Uncle Buck

John Candy stars in John Hughes' big-hearted comedy as the eponymous oaf who has to babysit his brother's kids: difficult teenager Tia (Jean Louisa Kelly), cute little Maizy (Gaby Hoffman), and the perpetually inquisitive Miles (a pre-Home Alone Macaulay Culkin). Candy's trademark grown-up-who-never-grew-up act provides the perfect launch pad for domestic chaos and some cracking exchanges, topped by Miles' quickfire interrogation about Buck's personal life.
