About the film

Uncle Buck is a 1989 American comedy film written and directed by John Hughes. Starring John Candy and Amy Madigan, the film follows Buck (Candy), an irresponsible bachelor who is unexpectedly called upon to care for his brother's three children after a family emergency. Filmed primarily in and around Chicago, Uncle Buck was the first film Hughes wrote, directed, and produced under his multi-picture agreement with Universal Pictures. Much of the production was based at the vacant New Trier High School in Northfield, Illinois, where several of the film's interior sets were constructed. Released by Universal Pictures on August 16, 1989, the film opened at number one at the North American box office, remaining there for four consecutive weeks, and ultimately grossed $79.2 million worldwide.

How to watch it together from different places

Each of you opens Uncle Buck on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
