    The significance of Cameron focusing on Georges Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" at the Art Institute of Chicago became clear to me only decades after first seeing this film in the 80s as a teen. The little girl in the white dress is in the center of the painting, not in shadow, and she is the only figure facing the viewer in a painting described [by Artnet] as depicting the "double-edged sword of social spectacle and isolation". She is seeing, perhaps questioning, the viewer and conversely being seen by the viewer, while unnoticed by the people filling the painting. It's not difficult to imagine how this might resonate with Cameron existentially. Another piece of Bueller trivia is that John Hughes never released an official movie soundtrack and it had long been sought after by fans. A limited edition (5,000 units) soundtrack was released in 2016 on the 30th anniversary of the film's release by La-La Land Records, a production company specializing in soundtracks. I'm a very ecstatic owner of one of these, which comes with a thick booklet full of information and commentary about the music in the film!

    There is now a large group of Ferris haters, but it's quite obvious in some moments that he is a typical immature teen boy who doesn't really grasp the consequences of some of his actions. When the car gets wrecked it's a wake up call. Also, Ferris is impulsive and outgoing to a fault, while Cameron is anxious and reserved to a fault. Ultimately they balance each other out.

    The girl on the school payphone at the 05:43 mark is my high school classmate, Kristin…it was our Senior year in Chicago…and much of the Chicago stuff was filmed near us. She had quite a memorable Senior year 👍🏻 John Hughes had originally cast actress Kristie Swanson for that part…but due to a change in the shooting schedule, my classmate got the phone scene. Hughes then wrote the “Simone” scene 03:30 to make it up to Swanson.

    23:57 Back in the 60s, reversing to take miles off the odometer could still work with a lot of cars, so the idea isn't as crazy as it seems today. The "Ferrari" (it's actually a kit car they used, and not the real deal which would probably have cost somewhere around the entire budget of the movie, if not more) is meant to be 1961, which makes Ferris' idea a solid one.

    - Alan Ruck (Cameron) and Matthew Broderick (Ferris) were already good friends before the film. In fact, Matthew encouraged Alan to audition for Cameron. Their friendship goes back to the Broadway production of Neil Simon's play, Biloxi Blues. And when Ruck is "Mr. Peterson" on phone, he was actually doing his impression of the director of Biloxi Blues, Gene Saks. - John Hughes said that he had written Ferris for Matthew Broderick, but the role was also offered to Anthony Michael Hall, who had done several Hughes films (Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, Weird Science, and National Lampoon's Vacation). He turned it down due to other commitments. - Molly Rigwald wanted to play Sloane, but Hughes said that the role was too small for her. - Mia Sara, who played Sloane was 18 when it was filmed, and her only other screen credit at the time was Ridley Scott's fantasy film Legend, which had tanked at the box office even though it starred Tom Cruise, and a heavily made-up Tim Curry. - Jeffery Jones, who played Ed Rooney, got the role after playing Emperor Joseph II of Austria in 'Amadeus', and Hughes told Jones that he'd be known for Ed Rooney for the rest of his life, and he is..among...other...things...😬

    The parade in the movie, was an actual parade happening in real life. Filming for the scene took place over two Saturdays. On the first, director John Hughes used the fact that there was areal parade happening to his advantage. Hughes was able to take long, genuine shots of the celebration to establish authenticity. Construction workers and window washers can be spotted jamming out to Matthew Broderick's lip-synced rendition of "Twist and Shout." These were not choreographed dancers or extras hired to play a part - instead, they were just people going about their everyday jobs. When they noticed the parade and heard the music, they joined in with everyone else In the DVD commentary Hughes talks about how even the event organizers didn't realize what the filmmakers were doing. He said, "It was an actual parade which we put our float into - unbeknownst to really anybody. Nobody knew what it was." The parade was the annual Von Steuben Day Parade

    A lot of the Savage Steve flicks of the 80s did similar stuff to what Ferris did post-credits, but written out. I think most all his comedies had little slips in between the credits telling folks they'd be almost home if they'd already left, or saying the line for the bathroom's probably not that long anymore. Then the very last thing would say "The film's over. You can go home now."

    Worth noting that both Broderick and Grey were also in their 20s at the time. Mia Sara was the only actual teenager in the main cast.

    I loved this movie as a teen. Then my dad watched it and summed it up thusly: A spoiled kid gets his way all day. Maaaaan had no argument for that. LOL. Loved my dad for his succinctness. But still a fan of this movie. Cameron was me as well. Hell I think Cameron was all of us. We wished we were Ferris. But we were always Cam. He's the real hero. Stay gold you guys!!!! And when I lived outside of Chicago, went to the Gallery and stood in front of that same painting. Def a Cam moment. 🙂Sloan was, and still is, gorgeous!!! Huge crush on her!

    A little trivia... You see the keyboard Ferris is using to make those sickly sounds? That's an Emulator II sampling keyboard. It was a professional piece of electronic gear that sold for $8,000 in 1984; it would go for $24,000 today. (So Ferris couldn't really complain about not having a car, but then John Hughes wasn't one for worrying about story logic.)

    I have watched this film dozens of times, in full form on TV and in numerous reactions... and this is the first time I've noticed Cameron is wearing suspenders with a belt. It's a commentary on how brittle and insecure a person he is. And walking around Chicago, anyone catch that Cameron is wearing a Philidelphia Flyers shirt instead of a Chicago Black Hawks shirt? Oh, and I first saw this in the theater. Made the after-credit engagement (in the striped robe) all the more meaningful. Have to impart my own high school experience. I got a boyfriend in my sophomore year, in October. During Christmas, I was helping my dad stuff signed cards into envelopes to send folks, and I kept a card for my own use. School was broken up into 6wk grading periods; 3 absences during a grading period meant a phone call from the school. Absences required a signed note from the parent to explain the absence and request it be excused. I would make the note and forge my dad's signature. I would skip school on a day with no tests and never in the same week I had a legitimate absence. I'd take the bus to school and walk the mile to my boyfriend's house, arriving after his parents had left for work and his sibling had gone to school. Mornings 'in his room', then afternoons at his college. Then the transit bus back to the mall and walk the half-mile home, arriving at my usual time. One day, instead of the college, we went into the city; that was a fun day! So, this film is nostalgia to me, even though my era was in the late 1960s.
