Role of Place in Ferris Bueller's Day Off

Life moves pretty fast, if you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. These are the words uttered by Ferris Bueller, the happy-go-lucky teen who from the very beginning of the movie, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, sets the message that he's going to take experience all that life offers. This movie is more than just a high school student's fantasy on how to spend a typical school day; it's …

… spend our ideal day away from school. This movie presents a fantasy of throwing caution to the wind, saying screw school, and doing everything imaginable in only one single day. Some people say that there's no possible way that Ferris could do all that he did by 6:00 pm, but come on, this is Ferris Bueller, he wants to see the entire city of Chicago by 6pm in one day, then he can do it.
