dream Academy’s cover of the Smiths song. Both versions are fantastic though.
Yeah, I really adore that scene. That painting is also the inspiration for Sunday in the Park with George, aka one of the best musicals ever made
I never thought of that!
Great point! Maybe Cameron sees himself in the child?
@@samswords9993 Is that because when you first saw the film in the 80s, you didn't know the concept of an existential crisis?
My friend and high school classmate, Kristin, was the girl on the school payphone with Ferris at the 06:50 mark it was our senior year of high school in Chicago…so much of it was filmed in our part of Chicago that I always enjoy seeing my hometown again when I watch it.
That’s really cool!
Yeah man,righteous 😊
So did you also get a bit of a spasm when she started listing what she considers classic films?
The construction guy who dances in a 2 second shot wasn't an extra, he was just a random worker who joined in the fun 😂
They should do a "Cameron Fry's Day Off" where they are now-aged and Cameron became successful etc because after he took the blame for the car his life changed for the better and he actually moves abroad for a big job or something and he kinda kidnaps Ferris and Sloane one last time for a great day off and maybe his boss could be the one chasing them in order to discredit him or something
I'd pay good money to see that done well.
Yeah… they sure as crap can’t get Jeffrey Jones back…
Actually, there's a spin-off movie involving the two parking attendants that stole Cameron Frye's dad's car for a joyride in development at Paramount Pictures.
thats just as wanted as the Big Lebowski spin off for Jesus that no one asked for and also no one watched though@@Madbandit77
If John Hughes were still around, this would be perfect.
This would make a pretty good movie.
I was actually at the parade scene in this movie, my parents were able to arrange for us all to be extras. Amazing experience.
Okay, so you've seen "The Breakfast Club", and "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". You might as well complete the 80s high school trilogy with "Sixteen Candles".
No "Can't Buy Me Love"?
No, no, “Better Off Dead”
Fast times at Ridgemont High
Some Kind of Wonderful is the best.
Might as well do all of the John Hughes movies... ? lol
It is so rewarding to see you fall in love with Ferris, like we all did when we first saw this movie in the theater. I was two years out of high school and wished I had the balls to pull off these kind of shenanigans. We all did. Ferris was a bit of a folk hero to all of us disenfranchised youth.
By far the best reaction to this movie I have seen to date. Great job, Vikki. Another win for you.
The first time I saw this many years ago, the line "Ferris Bueller's on line two," I literally fell out of my chair, convulsed in laughter, and it took a long time for me to recover.
Same, and was bawling when he learn its Cameron on line 1 😂
Though she's out of the movie after the 2nd act, Edie McLurg's a delight ever moment she's on screen.
@LordVolkov between this and "Planes, Trains and Automobiles" she's hilarious 😂
I miss laughing that hard. After a certain age, it's like you've heard all the jokes, and nothing's quite that hilarious anymore.
Now you'll understand the end credits of Deadpool, the first one...chikah chikah ....oh yeah, have you seen Dirty Dancing....
I thought about Dirty Dancing too, since anyone who has seen it will make some comment about Ferris' sister when they recognize her.
They also used it in The Secret of my Success, with Michael J. Fox.
14:13 YOU HEARTLESS WENCH!! 😂😂😂 my favorite line in the movie.
That's how you knew he was a theater kid. :D
FUN FACT:
The 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California has an average recorded value of $15,727,001.80 (USD).
Also fun fact: The car in this movie was not a 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California. It was different car with the Ferrari look-alike body welded on to it.
@carm3d They had 3 replicas made for the movie, powered by Mustang engines, if I'm not mistaken
I have 3
Not only couldn't the production afford a real one, it couldn't even afford the insurance on a real one.
@@carm3d And one of the replicas from the movie sold for $337,000 a few years ago.
I think of this movie as kind fantasy or wish fulfillment for most teens. Ferris was the Deadpool of the 80s, his abilities to break the 4th wall and everything just works out for him
I am so much like Cameron it’s scary. The scene where he sits in the car before going to pick up Ferris really hits home.
Yes, this was life before cell phones, and before the internet.. Back when, if you left your house, you were off the grid. Kids actually went places, and to have a car was like a ticket to freedom... We have lost that kind of freedom being tied to a phone... I miss it. Great reaction. 😊
Yup. I was a free range 80’s kid. It was great AND I am lucky to have made it out alive!
