1) Some Kind of Wonderful (1987) - great pain and empathy, maybe doesn't nail the ending
2) Pretty in Pink (1986) - Hughes blossomed as a writer with this, sensitive about class, I like the re-done ending
3) Breakfast Club (1985) - a lot of comedy, great juggling, beautifully cast
4) National Lampoon's Vacation (1983) - funny, dark, sly, feels real
5) Home Alone (1990) - I didn't like this much once but now I love it
6) Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986) - in some respects made too fast but great heart and humour
7) Mr Mom (1983) - has it aged? I'm too scared to find out - I used to love it though
8) Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987) - career best work from John Candy, very sweet moments
9) Uncle Buck (1989)- as above
10) Sixteen Candles (1984) - look, I know. I just remember how funny it was and all the strands came together.
