In Memoriam: John Hughes

He took the "teenage wasteland" and made it real. Director John Hughes gave the 80s a chance to reflect its time. I worked with lots of teens in the 80s and Hughes' movies were great discussion starters- and revelations of secrets we 30 and 40 somethings could learn.

This montage made the rounds a few weeks ago when he died. It uses The Who's Baba O'Riley as a soundtrack of the cuts from Hughes' movies.

Enjoy.
