Fight Club (Two-Disc Collector’s Edition)?
My favorite thought-piece about Ferris Bueller is the “Fight Club” theory, in which Ferris Bueller, the person, is just a figment of Cameron’s imagination, like Tyler Durden, and Sloane is the girl Cameron secretly loves.
For those who ‘get’ it: your new guru may be found here.
