John Hughes död vid 59-års ålder

Dags att se The Breakfast Club

Hollywood-profilen John Hughes som ligger bakom 80-talsklassiker som Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, Planes, Trains and Automobiles och Home Alone (OK inte bara 80-tal) dog nyligen av en hjärtattack.

John Hughes, the producer, writer and director whose 1980s films such as "Sixteen Candles," "The Breakfast Club" and "Some Kind of Wonderful" offered a sharp-eyed look at teenagers and their social habits, has died, according to a statement from his representative. He was 59.

Hughes died of a heart attack while taking a morning walk in Manhattan, according to the statement.Hughes, who was also a prolific screenwriter and producer, was at his peak in the 1980s, when his films -- which starred young actors such as Molly Ringwald, Judd Nelson, Anthony Michael Hall and Jon Cryer -- dominated the box office and were hailed by critics for their thoughtful teen protagonists, rarely portrayed with such sympathy in comedies at the time.