Which makes the spread of well-wishes for Ferris all the funnier. I love the shot of the water tower.
I'm 50 now and feel like I've been forced to attach my phone to my body and bring it with me at all times. I hate it. I want to intentionally start leaving it at home every day, but we've made a society where you might barely survive your day without access to your stupid phone.
Gen X...it's a miracle we survived our teen years hahaha
The extreme connectivity now is why there are missing children reports right away. It gets all over social media and then they update it to say the kid was found, but the story stays online forever.
Fun fact, the actor who plays cameron, is the actor who played the captain of the enterprise-b in star trek generations.
But don't let him drive pick-up trucks around pizza places.
Yes, after highschool, but before Starfleet Academy he did some time as a storm chaser.
He also worked in the New York City mayor's office after his storm chasing days.
And the goofy tourist on the bus in Speed
@@humperdinck He also belongs in a family of rich cutthroats.
I've seen this movie 100+ times in my life and today was the day I learned that what Cameron is saying at the baseball game is "he can't hit, he can't hit, he can't hit"
"Suh-wing, batter!"
Everyone knows he says "Kennedy Kennedy Kennedy, SAHWING battahhhh!" ☝️🤓
I love how much you loved this film. I was a teenager living in the Chicago suburbs when it originally came out, and it was instantly a generational touchstone for us 80s kids, as were many other John Hughes films. Bueller is so many things: a coming-of-age story; a snapshot of carefree childhood soon to be lost; a love letter to Chicago itself. Iconic cast, great music, and brilliant dialogue all working together to tell a fun story. And, yeah, watching it now as an adult, the nostalgia factor is off the charts. Great reaction, as always!
As a 70's kid, I can tell you this film was beloved by teenagers back in the day.
As a 70's kid I can tell you we thought this movie was lame.
@@moondog3056are you serious?? Why??
Deadpool went back in time and gave Ferris Bueller the idea for the after credits scene.
Growing up, I pretty much was Cameron. I lived to try to please my parents. I spent hours after school doing extra credit homework because I didn't test well, just to pull Cs and Ds. I wanted to be an actor and an author, but they wanted me to be a doctor or a lawyer. When I graduated, I went to the UofA, but my mother was so disappointed in me that she told her friends that I went to Harvard. When I finally had my Cameron awakening, I did end up becoming an actor and an author. Funny enough, I've been in a movie with Edie McClurg who played the principle's office manager.
Matthew Broderick was 24 when he starred as Ferris Bueller, while Alan Ruck (Cameron Fry) was almost 30 at the time. Mia Sara (Sloane Peterson) was actually 17 at the time, so she looked more her part than the two guys did. Great film!!!
It was filmed in 85.
23
That makes that kiss gross IRL too
@user-cm7rl4fl3z
Nope, it doesn't.
@@user-cm7rl4fl3z I don’t think I would do it if I were the actor, but I’ve heard arguments that it’s okay since it’s just acting and not real, but I’ve also heard arguments that it doesn’t matter if it’s acting or not. I’m not sure how I feel about it, all I know is I wouldn’t do it myself.
Ferris' mother's license plate had "VCTN" on it. John Hughes also directed National Lampoon's Vacation.
Ferris goes to Shermer High School, which is also seen on Sixteen Candles and Breakfast Club.
Hughes only wrote that film. Harold Ramis (Animal House, Ghostbusters) directed it. I miss them both.
Dads car had MMOM Mr Mom, another movie John Hughes wrote.
"Deadpool did this". Where do you think they got the idea from? This is a classic.
Eddie Murphy did a snippet of 4th wall in Trading Places as well
Born in '71 i was blessed to catch Hughes when he wrote hits "Mr. Mom" & "Vacation" before becoming a director, then caught the rest in theaters as well. My fave will always be "Sixteen Candles".
He & Kubrick my top 2 film makers!
See ya!
✌️🌎❤️
The movie that MADE you stay during the end credits!
I'm sure this isn't the original post-credits scene, but at the moment, as a kid of the 80s, I can't think of an earlier one.
I'm Gen X so this is my jam. It was my favourite movie of all time (until Enchanted came along and took the top spot). I literally have all the dialogue memorized. Ferris didn't invent the fourth wall break, but he brought it to popular culture in a way that hadn't been done before.
just turned 50 yrs old in january, John Hughes movies are my childhood!
