[dons Ferris anorak] Nope, its The Dream Academy's version of Please, Please, Please Let Me Get Want I Want. And I'm sorry to say I think its the better version.

I'm guessing we all know that the teacher (Bueller? Bueller?) was a teacher in real life? That the Ferrari was a replica done by the same company that built the Miami Vice Daytona Spyders? That the actors who played Ferris' parents fell in love on the set & got married? That Boderick dated his sister in the film, Jennifer Gray, before settling on old Horseface? That the only reason why it got a 15 rating was because of the fk that Cameron says when he's in the Alfa. (I'll go, I'll go, he'll keep calling me.)?

Everyone know that? Bueller? Beuller? Oh ok then.... I'll ps off. {removes Ferris anorak)

[FourWheelDrift]

And Cameron (Alan Ruck) was 29 at the time, Broderick 24 and Mia was closest to high school age at 19.

It also has Jeffrey Jones, surely one of the best school antagonists of all time.

Caddyshack was also on last night, 80s trip down memory lane goes on

Hmm, I wasn`t aware of that, I just thought it was an extended (12"?) version of The Smiths.

Everyday is school day.........

That'll be Ben Stein, who's been in everything from Seinfeld to Planes Trains and Automobiles. He's also done voices for Family Guy. He's well known in the U.S.

It's the white saloon that Cameron owns. Alfa Romeo 2000. If that's when he says it (can't remember).

[FourWheelDrift]

For me it's seeing a moving unmolested Pontiac Fiero that's different (his sisters car). So many of them have been converted into Ferrari's.

[williamp]

Wow. never noticed that Alfa. Clever: dad owns a Ferrari, there is some logic in the son owning an Alfa.

Oh, if you want to re-live the scene with the ferrari (or even ther swimming pool scene, arf arf) then the house is up for sale:

Didn't Ferris's dad drive an Audi?

Cameron's house was up for sale last year, $2.3 million for a slice of movie history.

The house, the glass garage is accessed around the side of house:

Sorry just read your post about the house for sale!.

I think the swimming pool scene was at Sloanes house?, not Cameron's.

Yep, red Audi 100/200 type badged as an Audi 5000 in the US.

It's good to know there are other Ferris Bueller geeks out there!
Here's a few that just make me smile.
