John Hughes was basically the king of the coming of age teen comedy. He also directed Sixteen Candles, Breakfast Club, Plains Trains & Automobiles, and Uncle Buck. He was equally prolific as a writer, if not more so, and had a hand in the scripts for all of those movies plus Christmas Vacation, Pretty in Pink, and a little movie called Home Alone. I always loved him because a lot of his movies take place in Chicago, and some were filmed very close to where I grew up.

Newer watchers put all this modern judgement onto older movies -- I see it on youtube all the time -- that aren't supposed to be taken that literally overall. I've seen other reactors call Ferris a sociopath. It's bizarre. It's a comedy.