Ferris Bueller is actually Cameron's alter ego. He is imagining scenarios while he is sick in bed at home.
Light-hearted comedies are great for a quick mood boost, but much like sugary candy, they usually don't leave you with anything substantial. I think what was truly special about John Hughes was how he could make these light-hearted comedies, and figure out ways to add a bit of substantial depth to them in just the right ways, so that you walked away from the film with something a bit more meaningful while still getting that sense of temporary elation that a light hearted comedy can give you.
Ferris Beullers Day Off was definitely a teen comedy classic
in the 80's which remember really well thanks V.💞🐕🐈💞
Hard to imagine that Ferris Bueller almost became Walter White.
"Moooooooooom! Ferris and Cameron are doing a running sequence!"
Many years back, me and a friend got picked up for trespassing and were sitting in the processing area of the police station with two girls who were there for similar behavior. My friend deadpanned "Drugs?" at them, and one of them started laughing and said, "Oh, I love that movie!" to which we replied, in unison and in the George Peterson voice, "Well, I should say you do!" We didn't get as lucky as Jean, but it was still funny. He also used that voice for a phone call in a Twin Peaks video I did a few years back, and half the comments were to the tune of "Hey wasn't that Sloane Peterson's dad on the phone?" Apparently, no one else has ever spoken that way...it's instantly recognizable.

The monotone teacher in the film is Ben Stein, SUPER smart man. When people meet him they say he is terrible or awesome, never in between. As someone that has met and talked to him I am in the awesome camp. I think it is based on where you are when you two meet, in my case a symposium on the value of the US dollar. He is a legend! Me "Mr Stein, it is a honor to meet you, you are on my top 10 people I wanted to meet" Him (read this in his voice) "really...? who are the other nine?" me " um...um... I was not prepared for a follow up question"
Oh, what a smart man who thinks the universe is only 6 thousand years old.
He worked for Nixon!
@@curtismartin2866 he was a speech writer, he didn't make policy or give him "advise"
@@user-cm7rl4fl3z I didn't say I agreed with all his positions, heck in the symposium I met him as I didn't agree with a few of his points... but he is VERY intelligent on a variety of topics, age of the planet isn't one if them.
W is a fan , when he met him at the White House he ran to him threw his arm around him and said "Bueller Bueller Bueller" he had just seen the movie a few days earlier on Air Force One.
John Hughes, king of teen movies in the 80s. You caught on to the ideals of this movie. "Life moves pretty fast, if you don't look around you will miss it" .
Great choice VKunia! You’re channel is amazing!
Thank you!!😊
The actors who played Ferris’ parents actually fell in love on set and got married.
"Oh honey what?! What kind of telegram is that?!"
A professional one 😉
The cut-off of her final verse is perfect comedic timing, and I love Jeanie's face when she realizes it's not the cops.
The fact that someone sent a sex worker to a high school boy... well, it was the 80s 🤣🤣🤣
This was released within a year or two of Tom Cruise's breakout movie, Risky Business. Which is pretty much all about that.
@@solicitr666 Well, Tom hires the 2nd one himself 😎
"Charlie Sheen is really quite wise" I'm dying 😂
Yes, the 80s were very comfortable. It was dubbed the 'decade of excess'.
This film is set on a weekday in late spring or early summer, but the Von Steuben Day parade is always on a weekend in September.
El nino year? 🤷
Lots of things in the movies don't make sense. That can include the fact that Ferris says that they will graduate in a few months, which back then was usually the first week of June. That would set this movie in late winter or early spring at the latest. But that doesn't seem to be when it is set, weather-wise. But Ferris is magic, and controls everything, including parades.
I guess it all depends on how you measure "a few months"... That could conceivably place it in September... Which would really make you think about what 9 absences would really mean... However, since I buy into the theory that this movie is just a fantasy in Cameron's mind and Ferris doesn't really exist, that makes the date inconsequential
Danke Schoen
I saw it as a kid - a wonderful movie. I recently watched it - and it was so positive, the mood after watching it was so positive that I decided to follow the example of the main character and his motto - I quit my job, which morally killed me when there is nothing but work-home-work, and I was able to remember that there is something besides jobs. Sometimes little things like these movies are enough to change your life. I think the movie is great, despite the year of release.
