On March 4, 1994 we lost John Candy. It was way too soon and I am still not completely over it. Still, I have been able to watch his movies, repeatedly, because he is one of my main sources of comfort.

When I was young, my mom would rent “The Great Outdoors” VHS repeatedly. So much so that after a 20-something years gap, I still remembered the lines.

I could never explain this feeling and I thought I was kind of special, but it turns out, it’s a pretty general mood:
“[Watching Nostalgic Stuff] gives you energy to cope with what is going on now and move forward.” according to the experts from this article.
Well, I guess that explains a lot.
While searching for my long lost mental health in the middle of this endless pandemic, here are the John Candy movies I watched this week:



Yes, I actually do feel a little better. So, it works!
Fun fac: Macaulay Culkin, was able to interview Candy’s daughter on his podcast here. And that’s how I know Candy was the best.
Where to watch? AmazonPrime.
Talk to you tomorrow,
