John Hughes
John Wilden Hughes Jr., auch bekannt als Edmond Dantès, war ein US-amerikanischer Filmemacher, Komiker und Geschäftsmann. Er ist vor allem für seine Drehbücher, Regie und Produktion der Filme „Das darf man nur als Erwachsener“ (1984), „Breakfast Club - Der Frühstücksclub“ (1985), „L.I.S.A. - Der helle Wahnsinn“ (1985), „Ferris macht blau“ (1986), „Ein Ticket für Zwei“ (1987) und „Allein mit Onkel Buck“ (1989) bekannt. Darüber hinaus schrieb er die Drehbücher zu Filmen wie „Pretty in Pink“ (1986), „Schöne Bescherung“ (1989), „Kevin – Allein zu Haus“ (1990), „101 Dalmatiner“ (1996) und „Flubber“ (1997).
Hughes gilt weithin als Ikone der 1980er-Jahre, dessen Coming-of-Age-Geschichten die Erfahrungen von Teenagern authentisch einfingen. Die meisten seiner Filme spielten in Chicago, wo er seine Jugend verbrachte. Seine Werke verbanden oft Slapstick-Komik mit herzzerreißenden Momenten.
