Chicago Now brought our attention to the listing for the $2.3 million pad which is in Chicago suburb Highland Park. Aside from being a landmark, the house has four bedrooms, four baths and four additional rooms totaling 5,300 square feet.

Someone needs to tell the listing agent that a picture of a Ferarri slamming through the house's back window might at least get some potential buyers to check the place out. However, based on the design aesthetic, it appears that—like Ferris Bueller costar Jennifer Grey—the last time it had some work was in the '80s.

Matthew Broderick seemed to be disappointed by the poster for his new film, Finding Amanda, at the Tribeca Film Festival. At first, Broderick asked if he had to pose in front of it, then start to wonder why his picture was so far in the background and seemingly out of focus. The film's publicist shrugged his shoulders and said, "Legs sell movies these days." Broderick sighed, then brought up the poster for Ferris Bueller's Day Off. "No sexy girls in that poster. Just my good old face and look at it, that thing is a classic. Probably in dorm rooms everywhere. This one, maybe it'll go up in the room of the creepy guy from the video store and that's about it."
