I adore them both. It broke my heart when John died. He will never be forgotten. What a beautiful gesture that Steve Martin showed his family.
Me too😢
Us too! Thanks for bringing back memories. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
I used to have a movie poster of Planes Trains & Automobiles on my dorm room ceiling. I'm 53 now and just watched it on a plane home... my daughter looking at me every time I laughed out loud. This movie and these actors just mean a lot to me. They are one of a kind.
John Candy was phenomenal in JFK, a rare dramatic role for him and he excelled in it-The film came out the year I was born (1991). Trains, Planes and Automobiles will forever be an all time classic...R.I.P John 🙏🏽
My favorite movie, just brilliant
Same dude
I read somewhere that John was so kind--he'd often buy everyone on the set lunch or dinner. He treated people with the utmost respect. So much of his personality was projected into his screen characters. The last five minutes of PLANES, TRAINS, & AUTOMOBILES is phenomenal.
I read that he cooked a spaghetti dinner for the crew when "Wagon's east" wrapped.
@@joeljoss1916 unfortunately that's a lie because john candy died WHILE filming wagon's east
@@salanderfication yes,it is unfortunate. I heard wrong, he cooked a lasagna dinner for his assistants the night he passed away. I would venture he probably made the dinner first. And yes it was while the movie was still in production.
Martin and Candy. Two comedic legends. Can't believe that it's almost 30 years since we lost Candy. RIP John.
It;s crazy that he's been gone so long.. He Was and Is my favorite actor
We absolutely agree! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. We miss John 😥😥
I’ll never forget as a teenager in March of 1994; my father picking me up late at night at school when our ski club returned. He told me that he heard on the radio that Candy died, and I remember being so surprised and sad.
A wonderful American and a wonderful Canadian, working in perfect harmony.
I think Trains, Planes, and Automobiles is the best comedy ever. It's completely hilarious but the pathos ending is the icing on the cake. Great movie
Couldn't agree more! Thank you for sharing your views on this. Made us miss John more.
@FactsVerse being Canadian and from Edmonton where SCTV was filmed when John Candy passed on for me it was like when John Lennon died for others.
Definitely the best Thanksgiving movie.
@@patrickc3419 how many Thanksgiving movies are there?
@@elijahjames8837
Not very many for sure! Off the top of my head; Home for the Holidays, Scent of a Woman
John Candy told Catherine O'Hara in a phone conversation before he went to Durango, Mexico to film Wagons East that he had a premonition that something bad was going to happen; he just didn't know it was going to happen to him. RIP John. Your adoring fans miss you.
Very interesting, thank you so much for sharing this info about John. We miss him.
Maybe he wasn’t feeling good. Never know
Well Candy was obese and used drugs and alcohol so it was only a matter of time before something bad happened to him .. very funny guy though and I
Miss him and John Hughes
That’s an interesting bit of trivia, thank you for sharing
@@brianmeen2158 he used drugs? And was an alcoholic? I never heard that before.
It's hard to believe John Candy has been gone for almost 30 years. His comic genius is sorely missed.
I’ve watched this hundreds of times. It’s one of my all time favorite movies. The loss of John Candy was so tragic and a loss of a brilliant talent.
So you must realize, as I did, that the line he quotes at 4:41 was not in the film.
That final shot in Uncle Buck, John Candy with that totally sincere smile and the little wave to his niece that freezes. Just a wonderful shot that is so touching, to me at least.
Me too!!!
John Hughes trademark (the last scene being a freeze frame). 🙂
Completely agree.
No doubt
@@patrickc3419john Hughes was a racist
The final scene of Trains, Planes and Automobiles was filmed in the home next to my parent's home. By the time they filmed the scene it was very warm (it was a generally warm winter) and they had to make snow for the scene where they drag the trunk down the street and up to the house. During the filming my Father was out in the yard getting his garden ready for the season when John Candy came through the yard using the well worn shortcut in order to get to the house where the filming took place. Candy stopped and talked to my Dad for a long time about the neighborhood and the schools, Dad said he had no idea that Candy was an actor, for starters because he was so nice! My Dad finally realized that he had been talking to a star when some neighborhood kids ran into the yard to get an autograph, which John Candy kindly obliged.
John Candy was one of my favorite comedians. I will always miss him.
Glad to know that you're a fan of John. In your opinion, what is his finest role?
