Author and friend of Retroland James Melzer tipped us to this worthy project: “Don’t You Forget About Me: A Tribute To John Hughes.” Here’s the trailer:

We love the idea that, first of all, so many people agreed to talk with these indie filmmakers… and that the film isn’t just about Hughes, it’s about the quest to actually find and interview the influential writer / director.

The film is released on DVD in Canada on November 3rd, 2009, and a United States release is pending. Find out when and read about the making of “Don’t You Forget About Me: A Tribute To John Hughes” at the official website.

The work of John Hughes, especially his North Shore teen comedies, was a huge influence on us. What about you? Tell us about it in the comments!
