This presentation is about John Hughes's Ferris Bueller's Day Off. The film follows Ferris Buller as he and his friends explore Chicago. The city is this glorious place with hundreds of possibilities and opportunities. The three friends explore Willis Tower, Wrigley Field, the Glencoe Beach, and many other historic places. The director incorporates mise-en-scene during the scene at the Art Institution of Chicago; the camera movement, focus on the artwork, and music all create feelings of peace. The street parade and overall spirit of the city reflects Ferris' personality and why he thinks it is so important to enjoy life.
