There was some confused & indignant reactions to my statement that Sloane ends up with Cameron & not Ferris. I’ve based this belief on many many viewings of the movie, discussions with fellow fans, an interview I once read where John Hughes said that Cameron and Sloane end up together (which of course I can’t find), and some wonderful Hughes essays that I’ve read over the years. seularen posted a gorgeous paragraph or two about Sloane & Cameron & said:

Sloane and Cameron totally end up together. Sure, Ferris is super excited about marriage, but do you ever think he’d actually go through with it? Of course not. Plus, Ferris isn’t really a real person to Sloane; he’s more of a caricature. Only Cameron really sees Ferris for who he is, which is a confused teenager propping up his huge cut-out image of a Titan amongst men so he can hide behind it.

The moment that cements Sloane/Cameron for me is actually when they’re talking about Ferris during the parade. It’s their ~shared interest, if you will, but you see the realization sinking in that Ferris is bigger than both of them. The parade is when you see Ferris truly enjoy himself, and it’s in that moment when he’s at his biggest. He leaves Cameron and Sloane both behind in his brightest moment, and I think he’d leave them both after graduation as well.

(I may have written a film essay about this once.)

Also, I want to read that essay! It’s a great debate and I enjoyed reading the responses. Proof once again that John Hughes was genius.

YES This is great to read first thing in the morning. I have always loved Cameron… probably because I’m attracted to people who have the capacity to be genuinely sad… not that they necessarily are sad but they have a certain appreciation for the emotion. You think you want Ferris but Cameron’s the one who will sit with you at the gynocologist when you’re getting your yearly check-up.

This will always be my favorite movie. The complexity of the relationships in this movie is much more than someone can understand in one viewing. Maybe you have to grow up watching it over and over from different angles and different stages in life. I don’t know.

If you ever want to really dig into the brilliance there’s an audio commentary that Hughes did for one of the DVD releases. It’s relatively dry stuff, but he talks a lot about the real life Ferris that he based his character on and much more.
