Explore 4 reasons the Art Institute scene in Ferris Bueller's Day Off is so memorable
In Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, three suburban teenagers skip school, drive into Chicago, and explore well-known sites like the Sears Tower, Wrigley Field, and the Art Institute of Chicago.
The scene inside the Art Institute lasts only 2 minutes, but it is arguably one of the most memorable from the 1986 American teen comedy.
Here are at least 4 reasons this museum scene is so unforgettable:
Showcases a whopping 40 pieces of art
Distinguishes the movie from other hedonistic teen comedies of the time
Speaks volumes about the film's characters and its director, John Hughes, even though it contains no dialogue
Represents a beautiful tribute to the power of art
