Mr. Hughes' passing came as a shock to me. I was a big fan of his movies 'The Breakfast Club', 'Sixteen Candles', and 'FBDO'. Who didn't fall in love with Judd Nelson or Anthony Michael Hall? It really made me sad to see that he passed. From the age of nine, those were my favorite movies. To this day, whenever any one of them is on, I will watch it. I don't remember much about the music from 'Sixteen Candles,' but the song 'Don't You Forget About Me' is one of my favorites. And the crazy song near the end of Ferris when he's racing his family back home. Definitely good. The teen movies today are all the same thing. Get the geeky girl cool, the cool-guy asks her out and they boink like bunnies at the end. 'Nuff said.
