Product Description: The great John Candy (Summer Rental, Spaceballs) stars in this outrageous comedy as an idle, good-natured bachelor who’s left in charge of his nephew and nieces during a family crisis. Unaccustomed to suburban life, fun-loving Uncle Buck soon charms his younger relatives Miles (Macaulay Culkin, Home Alone) and Maizy (Gaby Hoffmann, Now and Then) with his hefty cooking and his new way of doing the laundry. His carefree style doesn’t impress everyone, though—especially Tia (Jean Louisa Kelly, Mr. Holland’s Opus), his rebellious teenage niece, and Chanice (Amy Madigan, Field of Dreams), his impatient girlfriend. Uncle Buck is the last person you’d think of to watch the kids. But with a little luck and a lot of love, he manages to surprise everyone in this heartwarming family classic from iconic filmmaker John Hughes, writer-director of Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club, Weird Science, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
