I saw a mention of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off recently and was reminded again about how much I love that movie. For as long as I can remember it’s been my hands-down favorite movie. The funny thing is, I didn’t watch it when it first came out. I think I discovered it on TBS some Saturday afternoon while I was in High School—well after the release in 1986.
There’s just something about this movie that struck a cord with me. It didn’t hurt that there was a scene at Wrigley field. But there was just something about a simple day off from school and some life contemplation that made this special.
Anyway, here’s the Unofficial Official soundtrack since the Official Official soundtrack never got made. I compiled this about 5 years ago. It makes for some great ipod filler!
