The John Hughes classic dropped in June 1986, pulling in $70 million on a $5 million budget. Matthew Broderick starred as the slide team faking sick to ditch school, dragging his girlfriend's loan and buddy Cameron on a wild Chicago adventure in. A stolen, red Ferrari. Hughes directed and wrote it, right after hits like 16 candles, The Breakfast Club, and pretty in pink. Broderick snagged a golden globe nod for best actor at just 23 years old. Fast forward, Broderick 64 now, married to Sarah Jessica Parker, and still killing it inflicts like no hard feelings with Jennifer. Lawrence, plus only murders in the building and voice work in Fianna and Cake. He owns the Ferris legacy, saying he's made peace with it. Mia Sar, 58, who played Sloan, loves shooting that epic parade scene with twist and shout.

Jennifer Gray, 66, Ferris' sister, Jeannie, dated Broderick after filming in stars and recent joints like A Real Pain. Charlie Sheen's quick cop scene as the delinquent gave his career a boost to her platoon, and two and a half men. Even the parents, Cindy Pickett and Lyman Ward, keep booking gigs. With the big foro coming, it's a perfect time to relive that ultimate skip day.