The reason Deadpool chose that end scene to parody was simply due to the fact that Deadpool is all about breaking the fourth wall and this movie did it first in such a big way.
1. Alan Ruck was 29 when filming.
2. Charlie Sheen didn't sleep for 48 hours prior to his scene to get into character,
3. Ah, the days when MTV played videos.😎
4. IRL Broadrick and Grey had a thing going during the shoot.
5. Not pealing out in front of Rooney would have stopped him from going after Ferris.
6. They have a doggie door, odds are they have a dog. DA🙄😏
7. This was John Hughes' ode to his hometown of Chicago.😇 John Hughes.
8. I'm not in line to be his "best friend" because I wouldn't let him walk all over and/or Bull$hit me.
9. GOOF: It's awfully late in the day to have a full bus load of kids.
10. That same school was also used for "Uncle Buck" and "The Breakfast Club".
"2. Charlie Sheen didn't sleep for 48 hours prior to his scene to get into character"
Cocaine, it's a hell of a drug
6. Especially if it's a dog door big enough for a grown man to fit through...
11. There's a neat little homage to the running scene and the "Oh Yeah" song in Marvel and Sony's Spider-Man: Homecoming while Tom Holland is running through a family's backyard, and the movie itself borrows a bit of influence from John Hughes's coming-of-age movies
Every John Hughes movie has at least one character who seems to be a faerie of sorts, one of their main roles in the story is to help other characters on their self discovery. Ferris is probably a faerie in this movie, and he helped Cameron, but I also think that Charlie Sheen's character was Jeannie's faerie.
Leather jacket, eyeliner, in for a drug conviction... Charlie is dark fae all the way 🤣🤣🤣
I would call those characters tricksters.
@@oltyret ....as are many of the Fae. ;)
@@oltyret FWIW, Q from Star Trek and Mxyzptlk from the DC multiverse are also considered faeries by some definitions.
This was one of your best reactions. You had tons of fun and you understood the deeper meanings of this movie. It's not just about being rebellious and causing shenanigans. This story was mostly about saving Cameron. Once you get that, you see the movie from a whole new perspective. And thanks for sharing your vulnerability with us. You did that in such a true, heartfelt way. All the best 💜
Now this is a definitive classic! No better thing than skipping school for a day and going on an adventure
Actors who played his parents, met on the film then got married in real life.
This was released in cinemas one month after I graduated high school. I was so upset that I had spent way too much time actually in class instead of not off screwing around.
John Hughes movies are "bonding" movies, they are all about alienated people and their process of reuniting with others they are in conflict with. Ferris helps Cameron face his father. Charlie Sheen helps Jeannie forgive Ferris for being so popular.
School back in the 80’s and early 90’s was pretty brutal. I’ve had many teachers that were so tough to sit through it’s not even funny. I loved your reaction to this movie.
17:04 The sound Cameron was making with his cheek has a name. It’s called a “ploit.”
Seriously.
And if you’re ever curious enough about going to a professional baseball game, look for the nearest Triple-A (or other Minor League) affiliate of a Major League team. It’ll cost a lot less, getting to the stadium is usually easier and cheaper (less traffic and lower parking costs), and the food is pretty much the same (but again, usually cheaper). The seats are more affordable and have better views for your money. It’s often more entertaining and a fun family event, not such a big overwhelming experience for a first-timer. I have partial season tickets to the Seattle Mariners’ AAA affiliate, the Tacoma Rainiers, and it’s just a fun way to spend a Sunday afternoon with my mom and friends, people-watch, and maybe see an exciting game.
This film was directed by John Hughes. He also directed The Breakfast Club and Sixteen Candles, and many other filmmakers have tried (and mostly failed) to emulate his ability to capture the spirit of High School life, especially in the 80's. The in-school scenes in Spider-Man: Homecoming were heavily influenced by this film, example: When Peter is hiding around a corner and the chess-club kid starts talking to him through the window is a classic Hughes-esque moment. This film came out in 1986, I went into HS as a Freshman in 1989, so it's just before my time by a couple years, but it's the most representative film about life in HS at the time that is like my own experience. There wasn't all the bullying and general meanness that gets depicted so often. We didn't even have cell phones yet, much less internet or social media, so we'd go to movies in groups or hang out at the mall. And yes, there were parties, but they usually were fairly tame.
