He had most of his big hits by about the age of 40 and then disappeared...rumor was that he became a recluse of sorts...
That f$@%^* guy. He made this flick "Sixteen Candles." Not bad. There's tits in it, but no bush, but Ebert over here don't give a shit about that kind of thing 'cause he's, like, all in love with this John Hughes guy.
In Shermrun Illinois!
I could have sworn he died from AIDS long ago...
/always got Hughes and Holmes confused.
slow clap...
It is just the right time for one.
sucks. i loved all of his movies. the fricken 80's were awesome. i wish i had a time machine that actually worked.

Coach had put me in. . .we'd be state champs, no doubt. No doubt in my mind.
Thanks to the Breakfast Club, I got a carton of smokes for Christmas each year.
