Wow.

Just read this blog post from Alison Byrne Fields, a woman who was a teenager in the 80′s that struck up a pen pal relationship with John Hughes. It’s a great post, with some intersting insight into the man’s character. So much so that I am very pleased to read that he was indeed the man his fans hoped he was.

While I read this, I sat there in awe of both John and Alison, what an amazing thing they both did. I also realised how much those films meant to me although not quite as life changing as her experience, I did and still do (I re-watched PT&A and SKoW at the weekend!) love his films.

Lastly, and before you read the article Jezz… do so in private! I almost cried reading her blog post and I recon you will blub like a baby.

I’m sure you noticed the new look. Any +/- comments?

For those of you with iPhone/Android or (Blackberry!), the site has a mobile theme that ROCKS! I am very pleased with it, keef will see the site in native iPhone layout that even supports rotation.

Not sure what it does (if anything) with Wimo.

Guys,

I cant believe one of my favorite directors of all time has died RIP John Hughes…….

Bugger…………. 2 of his films will always stay in my top ten, Some Kind of Wonderful and Planes Trains and Automobiles.

Very very sad day to know that he died or wont again make another classic.
