FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF
June 8, 2020  | By David Bianculli  | 1 comment

Freeform, 8:30 p.m. ET

 
Writer-director John Hughes absolutely nailed the American cultural zeitgeist with this 1986 comedy, which stars Matthew Broderick as a high schooler with lots of brains and savvy, but very little motivation or respect for authority. Alan Ruck and Mia Sara play his cohorts in skipping school for a day, and some of the most memorable of Bueller’s moments come courtesy of the actors playing the exasperated authority figures Bueller leaves behind in his wake. Jeffrey Jones, for one. And Ben Stein, absolutely, for another. “Bueller? Bueller??”
