54 Who played Ferris girlfriend, Sloane?
Answer: Mia Sara

" Ferris, please. You've gone too far. We're going to get busted." - Sloane

She was perhaps the thinnest character in the movie, as she had little scope to shine. Ostensibly, she was Ferris' girlfriend - there was a scene where Ferris talks of marrying her, but they only share a deep kiss when Ferris was disguised as Sloane's father! There is not much interaction between them and then there is this scene where Ferris was cutting through neighbours' yards, trying to beat his parents home, yet he stopped to introduce himself to sunbaking girls - a sleazy move.
Sloane had a couple of moments in the film: When she pseudo-flirted with Ferris' dad in an adjoining stationary cab and also when Cameron thinks Ferris had ditched them at the Parade. Sloan calmed him down indicating she was a solid friend.

Sloane's role appeared to be the middle ground between the extreme guile of Ferris and the self-deprecation of Cameron. She was not above skipping school - she spins a tale about her grandmother dying, but she was otherwise nice throughout the movie.

Perhaps, tellingly, Molly Ringwald, one of Hughes' favourites, wanted the role of Sloane but Hughes refused, saying the role was too small for her.

Sloane was played confidently and competently by Mia Sara, who had a solid resume for someone who was not in the spotlight much. She was married to Jason Connery in 1996. The couple divorced in 2002 after having a son in 1996. She had a daughter in 2005 with puppeteer Brian Henson. They married in 2005. She also has a pilot's license.
55 Who played Ed Rooney?
Answer: Jeffrey Jones

Jeffrey Jones has also been in other movies, such as "Beetlejuice" and "Amadeus". Jeffery Jones has had his share of legal troubles.
56 What piece of classical music did Ferris program into his synthesizer with coughing sounds as the various 'notes'?
Answer: The Blue Danube Waltz

La-la-la-la-la. (hack-hack, hack-hack) La-la-la-la-la (hack-hack, hack-hack) ...
Actually, Ferris was much better with the synth than the clarinet.

Ferris got a lot of mileage out of his synthesizer AND that Christmas present that disappointed him so much (his computer). Why he programmed the coughs, sneezes, wheezes, and other disgusting human noises, he didn't say. Perhaps he was anticipating needing them as sound effects for an upcoming skip day; perhaps it was just because he was a teenaged male.
57 Jeanie got a car for her birthday. What did Ferris get for his?
Answer: computer

He whines about it during the whole movie.

64 What was Ferris' girlfriend's first name?
Answer: Sloane

65 What was the name of Ferris' father in the movie?
Answer: Tom

Tom Bueller was Ferris Bueller's father in the movie. While Tom does not play a significant role in the plot, his character is important in that he represents the values of the generation before Ferris and his friends. Tom is portrayed as a rigid and stern parent who is more interested in his job and career than spending time with his family. This is in contrast to Ferris, who is carefree and enjoys life to the fullest. Ferris's rebellious nature can be seen as a reaction to his father's sternness and his desire to break away from his father's life plan for him. Tom's character helps to create the tension that drives the plot of Ferris Bueller's Day Off, as Ferris tries to live life on his own terms and enjoy his last days of high school before venturing into the unknown world of adulthood.
66 What type of hairstyle did Ferris give himself in the shower?

67 In his telephone conversation with students in the hall during passing period, which of his organs did Ferris Bueller say may need to be transplanted?
Answer: His kidney

These telephone conversations gave birth to the "Save Ferris!" movement that swept the entire suburban Chicago community, evidenced by, for example, the same phrase written on the local water tower, multitudes of flowers and plants delivered to the Bueller residence -- including one from the English department, a "singing nurse" telegram, and at least one student who collected money to help pay for the transplant.

Matthew Broderick was nominated for a Golden Globe (Best Performance by an Actor in a Comedy or Musical) for his turn as Ferris Bueller, but he didn't win. Robin Williams took home the statue for his work as Adrian Cronauer in "Good Morning, Vietnam".
