John Wilden Hughes, Jr. (February 18, 1950 – August 6, 2009) was an American film director, producer, and screenwriter. He directed and/or scripted some of the most successful films of the 1980s and 1990s, including National Lampoon's Vacation, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Weird Science, The Breakfast Club, Some Kind of Wonderful, Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Beethoven, Uncle Buck, Career Opportunities, 101 Dalmatians, Home Alone, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York and Home Alone 3.
Hughes was born in Lansing, Michigan, to a mother who volunteered in charity work and John Hughes, Sr., who worked in sales. He spent the first twelve years of his life in Grosse Pointe, Michigan. Hughes described himself as "kind of quiet" as a kid.
In 1963, Hughes's family moved to Northbrook, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, where Hughes’s father found work selling roofing materials. It was there that Hughes attended Glenbrook North High School in Northbrook, Illinois, the school that would provide inspiration for the films that would make his reputation in later years.

Genres: Drama,She Whispers in my ear
Can I get you a cold beer
While all that wildlife is covered with oil
Strumming my six string
Trying not to sing
About those shrimp, beginning to spoil
Here we go again destroying our mother earth
Hunting down her last buffalo
Some people claim that it’s Big Oil to blame
But I know, it takes two to tango
Well, I know the reason
I go there in season
It’s not to watch an oil well blow
But the gulf is a beauty
So let’s do our duty
How it got there, I’ll never know
Here we go again destroying our mother earth
Hunting down her last buffalo
Some people claim it’s politicians to blame
But I know, it takes two to tango
I slipped on a tar ball
On the beach after nightfall
So I got on a plane and flew on back home
But there’s fuel in my big truck
Cause just like you, I suck
We love our petroleum, it helps us move on
Here we go again destroying our mother earth
Hunting down her last buffalo
Some people claim that there’s somebody to blame