I saw this in previews in 1986, knew of it before then....loved it, saw it multiple times. But I was bullied quite a bit. Never took people's shit, but still, got picked on.
One of the best teen films.
This movie is a complete different feel when it comes to nostalgia. I grew up with this movie and I even remember when they made a commercial with him and every single person thought it was a sign to be a part 2 but this is perfect for just a one movie thing
"I weep for the future" that guy must have known something
Ferris' mum and dad met on this film and then went and got married IRL.
Charlie Sheen stayed awake for two days before his scene.
As someone that was a teen when I watched this, and now seeing younger people react to it whilst I am in my fifties... take the message. Life moves REALLY fast. Take every opportunity to just look at it, appreciate it and make the most of every precious second. What did Ferris do with his day ? he took his very best friend and the girl that he loves to a landmark, to a nice restaurant, to an art gallery and then to a parade. That's a pretty good day in my book.
Make all of your days good days. What is stopping you.
I would HIGHLY recommend an 80's movie called "Three O'Clock High"
or... "Can't Buy Me Love" with a ridiculously young Patrick Dempsey
The changing computer data was a Wargames nod which Matthew did a couple years earlier.
This is one of my all-time favourite movies, and your reactions to it were adorable. You are absolutely correct that this movie has a wistful, nostalgic feel to it. I graduated from high school the year this came out, and every time I watch it I feel a longing for those days.
Great reaction! I'm a Gen X'r who saw this in the theater when it came out. LOVED how you commented on all the kids, esp the girl in the arcade who just didn't care about the sexual comment made at her by the principal. That was really cool of you. We older generations don't like when other reactors talk down to us about inappropriate behaviors in old movies. You said: "I like that response. I like that they just don't care." That was cool. Thank you.
When I was about 18 or 19 I met a kid at a place we worked at that had Ferris as his role model, always looking for the best out of a situation and fast talking his way out of issues he made. Couldn't stand him at first, eventually we became friends. He did live a pretty charmed life too. This is a classic movie, and had a pretty fun but bad TV series spin off too. You are many things, but you are not annoying.
Thanks for sharing your reaction, and I hope everyone has a great day
For many years this was my favourite film. I could recite pretty much every line. Great cast, giving amazing performances! Still holds up so well today.
One of my absolute favorite movies ever. I was 15 the year this was released, and it brings back so many great memories.
The theory that Ferris is a figment of the imagination of Cameron can't be true. There'd be no explanation for who Ferris' family & Sloane are, nor why Cameron would be spending the day with Sloane. Many characters talk about & interact with Ferris when Cameron isn't there.
I don't believe the theory either however I should be noted that the theory states the entire day is a hypothetical of Cameron while he's lying in bed depressed. So everyone else is just people he's seen around school. There's really no debunking the theory but there's no proving it either, its just a (frankly quite lame) headcanon
Not literally, but maybe metaphorically. Ferris as a character is pretty much too perfect to be real.
We never see Cameron's parents, and Ferris's parents are quite frankly unrealistically stupid and naive, just like a teen fantasy
@@the98themperoroftheholybri33you never met 'my boy can do no wrong' parents
This theory is not Hughes' intention. Ferris is actually a person within the movie. And in the original incarnation, as per the script, somewhat unlikable.
If you think about it, ending up like Rooney is what would happen to Jeanie if she didn't give up her obsession with Ferris. Despite their efforts, nothing goes well for either Jeanie or Rooney. That's why Charlie Sheen tells her that it doesn't make sense for Jeanie to wreck her life trying to wreck her brother's.
Ferris is probably the worst person to try help Cameron but he's also the only person that has paid any attention to Cam and is worried about him.
When i was in school there was a tradition called senior skip day, in the Spring. It was the last day before the school considered any absence as grounds to hold you back (a stupid policy).
But lots of seniors would take off.
When i did it, i'd been out sick for most of the week before. Apparently a teacher almost called to check on me.
But didn't do anything as fun as Ferris. Just went to the mall (out of state, just in case) and then watched movies in my girlfriend's basement
Welcome to my generation, 80's brat here and proud ❤
It was wonderful to grow up in this decade. 😊
Bless you and be happy ❤
7:04 "Think you'll be alive this weekend?"
