Director John Hughes Dies at 59

I've enjoyed his work over the years and he launched a lot of careers. This news report says that he "had largely turned his back on Hollywood to run a farm in northern Illinois." I don't know why, though.

"Anyone? Anyone?"
 
Thank you John Hughes for the movies that defined my generation. Your works will always be remembered and you will be missed...

mikey
 
i was so surprised to hear this! what a loss. :(
 
*Sigh* :(

"Sixteen Candles' made me laugh for years.

"The Breakfast Club" made me think larger thoughts than I ever had before at a very young age...

At his peak, NO one captured the 80's adolescent zeitgeist the way that he did. In his own way, he was a genius.

And one who will be very much missed.

My favorite scene of all Hughes films was the museum scene in "Ferris Bueller" set to the Smith's "Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want".(*8*)

That's my favourite, too, especially when Cameron is looking at the painting and focusing on the little boy with his mother. The camera zooms in on their eyes and there is such pain in Cameron's eyes, wishing he had had a childhood (read: mother) like the boy in the painting.

Film making at its best, that.
 
Having watched Sixteen Candles yesterday afternoon I spent the evening thinking about John Hughes and lusting over Michael Schoeffling. I wondered why Hughes stopped making movies, I learned that he did not stop making movies but rather he wrote them but did not direct anymore. To read that he passed on this morning was very sad indeed. I would have loved for him to return to telling teen angst stories set around his fictional Sheman Illinois once again. Heck, maybe even a gay story set in that era, but alas that is now never going to happen. God rest his soul! Thank you Mr. Hughes for your films. :wave:
 
Truly sad to see him die.

Apparently, there is a documentary on him coming out.
