John Candy: "I Like Me" (2025)

I watched this documentary on the late John Candy recently. It brought back to me how much I always liked him, and how much I’ve missed him onscreen.

While some other comedians’ humor is solely about being fat, Candy was a clever, funny comedian who just happened to be fat. He had so much personal dignity; was loved and respected as a good man.

He wasn’t only funny, he was so likeable.
Lost him way too soon.

Apparently his dialogue in Home Alone was improvised. What an amazing comedy talent, taken too soon.

I never realized he passed so young

bijouxbroussard · F

@OogieBoogie Yes. I tend to forget that, too. His father died at age 35 (when Candy was 5), also from a heart attack.
