Visible crew/equipment: Near the beginning of the movie there is a brief scene around the empty house. While the camera is in the kitchen you can see a reflection of one of the set guys moving in the fridge handle.
Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)
Plot summary
Directed by: John Hughes
Starring: Matthew Broderick, Jeffrey Jones, Mia Sara, Alan Ruck, Jennifer Grey
Ferris Bueller fakes sick to his parents to get a day off school. His best friend, who is home 'sick', helps Ferris get his girlfriend out of school and they have a day in the city.
Ferris: Cameron has never been in love - at least, nobody's ever been in love with him. If things don't change for him, he's gonna marry the first girl he lays, and she's gonna treat him like shit, because she will have given him what he has built up in his mind as the end-all, be-all of human existence. She won't respect him, 'cause you can't respect somebody who kisses your ass. It just doesn't work.
Trivia: Throughout the movie, many different characters either sing or hum the song "Danke Schoen". Ferris sings it in the shower, Mr. Rooney hums it while he is waiting at Bueller's front door, Jeanie sings it while running down the stairs after kissing Charlie Sheen, and Ferris sings it again during the parade.
Question: What did Rooney mean when he told Grace to "go soak your head"?
