The Big Picture It's hard not to look at Matthew Broderick and still see Ferris Bueller, even 38 years after the movie's release. Broderick's performance in John Hughes' staple teen classic Ferris Bueller's Day Off is one of the most iconic movie performances, not just of the '80s but of all time. Ferris Bueller is boyish charisma personified, and Broderick breathed so much life into the movie with his energetic but controlled performance.
Related 'Only Murders in the Building' Season 3 Uses Matthew Broderick Better Than 'Painkiller' Maybe Netflix can learn from Hulu. Matthew Broderick's Role in 'Election' is a Huge Jump From Ferris Bueller Close Alexander Payne's satirical comedy Election sees Broderick take on a role that couldn’t be further from Ferris Bueller and actually feels more aligned with Ed Rooney. Broderick’s Jim McCallister is certainly a character Ferris would’ve hated and rebelled against. At the start of Election, he is shown to have a good rapport with some of the students and appears to be genuinely liked.
Interestingly, Tracy Flick as a character more so represents the ideas shared by Principal Rooney, not Ferris. Where Ferris Bueller stands for teenage rebellion and having fun without the consent of adults, Tracy Flick represents compliance; she is by the book and focused in her mindset. However, her assertive nature probably would have led Ferris to respect her position, and although they may not have been friends, they would've had a mutual understanding.