I'm dead.
Great reaction as always Vicky!
This movie never gets old, no matter how many times you watch it.
I loved your intro, it was cute and fun.
My favorite scene is at the end when Jeannie is on the other side of the door and hears Mr. Rooney talking to Ferris.
Jeannie waits for the right time and then covers and sticks up for him BECAUSE she knows she beat/caught him and she knows that Ferris knows this to, hence the look on his face plus Jeannie winking to him.
Then of course Jeannie busting Mr. Rooney is classic!
My two favorite characters in the movie are Ferris's Dad and Grace, the school secretary.
You hit the nail right on the head Vicky about Ferris's Dad being the most oblivious person and that to me is the charm.
Grace is just hilarious! She keeps pulling pencils out of her hair, snorts drugs (I'm being cautious because of UA-cam and I'm not endorsing what she does, I just think it's hilarious), she refers to the students by clicks and had some hilarious lines (like "her mother too and"you still want his daytime number").
Keep up the great reactions Vicky and many blessings to you and yours.
Thank you for the insight & Thank you so much for your support always Bradley!❤️ I’m glad you enjoyed my reaction 🥲
I think Cameron is the real central character...he's the only one to grow or learn something about life and himself.
Ferris is what Cameron thinks he wants to be...popular, suave, a rebel.
"When I grow up, I wanna be like Ferris!"
What Cameron doesn't see is all the hustling and background work it takes to make Ferris's life look so easy!
Seriously, if Ferris worked half as hard with his studies as he does to evade studies, we'd have safe flying cars by now.
There’s fan theory that Ferris is all in Cameron’s mind - an alter ego. Like Fight Club or Calvin and Hobbes.
@@dnish6673And like most fan theories, it's ridiculous and not based on anything real. Also, it would make the movie much, much worse if it was true. So Cameron DIDN'T have the best day of his life and get the nerve to stand up to his father, he just lay in bed sick and daydreaming? That would just suck.
Cameron's not the main character, but he is the dynamic character, whereas Ferris doesn't change.
Hi Vicky!😊 Wow! You are finally watching this classic comedy!🤯 Great reactions to this very well made comedy, Vicky!!!!🎬👏👏👏👏 "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" (1982) is another enjoyable 80s high school film.😉
John Hughes was a genius at capturing that style.. Ferris, Breakfast Club, Weird Science.. all brilliant in their own way, but undeniably John Hughes.
29:55 "Here's where Cameron goes berserk."
"Here's where Cameron's soul snaps like a Twix Bar." #TheSpoonyExperiment
Both Matthew Broderick (Ferris) and Alan Ruck (Cameron) had worked together on the stage and that's how they both got cast in "Ferris Bueller." I believe Broderick had suggested Ruck to the filmmakers to play his friend.
Rolling on the floor. When you saw Charlie , it's surprised me. The bad boy to this movie. I don't think you remember you saying anything about" baby", have you not seen" dirty dancing"maybe you did and I missed it. It tickle me to this day, the ending is so widely known as the running scene. One of the most iconic movies there is, definitely a cult following. We grow up so fast don't we. Wouldn't change it for the world being generation x. I am Bueller.. my favorite scene, still got to be the museum. Without saying a word it explains so much about the characters. Zigzagging with the grade school kids in a handheld train. To remain forever a child. Thanks for reminding me of my Bueller. Don't leave home without it.
1986 i was 19 years old and this movie is beyond awesome iconic movie hands down it was just s carefree time for me the best time of my life 🎸🤘 it just beyond an awesome time u would have enjoyed it for sure!! Thank you for being here 💯 & im glad that u enjoyed this iconic movie 🎥💯 cheers from Pasadena CA
John Hughes is the GOAT of making movies that make you nostalgic for your youth. Hell, he makes me miss the 80s and I was born in the 90s. IDK how that even works, but he does it. 'The Breakfast Club' is a must-watch of his that makes you feel the exact same as this movie.
One of my favorite films of all time! Watched this on VHS with my sister a million times in the late 80's early 90's!
God I miss Chicago.. the outdoor house music parties in the park sponsored by the city are cherished, loved memories. That vibe where everyone is dancing and having fun together, no color, creed or religion, just dancing. Chicago is amazing.
