John Candy lived with a life is short cloud over his head. So he over indulged in certain things but it never took away from how funny and talented he was,how if he had success he wanted to share it with others. He always looked out for other people. Family was extremely important to him but he also wanted a career just as much. I had forgotten about his dramatic moment in the movie Splash that role and other roles was proof that he was heading to more dramatic roles. The main thing that hit me and the feeling that you get from listening to numerous people talk about him is that he is greatly missed.
Enjoyed the Second City / SCTV content with his former castmates ... the discussion about health / anxiety throughout his lifetime ... and the segment with Macaulay Culkin (he noted Candy checked in with him to make sure he was good; Candy was side-eyeing his dad when he was on set during the filming of Uncle Buck. Culkin had the piece of shit dad who was ripping off his kids financially). Culkin noting he was looking forward to reconnecting with Candy in his teens, but never got the opportunity (Uncle Buck was released in 1989 when Culkin was 8yo, and Candy died in 1994).
