Ferris Bueller's Day Off is a 1986 comedy film written and directed by John Hughes. It stars Matthew Broderick, Alan Ruck, Mia Sara, Jeffrey Jones and Jennifer Grey. The film was released by Paramount Pictures on June 11, 1986. The film received a PG-13 rating by the MPAA for sexual humor, suggestive images, and for language. Along with The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, and Pretty In Pink, it is one of the most quoted movies of the 80s.[citation needed]

The film follows high school senior Ferris Bueller (Broderick), who, one spring day (after nine previous absences throughout the semester), decides to skip school again and spend the day in downtown Chicago with his girlfriend Sloane Peterson (Sara) and his best friend Cameron Frye (Ruck) while creatively avoiding his school's dean of students (Jones), his resentful younger sister Jeanie (Grey), and his parents. Bueller frequently breaks the fourth wall to explain to the audience his techniques and thoughts. In the opening scene, graphics appear onscreen illustrating his explanations.
