BONUS CLIP: One of the Most emotional scenes in movie history

Saltzman Sees...Uncle Buck (1989)

Uncle Buck is a John Candy masterpiece.  Nobody knew how to bring out the lovable Candy better than Director John Hughes, whether it was Planes, Trains and Automobiles, The Great Outdoors, or Only the Lonely.  Jean Louisa Kelly was marvelous in her first role ever.

What ensues is one of the most memorable journeys in movie history of a 'boy' becoming a man by helping look after his nieces and nephew.  It is one of the greatest movies I have ever seen and it certainly stands the test of time.

It is the Best Family Picture 1989.
