Ferris Bueller... You're My Hero - Jason Klamm
'Ferris Bueller... You're My Hero: The Story of the World's Most Famous Day Off' by Jason Klamm (1984 372-page hardback)
The definitive behind-the-scenes look at one of the most beloved comedies of all time: Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Author Jason Klamm takes readers inside John Hughes’ creative hot streak—fresh off Sixteen Candles and The Breakfast Club—as teen angst gave way to slapstick humor, surreal storytelling, and a hero who knew exactly where the camera was.
Built from 125 all-new, exclusive interviews, this all-access account features candid stories from Matthew Broderick, Alan Ruck, Cindy Pickett, James Hughes (John’s son), producers, soundtrack musicians, parade attendees, museum staff, high-school actors—even the legendary school-bus Gummy Bear Girl. Additional Hughes alumni, including Jon Cryer and Andrew McCarthy, weigh in on the lasting impact of the film and its creator.
