This was back when Matthew Broderick...
....was a scrappy rascal.
Michael J. Fox had the career Matthew should have had. But Matthew ran out of scrappy rascal roles/options.

Fox's face remained almost the same in his 20's-30's.
Brodrick lost some of his babyface. His face changed in his mid/late twenty's which changed his roles.
His future roles were hurt because Ferris was TOO memorable.
But he grew up to be a tall, strapping lad.
shareIIRC, the Family Ties wanted Broderick for Alex P. Keaton but he didn't want to do TV, so they kept looking and settled on Fox.
shareHe was vocal about this in the late 80s that he only accepted parts for money and that he didn’t enjoy making movies.
shareHe killed someone via DUI in 1987. That couldn’t have helped his career. There was also backlash from his movie Project X that said animals were hurt during the making of it.
Jennifer Grey says the DUI death was one of her top 3 traumas in her life. Hard to imagine how it’s not number one.

matthew was not DUI when he have terrible crash. he was sober. he is not scumbags.
matthew was on vacation in his ancestry homeland of Ireland but problem is they drive on other side of road over their and he accidently veer into wrong lanes. it was terrible accident.
if he was DUI he would have done some time and would not be forgivens by so many.
My bad you are correct. Jennifer Grey confirmed drinking was not involved.

yes actors do not recover from killing mother and daughter while drunk
matthew was allow to come back to film because people love ferris and he seem like nice man and he was not drunk when he kill people
i think if people know he was drunk and kill peoples then his career go down shits
I like Matthew Broderick much, MUCH more in this than that insipid teen movie Ferris Bueller.