@@FactsVerseI loved John in anything but my personal favorite is cool runnings
Planes,Trains and Automobiles to this day is my favorite holiday movie. What I loved is how funny the movie was while also telling a touching story about compassion and helping your fellow man. In my opinion, this is the type of movie you want your kids watching because it teaches them to be kind to others because you never know what someone is going through.
I love both of them! 🤣 The news of John Candy broke my heart!
Glad to know that you're a fan! What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
I was a kid when he died but it broke mine too, I grew up watching his movies.
I remember exactly where I was when John passed. Cried!! SCTV is where I first met his comedic talents in early 80s. Miss him dearly.
I watch this movie every thanksgiving for about 15 years. It’s tradition. I love it so much. The talent, the comedy, and the heartfelt moments were palpable.
Tradition for me as well.
Tradition for me as well.
Planes, Trains and Automobiles!!! I could watch that movie on repeat. John, you are missed.🕊️❤️🙏
One of our favorites too, you've got fine taste! What other types of video would you like to see?
It used to be....in New York, if you just mentioned the name John Candy, people would fall all over themselves telling you how wonderful he was.
Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. If we may ask, what other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
Brothers from a different mother 💕
I love the fact that John's wife and Steve were/are there for each other. These two men were meant to be in each other's lives, I can imagine the deep loss, its much easier when surrounded by others with the same connection, same loss 💗 🙏🏼
I'm glad I found this, two of my very favorites!

@FactsVerse I love videos like this with Steven Martin & John Candy.
Everything positive, I love reading about the good people among us, doesn't have to be celebrities but we all love it when they connect like John & Steve did, thank you for this video ❤️
I was living in Woodstock, Illinois when and where much of Planes,Trains, and Automobiles was filmed. One day when I was pushing my youngest child in a stroller down to the town square where some of the filming was taking place. Suddenly, a trailer door and out came Martin and Candy to much applause. John Candy was exactly like his characters. Steve Martin, on the other hand, was friendly but rather shy. It was a thrill to see these two together on screen and off.
John, Candy and Steve Martin were hilarious apart or together. I went to see this movie when it came to the movie theater in my day. We were all about Steve Martin and John Candy. They were truly the wild and crazy guys. Thanks guys we appreciate all you did.
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
He was excellent in Uncle Buck he had a wonderful small role in Home Alone
One of our favorites too, you've got fine taste! What other types of video would you like to see?
He was the Uncle we all always wanted ❤
I love that movie and John was so good in it. It was hilarious and touched my heart deeply. When Steve Martin goes back to the train station and asked why he was still there it touched my. Then they're carrying that huge trunk was so touching. The ending was so perfect.
I was at a football game between my hometown Hamilton Tiger-Cats and John Candy's Toronto Argonauts. Though he could have sat in the press box out of the reach of the fans, he sat right there among us. And when a security guard tried to tell one eager fan to go away, Candy stopped him and invited the man to come and shake hands with him, and spoke to him for several minutes. No matter how big he was, he never forgot who he was or where he came from. That is my fondest memory of John Candy.
He was definitely big that's what killed him
Beautiful experience
Imagine having a friend that will move in with your family for support when u pass omg ❤ now that is loyalty
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
John Candy was one of my favorite actors because a little of his heart and humanity was in every part he ever played there is a new documentary being produced.
Beautiful words, thank you for your message for John. Made us miss him more 😢
An excellent movie....
Thanks for the background on John & Steve.....they were priceless on & off screen ❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it
“Blue Moon of Kentucky, keep on Shinin’ ”. With the movies and kindness he left behind Candy still does.
I love Steve Martin. I think he is the finest comic actor of his generation and sounds like he is a sound man too. Sad to loose John Candy so soon, may he rest in peace
Everything ive ever read, seen and heard about John Candy confirms to me that it would have been impossible not to have a great time working with him. Steve Martin was truly privileged to have spent time working with him.
I still miss the guy 👍
My sister used to live next to john candy in Newmarket Ontario. Think around his sctv days. She said he was just a normal guy and very friendly. I alway wished i made and effort to say hi to him when i was visiting my sister. Planes trains automobiles always makes me laugh and cry. Uncle buck does the same. Fans still miss you.
This is my Thanksgiving movie. It always makes me feel like I just had an experience putting some things back in perspective and a little sad.
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing! What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
John is a will forever be a true legendary actor.
That movie made me laugh and cry and love. Favorite Holiday movie.❤

One of my all time favorites!!!
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing! What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
I love the drawing at 4:10 with Murray, Martin, Belushi, Chase, Aykroyd & Murphy
The scene of Candy jamming to Ray Charles' is the best especially the moment where he plays the piano on the dash. Martin had to keep his eyes closed because he would've laughed and ruined the take.
