(Audio) 1999 radio interview with John Hughes

[@Al-jg1ko]

John Hughes was a comic genius and he made great comedies in the 80s with his adventurous screenplays and characters always coming together in the end of the film finding their destiny but why didn't this radio host ask him during the interview about Planes, trains and automobiles and his collaboration and rememberance experiences with John Candy? May John Hughes RIP.

What took him from us?

[@SaintMartins]

Every major city had an import record store like Wax Trax in the 80's & 90's. A secret oasis for Underground music selling both local & international music. In my city Vancouver Canada we had "Odyssey Imports" (1982 -1996) The place to buy Electronic, Industrial, Goth, Shoegazer, Punk, Alternative Rock, Experimental music & Thrash Metal.

1:14 The sound of someone gatekeeping THE BREAKFAST CLUB away from John Hughes.

[@williamshaw9047]

Is Hughes rocking the hospital orderly look?

[@Maserbeams]

Ha, 4AD band... I guessed he was going to say Xymox!

[@JULIAN8845]

I LIKE HIS FILM'S IT'S A SHAME HE DID NOT LOOK AFTERHIMSELF. NOBODY WANTEDTO BUY HIS 6MILLION DOLLAR HOUSE HE WORKED FOR.HAD TO GIVE IT AWAY TO AVOID TAX DEATH DUTIES.

[@harpoon_bakery162]

please explain the duties on the 6m home if you could. and who gave it away? i'm sure you must be talking about his home outside of Chicago that was a working farm?

[@IvanLendl87]

Jim DeRogatis ruins this interview. Not surprisingly.

[@Maserbeams]

Must be the guy talking too much.

[@williamshaw9047]

His new book on R. Kelly is worth reading.

[@TheKitchenerLeslie]

Sounds like he didn't understand Norwegian Wood.

[@seminiferousbuttnoid]

Constant interruptions and fake laughter by Jim Derogatis and the other hack. Let the man speak.

[@harpoon_bakery162]

ah , his ass-hole days, or was that post home-alone. i'm pretty sure he was impossible to work for even at this point. Where's the rest of the interview? he could have talked to these radio guys forever, I'm sure this is like 2 hours at least.

[@ZelindraArkathius]

John hughes was a known asshole? where's the source for this? I'm curious.

[@anothermonday5664]

That was going on during his first movies lol. As soon as he started directing they said he was getting way too meticulous with things and making executives nuts.
