John Hughes

Chances are that if you grew up in the 80’s and 90’s, whether you knew it or not, at one time or another John Hughes was your favorite filmmaker.

A prolific writer, director and producer, Hughes was behind 80’s classics Planes, Trains & Automobiles, The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles, and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. He also wrote the screenplays for Home Alone, Dennis the Menace, Weird Science, and many others.

He passed away today from a heart attack atĀ age 59.
