additional description: As Ferris and Sloane kiss in front of a stained-glass window, Cameron concentrates on George Seurat’s painting “A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.” Explaining the pointillist style — and moviemanking, teenage angst and adult insecurity — writer-director John Hughes says, “I always thought this painting was sort of like making a movie, the pointillist style,” he says. “You don’t have any idea what you’ve made until you step back from it. ... The more he looks at it, there’s nothing there. He fears that the more you look at him, the less you see.” See more: John Hughes video explains ‘Ferris Bueller’ scene at Art Institute. |
