John Hughes

 I decided that I have a crazy love for John Hughes. I think he is 
the greatest film producer to ever grace this earth. I have lots of
moments where I just simply need a 'John Hughes' marathon of 
all my favorite films he has done... (which is like, all of them.) haha.


Anyways, on Sunday, not only did my sister & I watch all his movies
but we turned it into an 80's movie marathon. I have to just express 
my dying love for these movies because I feel like they go unnoticed 
because they are from the 80's. I just think that, that is the best part
of them. We get so caught up in these action packed films, and these
Duckie <3
sappy soppy love romances (don't get me wrong, I'm die hard chick flick
fan) My point is that these movies are old, but well put together.


By well put together I mean:
Outfits- Molly Ringwalds floral pants & mint green earrings are to DIE for
in Pretty in Pink. && lets not forget how talented she is sewing her own prom dress!
Scripts: John Hughes shares my sense of humor. Duckie cracks me up.
  Secretly wanted him to be with Andy at the end of Pretty in Pink. He redeemed himself though!
Music: Lets just say I am 'itunes broke' from buying all of their 
soundtracks... OMD I love you. 
Plots: Doesn't get any better than your parents forgetting your 16th birthday
or going to detention because you had nothing better to do. 
Or my favorite... the best friend falling in love with her best friend, but finds out he 
is in love with another girl, so she helps him by teaching him how to kiss her even though she is crazy
about him. ugh. That is truly some kind of wonderful.
Molly :)
SO darling. For me it all started with Sixteen Candles, then built from there. 


You can tell Molly was a favorite of Mr. Hughes... How could you not? She is fabulous.
So my next point is... if you haven't seen these movies or even heard of them.. let me help you. :)
The Breakfast Club
Pretty in Pink
Sixteen Candles
Some Kind of Wonderful



















Grab yourself a bowl of popcorn, a comfy couch, a soft blanky &&
Enjoy.. & I hope you can share the same love for them as I do :)
