Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
Ferris Bueller?s Day Off
In short: Ferris Bueller?s day off is the best comedy movie ever made. It was cleverly written and brilliantly acted. No one can refuse to go along with Ferris Bueller, especially when he talks to the audience throughout the movie. It may be a comedic movie but Ferris says some of the most thought provoking quotes that have ever been said in a movie:

The journey begins. Ferris, his girlfriend Sloane (Mia Sara), and Cameron (best friend) do everything imaginable: steal Cameron?s father?s Ferrari, go to a baseball game, observe priceless works of art, sing in a parade, eat at an elite restaurant, and completely destroy the Ferrari.
While these events take place Ferris? principal (Mr. Rooney) and...
