Planes Trains & Automobiles – Power To Believe (John Candy)
www.megaupload.com This is the Dream Academy song Power to Believe (Instrumental) as in the movie of “Planes,Trains & Automobiles”. An amazing piece of music used to great effect. In memory of John Candy & John Hughes.
This movie had me laughing so much I almost fell out of my seat, until this part/music was played — then you get an idea of what Dale Griffith’s life has been like the past year!
Amazing movie, with amazing actors and write/director Hughes.
RIP Mr Candy and Mr Hughes

This is back when Comedies had a deeper purpose than to get the cheap laugh or gag in. John Candy’s movies in particular go far beyond that and display a narrative that can be enjoyed with a mixture of emotions. It has no genre.
This film and other 80’s comedies are the reason why I can’t stand watching comedy films. Films such as this, Breakfast Club, Midnight Run and others were so brilliant that I can’t help but cringe at some comedy films these days.
You never see Hollywood actors over 2 stone any more. Very shallow don’t you think? That’s why new films are CRAP! Film companies only care about image and not the plot or acting abiity. This really annoys me. But people are too easily pleased and gullible enough to believe the hype and part with their hard earned cash to watch this dribble. This is a sad time for genuine movie lovers who appreciate fine cinematography.
I like the part when theyre are on the plane and john candy takes his shoes off and says. “my dogs have been barking all day” Steve martins face makes me laugh.
RIP JOHN CANDY

John Candy is a legend, peroid. Nowadays comedians have to take the piss out of people, John was different-he didnt have to piss take to make you or anyone laugh. Johns acting and comedian skills are UNDERRATED. He will go down as the best.!!
RIP JOHN CANDY!!

in terms of art and passion, go for your dreams. dont let ‘weight’ stand in your way
Really cool comment Mike, you hit the nail on the head. Candy was an incredible talent, as was John Hughes. Truly memorable movie and the was perfect for it…very emotional.

Ive never known any other film to successfully arouse so many different emotions. (laughter, sadness, shock) etc…….
This is the greatest road trip movie and buddy film ever to grace the silver screen.
John Candy was a genious.
I also like Uncle Buck, Armed and dangerous with eugene levy. (Also very funny) and Who’s Harry Crumb.
Absolutely brilliant and very much missed.
RIP JOHN CANDY

“I haven’t been home in years…”
“I uh.. i don’t have a home. Marie’s been dead for eight years”
Can’t help but tear up around this part and at the end when he meets Neal’s family.
