R.I.P. John Hughes - Nick H - 07 Aug 2009
Just heard the sad news that the Film Director John Hughes has died at the age of 59. Of a heart attack this morning in New York.
If your a 30 somthing like myself John Hughes films were very special. Sort of generation defining.
If your older or younger you tend not to know about them. but if you were a kid in the 80's they were up there with BTTF.
Ferris Bueller's Day Off and The Breakfast Club are some of my favorites.
He also used some of my favorite cars in his films. Ferrari 250 GT California, Porsche 928, Ferrari Mondial, Pontiac Fiero.
