John Hughes — the JD Salinger of movie directors — dies, age 59

August 6, 2009 By admin

A shame. Now snobs will admit they always loved the movies they made fun of when he was alive.

What an ear.

Yes, John Hughes worked best depicting a very slender slice of humanity during a particular era; so did Jane Austen and Woody Allen.

Lots of melancholy 40-somethings out there tonight….
