John Candy in Only the Lonely
The Big Picture March 4th marked thirty years since John Candy left this world at just the age of 43. His death, which came after a heart attack while filming Wagon's East, was a shock to fans worldwide, but in his short career, Candy left a lasting legacy as one of our greatest comedic actors. From his time on SCTV, to his domination of the 1980s with movies like Spaceballs and Planes, Trains and Automobiles, John Candy was one of Hollywood's most beloved stars.
Candy had a minor role in The Blues Brothers, and had a bigger one the next year in Stripes, but it was the mid to late 80s when Candy really took off, first with Splash, then major comedies such as Planes, Trains and Automobiles, The Great Outdoors, and Uncle Buck, which were all either written or directed by John Hughes. In 1990, Candy was part of his biggest movie in a minor role for Home Alone, which was written by Hughes and directed by Chris Columbus.
