Fully Funny Flick 🎬😂🙌 Rad Facts: John Hughes wrote the roles of both Samantha Baker and Farmer Ted, specifically for Molly Ringwald and Anthony Michael Hall. He had Molly’s headshot over his desk while writing the script, and he had worked with Anthony Michael Hall on National Lampoon’s Vacation. This movie was perfectly casted. R.I.P. John Hughes, you’re a Legend. - Billy Rad . . #80s #genx #80smovies #johnhughes #sixteencandles | The '80s Decade
