This controversial film, released in 2024, received great critical reviews and garnered two Oscar Nominations. The film is important because it demonstrates that one can still have an artistic voice without creating art that is actually propaganda, catering to an audience for likes. It also benefits from the director being foreign to the nation, providing a different perspective.

1986's Ferris Bueller's Day off is a classic film from the 80's. If you were a teen at that time you probably watched it or you at least know about the film. Great comedic filmmaking from Joh Hughes.
