Seen in FBDO
At several points during the parade scene in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, we get a good look at the mass of Chicagoans who showed up in response to the open call for extras to create the crowd of spectators. At 01:03:57 in the film, the shot passes by three men who are dressed and look nearly identical. During the director’s commentary featured on many home releases of FBDO, John Hughes refers to them as “triplet lawyers.”
