Hughes made some of the definitive “teenager” 80s movies – Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles, St Elmo’s Fire, Home Alone and many others. Just some of the ‘definitive moments’ are listed here.

And then this fantastic blog post shows just what kind of person John Hughes could be.  (In fact, if Post of the Week were still going, I suspect this would be a hands-down winner)
