The ruse seems perfect, right down to Cameron's dad's "borrowed" Ferrari, but Ferris's nemesis, high school principal Ed Rooney, is determined to bring the truants to justice. Ferris Bueller (Matthew Broderick) is a tricky but harmless fast-talker. But he knows how to have fun, which is exactly what he sets out to do when he feigns illness and talks his parents into letting him stay home from school. The perpetually lucky Ferris enlists his hypochondriac best friend, Cameron Frye (Alan Ruck), into springing his girlfriend, Sloane Peterson (Mia Sara), from class, and the three embark on a raucous downtown Chicago adventure. From Wrigley Field to the Art Institute of Chicago to a Polish pride parade, Ferris and his friends make the most of their day off. But Ferris, Sloane, and Cameron might not get away with playing hooky. Ferris's sister, Jeanie (Jennifer Grey), is determined to prove that Ferris is faking sick and make him pay for it, and the bumbling school dean, Ed Rooney (Jeffrey Jones), is sure that Ferris is pulling a fast one. Another classic from writer-director John Hughes (SIXTEEN CANDLES, THE BREAKFAST CLUB), this film features a star turn from Broderick as the charismatic Ferris. Watch for Charlie Sheen as the juvenile delinquent in the police station and comedian Louie Anderson in a brief appearance as a flower deliveryman. Theatrical release: June 11, 1986.
Filmed in and around Chicago, Illinois, including at Glenbrook North High School, Northbrook, IL, which is writer-director John Hughes's alma mater.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off Video Ferris Bueller's Day Off Movie Review  good purchase
WOW! I didn't think the movie would look this good. Out of my collection this has the best picture quality. At least on my own monitor. Detail is really good.Looks great. I like it's look even better than "Monsters Inc." Also I wish I had purchased it here because of the great price. I paid almost twice the price. The movie isn't bad either. What a bargain! Buy it! Oh did I say it looks great? Wow!

great movie
this was a classic 80's flick. there were so many followers spun off from this movie and it seems that even today it's still a favorite to most people. this tells the life of a typical teenager who gets into all the trouble he can, but always seems to catch a break and get it to go his way.who wouldn't want to have a skip day like that.
