Ferris Bueller's Day Off

Ferris Bueller's Day Off was and still is every high school students dream scripted up into a Hollywood film. High school senior Ferris Bueller decided to take the day off with his best friend Cameron and girlfriend Sloane and spend the day in downtown Chicago. Throughout the movie Ferris manages to dodge his school principal Mr. Rooney, his spiteful sister Jeanie and his clueless parents. Before Bueller put his plan in full affect he had to convince his easily stressed best friend Cameron. 


"He'll keep calling me, he'll keep calling me until I come over. He'll make me feel guilty. This is uh... This is ridiculous, ok I'll go, I'll go, I'll go, I'll go, I'll go. What - I'LL GO. S***." 

- Cameron


Cameron's use of repetition shows how he was constantly going back and fourth with himself. For every knew thought he continues to repeat himself before he finally agrees to go with Ferris's plan. Towards the end of the quote when he repeatedly says "I'll go" he sets up a serious tone to let himself and Ferris know that he's actually going to go through with his plan to bunk school. I love Cameron's character because throughout the whole movie he's easily stressed and acts like a stick in the mud; until he realizes that its okay to live a little as his friend would say.
