Why is John Hughes doing the J.D. Salinger Shtick? Still feeling Guilty over Dutch and Curly Sue? All is forgiven!
Thanks to the prolific Judd Apatow, the reclusive John Hughes has made an under-the-radar return to the movie business. Sort of. Apatow’s latest comedy “Drillbit Taylor” — about high school bullies getting their comeuppance — is based on a treatment Hughes wrote years ago for Paramount; he never turned it into a script. Hughes doesn’t give interviews, has no publicist and lives in Wisconsin. His only Los Angeles-based rep is attorney Jake Bloom, who also doesn’t give interviews.
