John Hughes, the man behind an amazing list of iconic movies that were the voice of and spoke to a generation in the 1980's, died from a heart attack that felled him while he was out on a walk.
If you don't recognize his name, perhaps you'll recognize the titles of some of his modern classics of teenage angst, the hell that is High School, and the inner life of 'The Outsider'...
The Breakfast Club
Sixteen Candles
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
If you've never seen any of these films... Go Rent Them, Now, You Dorks!
If you've seen them, now is a great time to see them again... to Laugh With Them... to (Try Not To) Cry With Them... And - Most Of All - To Be Soooo Greatful That You're No Longer In High School...
Thanks, John Hughes... From All Of Us Oddballs, Outsiders And Outcasts Of The World.
Rest In Peace.
