Cinephilia - "Ferris Bueller's Day off" movie review

Awesome! I was searching and I didn't get a much better word to describe the movie. Brilliant and engrossing entertainment.. Yes, I was talking about the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day off".

It brings back the memory of younger days and lots of dilemma we all faced during our school days. Faking the sickness to avoid school attendance - A classic, remarkable and evergreen.

It's a John Hughes film shooted in chicago downtown back in 1985/1986, showcasing famous attractions like Sears tower, Art institute of Chicago, Skyline and Wrigley field. Wikipedia claims that this film according to Hughes was dedicated to his love on Chicago and he calls it "A love letter to Chicago".

Being encountered ostentatious Chicago before, I could relate some of the places even today after almost 3 decades. City's downtown and Astonishing skyline always treat to One's eyes.

Avoiding further spoiler alerts, and still interested/curious to explore/learn about the film's musical tracks which is another good feature adding feathers to its laurel.

Also thanks to one of the Academy trainer (forgot his name) who suggested/mentioned this movie during one of his training. That triggered a interest in me to watch and explore.
