John Hughes

John Hughes is an American film director best known for his comedy-dramas about teenagers in the 1980s.

Due in part to the music selected for many of his films, and due in part to his sympathetic treatment of "outsider" characters, a lot of goths (especially those who were drawn into the subculture between 1984 and the mid-1990s, when his films gained a whole new audience via home video and cable television) LOVE John Hughes' films. In previous decades, most films about teenagers portrayed "outsider" teens as promiscuous, delinquents, thugs, and of below-average intelligence with dubious morals, at best. Hughes instead portrayed "outsider" teens as relatively good kids, often with sympathetic family troubles (Pretty In Pink), or as victims of abusive or neglectful parents (The Breakfast Club).
