John Candy

This image tenderly ages John Candy, his smile still as warm and inviting as a hearth in winter. His comedic genius shone in every role, from the bumbling yet lovable uncle in “Uncle Buck” to the endearing shower curtain ring salesman in “Planes, Trains & Automobiles.”

His untimely departure on March 4, 1994, from a heart attack, left a void in the comedy world at the age of just 43. In this digital creation, we see a John seasoned by years he should have had, still radiating the joy and humanity that made him much more than just a funny man on screen.
