Brew News: John Hughes, RIP


Director/Producer John Hughes who gave us the iconic 80's films Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Pretty in Pink, The Breakfast Club ,Weird Science, Home Alone and my all time favorite movie Sixteen Candles among many many others, died of a heart attack, yesterday while taking a walk with his family in NY. Hughes was 59. Even though the suburban Illinois experiences was sooo far removed from my City kid life,I F'loved and connected with the teen angst and humor of Molly Ringwald in her many Hughes incarnations. Thanks for that Mr. Hughes!

Otis Redding and The Duckman serenade us, in his honor.

So long Mr. Hughes. Thank you for Home Alone and all of the other movies I am suppose to see because they are iconic.
