1950-2009
John Hughes, the writer/director of Curly Sue (1991), Uncle Buck (1989), She’s Having a Baby (1988), Planes, Trains & Automobiles (1987), Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (1986), Weird Science (1985), The Breakfast Club (1985), Sixteen Candles (1984) has died of a heart attack at the age of 59. [TMZ] Hughes died this morning in NYC after suffering a heart attack while on a morning walk. John was in NYC to visit with his family.
That 80′s feeling was always around thanks to his endless stream of classics, just the other day I watched Ferris Bueller’s Day Off for the twentieth time and added it to the MFMDB where it belongs. We won’t forget about you Mr. Hughes.