That movie is an absolute gem.
We absolutely agree! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. Be safe and enjoy the rest of your evening!
My uncle Ray Timmins looked like Candy and was as funny, and died of a heart attack age 53. Miss them both.
Steve Martin has a nice tribute to John Candy in his book, "Number one walking".
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing! We miss John.
I was about 7-8 when he passed but he seems to have been missed greatly.
Interesting, thanks for sharing! What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
One of my favorite movies! I watched 2 weeks ago, it never gets old. Train station scene always makes drop a tear. That scene is too powerful. I watch this movie every year, sometimes twice a year. Rip Big John Candy 😢

John Candy, a great gentleman. Hilarious actor. We miss him everyday.
A rare GREAT Review for PTA !!! You nailed it!!!
I loved John Candy's voice work in The Rescuers Down Under. Such energy and life, far surpassing any of the other characters. But then, that was John Candy for you.
He was such a genuine guy, I recently saw a clip of him impersonating Orson Wells from the sctv days. F'n gold! He was a gift.
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
Ors N Buggy !!!
Their off-screen friendship, highlighted by Martin's support for Candy's family during a difficult time, adds depth to their on-screen legacy.
John Candy is missed. RIP.
John Candy had a tiny, but hilarious cameo as a cop in the movie Follow That Bird.
Yes!!
Fun stuff, thank you so much for sharing your life story. What is your favorite role of her?
That was the first film I saw in the theater 😂😂
@@patrickc3419 The first movie I saw in theater was E.T. & I was terrified, lol
@@DaddyOfTheSugarVariety
In the cornfield scene right?? 😂 I was, too.
John candy was a comedic genius and a beautiful person 😢❤
I've watched various clips of this movie again and again. The clip that made me watch the most was the last five minutes of the movie: the emotional farewell and the ultimate celebration of a newfound friendship. Epic scene!
He's been gone for 30 years now. I remember the day. It made me sad. Because of all the comedy gold the world would miss out on now. RIP good guy.

I was heartbroken when john passed on he was a comedy legend, only the lonely Is one of my favorite movies It shows john could do comedy and more serious roles, gone but never forgotten Mr. candy.
Us too! We're a big fan of John. May he find peace 😥
Lots of love in the Uk for Steve Martin and the fabulous much missed John Candy . plains trains and automobiles is a Christmas staple.
'Buck Melanoma, Moley Russell's Wart' 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's too bad they didn't get another pairing in another movie (not a sequel P.T.A is perfect as is). They worked so well together. Either could play the straight man and the other the goof. So glad Martin is pairing with Short lately. Love the classic SNL/SCTV pairings.
John Candy a Man and amazing actor and comedian gone way before his time, I miss John even today as he brought me many a good laughs as a child and a young teenager, but I gotta say two of my favourite John Candy movies is Planes Trains and Automobiles and Uncle Buck.
Rest In peace John, we miss you Man, and thank you for the many great years of laughter you brought us all.
John Candy was a comic genius.
Two comedic geniuses, one legendary film. I'm choking up just typing this.
Who knew that wild and crazy Steve would be such an effective straight man
I have to say, if there was one celebrity I could meet and just have lunch, talk about life with for maybe an hour; it would have been John Candy. A brilliant talent and wonderful man. Left us too soon. You are missed. 🙌 💜
every year i watch this film around thanksgiving. it never fails to lift my spirit and i still laugh even though i have probably seen it over 200 hundred times. the seen that gets me the most is the last seen. when neals wife says hi to john candy. the way he looks and he is wearing those silly oversized red gloves and he gives that shy little boy look rubbing the gloves together. it always brings tear to my eyes knowing that he is no longer with us. i think that seen will always remind me of john candy no matter how many times i watch this movie. i think it is because im pretty sure he was the same way in person. sweet and loveable. we all miss you john thanks for the memories
Best movie for both. RIP John Candy ❤
John Candy was a comedic genius and died far too early at 43.

Martin realizes Candy's wife had died is one of the best reveals in movie history.
Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure!
❤❤❤🙏❤️❤️❤️love all the movies John Candy was in 😂😂😂
Two of the probably the best human beings ever been.
Thank you for this video
John Candy gone to soon

A Legend Gone Before His Time
So true! What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
Boy, I sure would love to see all that lost footage! Anyway, we're gonna watch PTA on Thanksgiving Day!
