John Hughes has Final Curtain Call
John Hughes, the man behind such hits as: The Home Alone Franchise (1-3), The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, Ferris Bueller's Day off, Flubber, Dutch, Drillbit Taylor and many more, has had his final curtain call at the age of 59.
While visiting family in Manhattan, the Iconic writer,producer, and director passed away of a heart attack after a morning walk.
Hughes is survived by his wife Nancy, his two boys John and James, and his four grandchildren.
I've watched and bought at least 80% of his movies, the man knew how to tell a story. I was a little shocked to hear about his passing, and a little shocked that I haven't heard any more about it in the mainstream, except for the occasional 14 second excerpt. I'm going to watch my Hughes Collection right now, so I'll be busy for the next few days. R.I.P Mr. Hughes.
Hasta Lasagna, I got my EyEs on YA!!
