Anthony Michael Hall for "Sixteen Candles" 4/14/84 - Bobbie Wygant Archive

[@jcheri9948]

It's crazy to hear him casually mentions "yeah we're working on a little movie called The Breakfast Club" and it became a classic that so many people love to this day.

[@sttarch5150]

He was the real star of Sixteen Candles. As John Hughes would say, he had great comedy skills and timing.

[@sarahssentongo2587]

He’s exactly like his characters lmao

[@dr.loomis4221]

Well...yea I didn't expect him to be a 7 foot tall black man in real life.

He seems Sweet. A kind of geek actually. His Voice was so smooth

@@clryvs I looked up a lil bit about him, and recently saw him yelling and freaking out at people in a pool, and a different video where he hit his neighbour, idk about his personal relationships tho

yeah nows he’s just fat and abusive

[@micah5189]

loved the way he started singing rolling stones at 2:25 he's hilarious

[@nena200able]

He's always been my favorite character

[@devonferris]

He is so freakng FUNNY. He reminds me of a classmate when I was in high school.

[@arrowverselover100]

Every class always has that one class clown, and that is him.

[@ghouveins3587]

He’s adorable

@@tokio8084 Umm...because I am a NATIVE English speaker and under the basic rules of English grammar, you would NEVER contract HE WAS to HE'S. I have NEVER in my life ever come upon this being done. What is your native tongue?

[@jadefox5285]

I ALWAYS LOVED this guy 😂 he is CLASSIC 80's funny

[@reap_25]

I love his little chuckle. So cute.

[@hextoken]

Anthony Michael Hall and Michael J Fox had so much personality and charisma.

[@bimbobrat2612]

so chaotic yet so calm i love this man😭

[@tc4007]

I was in the gym at Oakton CC when they were filming the dance scenes. Very warm summer day. Watched AMH do his little dance over and over. Who knew it would become a neo-classic 🎥?

[@elysharay7423]

Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, The Breakfast Club are all my top favorites. I’m 35 and thanks to my mom I’m proud to say she’s the reason for this lol!

[@rebeldetail6134]

I miss our youth 80s were awesome

[@Flyingtaco82]

My gosh, what an adorable kid. 😍

[@mrdorf2784]

From what I’ve seen he hasn’t changed even today. Still cracks jokes. 😂

[@grantmail4112]

I loved this guy in these classic movies.. but he looks about 80yrs old now.. huge and grey old man. He's still a legend tho!!

[@blairknight8615]

first liked him in national lampoons vacation. he was the best rusty

[@aprilsky8474]

Enjoyed his performances in 16 Candles and The Breakfast Club very much.

[@MoisePicard-xe3sd]

My guy Farmer Ted. 😎 I love him so much.

[@NiGiff]

Met AMH at a comic con several years ago and I asked him if he had to chose moving NY over LA to start an acting career, which would he choose, and he said NY, so I did. Thanks Michael! You're a class act, man!

[@kenw.1112]

HE REALLY STANDS OUT ! HE IS EXCELLENT!!😊😊😊

[@riverball6016]

I actually love him so much ☺️

[@ShaneC27]

Smart kid, great guy. Made some great films

[@nataliebenson6968]

im in love with this boy ugh

[@sarcasticallyrearranged]

As he was here or as an adult?

[@acutemadness]

@@sarcasticallyrearranged lol he's a lunatic now

[@VinMar-m6w]

​@@acutemadness for stating that conservative actors are discriminated against and blacklisted in Hollywood? It's true, ever since liberals took over Hollywood in the late 1960s. They haven't exactly been subtle about it in recent years, since shifting far-left, politically.

[@iluvmitski3427]

Forever my fav interview of him

[@briancayabyab2539]

He is way too cool!!!!!!

[@bellapage7019]

The braces! he was so Young

[@sislau]

It's funny to see her re-record her questions to him separately after the interview.

[@prettyyoungthingpyt5015]

Yeah. Kinda weird with the fake laugh. I never knew they did all that behind the scenes..

[@mesicek7]

Cheaper than having 2 camera's recording at the same time.

[@lindacristhopher2410]

Created such a crush on him in The Dead Zone series...learned to appreciate his younger work watching him now :)

[@ramseybacerott3697]

Saw the movie at the cinema and laughed at many of his scenes. I was in 7th grade at the time.

[@TopSecretVid]

when actors were real and genuine..

[@jayshomer4191]

I was first year junior high at the time of this interview. What an era !

[@MrJFoxProductions]

2:45 - 3:14 is a gem of a subject… Just for years later from this interview, he fulfilled exactly everything he had said with such an amazing foresight and set his destiny - in 1988 he starred in a movie called “Johnny Be Good” - John Hughes had nothing to do with that film - Anthony had hit the gym, bulked up, and played the lead quarterback in the film, shocking, his fans who had come to know him as “the geek”. For aficionados, Paul Gleason played his coach, and guess what, he wasn’t calling Anthony “peewee” (breakfast club reference) anymore.👍🏾

[@leedummett4412]

hall is cool. he is underrated.

He spontaneously broke out into song just like he did in the garage scene with Molly.

[@akiogoto9469]

Without farmer Ted, 16 Candles could never be a classic film. 😄

If only the ridiculous watermark was larger and more ruinsome. I wonder why all videos don't do that?

Nice to see 16 year old without the phone😂

[@JonJonJonJonJonJonJonJon]

His transformation in 3 years after this confuses me to this day. Did he take growth hormone ??

[@cr8iveamboy775]

Seems like a cool guy.. Although later in his career he started to play the a-hole jock.. It seems, The Geek & his braces friend are the inspiration or template for Beavis & Butthead!

[@nins7457]

It’s kinda cringey how the interviewer keeps repeating “the geek”....like he wasn’t that much of a geek just young and going through puberty. Anyway, he seemed like a laid back dude and just plain cool. 💜

[@jedijones]

He's literally credited in Sixteen Candles as "The Geek."

[@kennybegeske8824]