35:40 "Why is this so funny?" Because a full page of dialog got compressed (without loss) to a single word being repeated back and forth about three times.
This was a great flick to go see. Friday night, cruisin' down the coastline. Headed to the midnite movie theater for a blast of good times. Monster sodas, a platter of nachos, and this movie always was fun.
The blonde actress who played Simone in the roll call scene, is Kristy Swanson. She would go on to be the only Buffy the Vampire Slayer, in the big screen movie.
Yes.. In the 80's.. We enjoyed life and the outdoors... Especially on a nice sunny day! :) Most important thing in our lives at the time.. Friends.. Bikes and outdoors!! In a nutshell... we enjoyed FREEDOM!! lol
Graduated high school in 1985, so I can definitely relate to this movie. Whenever I am going through the TV channels and this is on, I stop.
This movie was a staple of my late childhood/early teenage years. One of my preferred of all time.
Matthew Broderick indeed wasn't a teenager anymore, but he wasn't that old either: he was 24 years old when the movie was released, exactly the same as Michael J. Fox when he starred the first Back to the Future movie, it's a pretty long tradition to use young adult actors to portray teenagers.
And a fun fact about the iconic musical part of the movie: "Twist and Shout" is a 1961 song written by Phil Medley and Bert Berns made worldwide famous by The Beatles when they released a cover of it in 1964. As the movie was released in 1986, it's like we made a movie today and used a song by NSYNC from the time right before Justin Timberlake left the band. When I realized that a few years ago on another reactor channel, it made me feel REAL old.
Grace, the secretary, was always the nosey next door neighbor in 80s sitcoms.
She's the greatest
He was 23 when it was shot 24 when it came out. Please rember in the 1980's fashion wise we were slowly getting off the 1970's. You have to go to a Mets game it is so fun.
Also, this film makes me miss Chicago, where I spent the best years of my life. That city grabs you and never lets go.
It's a bit fitting that you wanted Ferris to "Home Alone" his house since John Hughes wrote both movies. By the way, Rooney is the father in "Beetlejuice"
An absolute 80's Classic, and one of my favourite movies of All-Time.
It was not long before this came out that I started cutting class (back in eighth grade), and I sensed an immediate kinship with Ferris Bueller (ya know, without the coolness and popularity).
Matthew Broderick was about 24 years old when this was filmed. But Cameron was almost 30! I was still in high school. For those who were not lucky enough to grow up in the 80s, check out how the kids are dressed in this movie. We did not wear neon! Well not much. Mostly in the early 80s. Sloane dresses exactly how I remember the more fashionable/rich girls dressing.
We must teach kids 80s awareness, as Kevin Bacon has argued. I love the reference in House:
House: I don't think Ferris Bueller is his real name.
Martha M Masters, too young to know: Why not? Seriously. Who is that?
The team look stunned.
Taub: They say he's a righteous dude!
Pro tips, Charlie hung out on lots of Hollywood sets because of his dad, and friends with actors, but not an actor. He was hanging out on this set, and suddenly they needed someone to play the druggie jail guy part, and the rest is history! Also on every cut in the scene back to him, his hair changes! Also Ferris dad here, is partners with Steve Martin in, Planes Trains and Automobiles! The secretary was personal friends with the great John Hughes! Watch all his movies. She addlibbed her phone call in Planes Trains and Automobiles. The teacher was the airport announcer in Planes! Charlie and Jennifer had scenes in Friends and two and a half men! Deadpool 1 Paradise the last scene here, in his last scene!!
The actors who play Ferris's parents fell in love on the set of this film, and got married.
Reminds me of my Senior Year back in 1985...our school had a unofficial 'Senior Skip Day', I and 5 other friends piled into his borrowed Mom's van and drove across the bay to Tampa, FL. :D We went to the big mall, an arcade, hit on some girls (Struck out terribly), when and had pizza and drank wine coolers on the beach, we were back by 6pm. :) Epic day.
When I was 18 in 1997 I worked in Chicago for the summer and got to go see a Cubs game in Wrigley field and it was awesome such an iconic and historic ball park.
Mathew Broderick and Jennifer Grey dated for some time after starring in this movie as Ferris and Jeanie. The acters that portrayed their parents ended up getting married in real life.
