Don't You Forget About Me
2010, English. Directed by Matt Sadowski-Austin.
In 1991, filmmaker John Hughes disappeared from Hollywood. In 2008, four filmmakers went to find him.
Throughout the ’80s John Hughes defined the teen movie genre and spoke not only to that generation’s teens, but every generation that has followed. Then in 1991 he hung up his director’s hat and disappeared into obscurity ala J.D Salinger. In 2008, a group of young Canadian filmmakers set out to complete a documentary about the man with what they hoped would culminate with an interview, which would be his first since 1999.
