TRIVIA: When Buck goes to the party to find Tia he hears the Rap music playing and jokingly says "Who's That? The Grass Roots?" The Grass Roots were a popular band in the late 1960's that had a string of hits including "Lets Live For Today", "Midnight Confessions" and "Temptation Eyes" among others.

Buck's car (which he called "The Beast") was a 1975-78 Mercury Marquis coupe.

Danny DeVito was considered for the role of Uncle Buck.

Director Trademark (John Hughes - "eyes"): close-up of eyes widening in horror.

The movie was originally intended to be shot in the St. Louis area rather than John Hughes's traditional Chicago. Filming was about to begin when the decision was made to move the shoot to Chicago (the reason being that the film was set in winter and the winter of 1988 was unseasonably warm in St. Louis,leading to the change).

Uncle Buck : Trivia

The noise that Buck's car makes when it backfires is that of a gun shot and a firecracker.

Almost every set was built in a local high school gymnasium,including the two-story Russell house.

One night during filming John Candy went to a bar with Tarquin Gotch and spent most of the night there meeting people. The next day John Hughes heard a caller on a radio talk show describe his evening with Candy. Hughes was upset with Candy and despite Candy's assertion that Buck was supposed to appear disheveled, Hughes canceled his scenes for the day and told him to get himself together and get some sleep.

During Miles' interrogation of Uncle Buck (22:36 to 23:01),John Candy wrote out the script's dialog and wore it atop his head so Macaulay Culkin could read the lines more quickly and keep the pace of the scene very fast. (Note that this would be the take of the scene when the camera was set for close-ups of Miles.)

The mole sceen is so funny!!!

It's been a looooong time. I miss John Candy...
