Silver Screen Podcast - Ferris Bueller's Day Off Review
Episode 134 - "Ladies and gentlemen, you are such a wonderful crowd, we'd like to play a little tune for you. It's one of my personal favorites and I'd like to dedicate it to a young man who doesn't think he's seen anything good today - Cameron Frye, this one's for you."
Ohhh yeah. Welcome back film fans to a brand new episode of the Silver Screen Podcast where this week, well, we're ditching our responsibilities, having some fun and joining our friends on Ferris Bueller's Day Off. D.K is MIA, possibly on his ninth sick day (#SaveDK) so host Mike is joined by returning guests Michael Whaley and Sandy Eavenson to break down the fourth-wall breaks, the madcap adventures, the relatability vs the implausibility and the bigger themes and great character work at play in the movie. There's discussion about John Hughes' writing and direction, from the genesis of the script to how it fits within the Hughes ouevre. We'll also discuss the iconic performances; from Matthew Broderick's career-defining lead to Alan Ruck's reflection of our insecurities, right down to minor roles like Charlie Sheen's method acted cameo or Edie McClurg's scene-stealing hilarity, and much more. There's in-depth discussion about why Cameron is the most important character and why his storyline still impacts us today, even being the impetus for Ferris' actions that gives playing hookie a necessary nobility. We'll talk about how the film reflects perfect days in our younger years and captures the moments of uncertainty and doubt as we transition into adulthood. We'll also discuss our favourite jokes, best moments and personal experiences with the film. As always we end with thoughts from our audience and our conclusions, star ratings and final score. So join us and help "save Ferris" as we Twist & Shout into the review...
