i got lost today in the art institute trying to find the painting that cameron had an existential crisis in front of but it was fucking worth it
"Oh, he's very popular Ed. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wastoids, dweebies, dickheads - they all adore him. They think he's a righteous dude."
I have seen this film more times than I can count and I still do not understand the age difference between ferris and jeannie?????? I always assumed that jeannie was older but then why are they both in high school??? ferris is leaving school next year so there's no way that jeannie could be a year older unless she was held back?????? and if she's younger then how come she got a car and he didn't????????? are they meant to be twins???????? are they less than a year apart in age but still in the same school year????? someone please explain or I'm gonna have to resurrect john hughes to clarify
when i was a kid i always thought cameron had a crush on ferris and you know what? i was right
tag yourself i'm cameron frye experiencing stendhal syndrome while ferris and sloane are happily making out
i genuinely don’t believe there’s any moment in film history funnier than when mrs bueller says “he’s truly a very sick boy” and then it suddenly cuts to ferris just going DLDLDLDOOooOOoOOO on his flute
Cameron: I’m dying.
Ferris: You’re not dying, you just can’t think of anything good to do.
I want a friend like Ferris Bueller. Even if he’s a sociopath.