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing! Have fun ♥♥
Other accounts say Steve Martin did some writing for the film but there wasn't much improvisation. I have the screenplay draft with ehich they went into production. "Those aren't pillows" was written, and what they say after jumping out of bed was improvised.
John is an icon my favorite movies are uncle buck.. and the great outdoors..and who is hairy Crum..
One of our favorites too, you've got fine taste! What other types of video would you like to see?
I would love to see the 4 hours version of PT&A
Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is such a great film because it captures Martin and Candy's real personalities
Pretty kool. At the train station b4 parting ways. There is a ad that says "Stay in touch".
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing this info! May John find peace 🙏
I have a friend who was an extra when they filmed near Buffalo. He said he met Candy and was friendly to everyone.
Another Candy movie filmed up here in suburban Buffalo was Canadian Bacon.
True story; My father, a now retired sheriff’s deputy, was asked to be an extra in that movie, turned it down, & to this day is mad at himself for having passed that chance!!
I SEE THIS MOVIE AS ONE OF MY TOP 20 FAVORITE.
Comedy is an underrated art form. Steve Martin’s and John Candy’s performances are superior to many Oscar winner forgettable snoozers.
"Well, climb on up here, Slim!"
*cue "Born To Be Wild"
I *finally* got to see this movie and just LOVED it. The trials Steve Martin's character goes through makes you realize your troubles in trying to enjoy a holiday with family are really little to gripe about. And it has a great, poignant revelation and resolution at the end that is superbly heartwarming. Both Martin and Candy are superb in their performances, which have much more range than you might think before seeing the movie. Still, I think my favorite movie starring John Candy has to be _Uncle Buck._ You can never guess what kind of turn that movie is going to take and how Buck will deal with it. For Martin, I would humbly nominate either _L.A. Story_ or _Roxanne._
Both great!
Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. If we may ask, what other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
So this video isn’t so much about Steve Martin telling us about his thoughts as much as it is you talking and talking and talking and talking…..
I liked all of John Candys films. He was one of a kind. It’s sad when the greats die young.
Beautiful words, thank you for your message for John. We love him too and we miss him 😭
A classic.
I enjoyed this insightful discussion. PT&A is one of my favorite films and this did justice to Candy’s memory. Well done
I didn't know John Candy was dead, and I didn't know that he died at 43 years of age.
Just imagining a world with Candy still in it and all the amazing heart warming work he would of gone on to create is just so desperately sad. A huge loss to the world of film and comedy that is still felt in my opinion.
Great movie and puts life in perspective from a real point John’s view a real person who was a genuine guy, truly authentic.
The realization that I was just a kid (almost a baby playing with Trnsformers) loving these adult themed Hughes movies, crying with a scared Jake in the hospital when complications arose in the delivery room, & during Del’s confessing to being alone & missing his wife & at Neal’s reunion w/ his family, these movies caught my full cartoon loving attention, I didn’t even really recognize “SHAB” as a comedy, I just knew I really liked it, Hughes was the first director that I recognized in name & style/voice
Such nice, good guys both of them!
Uncle Buck after the scene with the Principal, your jacked by the music as he leaves the school. then after he lights his dart he goes the wrong way. classic candy the suttle funny stuff becomes hilarious.
Candy was a great talent. For 49ers fans they'll know that "The Drive" during a super bowl, involved Candy, as Montana went to the huddle and said something like "look over there it's John Candy!"Every mention of him always seems to say that he was a gentle man.
John Candy was great in SCTV. That's where I became a big fan of his.
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
I still miss John Candy. I enjoyed his movies so much. Summer Rental was a hoot.
We miss John too. May he find peace 🙏
John Candy made every comedy he touched better. Lead, supporting or cameo, if John Candy showed up, your film got at least a little funnier.
I got to meet John candy and it was a highlight of my life
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing! How was John personally?
You can tell they had a good connection. It comes across the screen.
We absolutely agree! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. Be safe and enjoy the have a great evening!☺
Planes Trains and Automobiles was film No. 7 on the Humanities Film Forum Must See List. They also published a movie review, that now exists in a chopped down version. Planes.. has more than one released version with alternate scenes included, to shorten the show.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing this info! What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
Planes, trains, and automobiles is to Thanksgiving what ‘It’s a wonderful life’ is to Christmas.
Just watched it an hour ago for Thanksgiving, even have the 4K as a backup. It is a must.
We absolutely agree! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. How was Thanksgivng?🦃
I could totally watch all four hours of the original.
