They sat on a bench between the ocean-floor and sea-kelp displays and surveyed the scene: babies staring from strollers while rolling by, whale noises resonating. Colin Hanks directed a new documentary, “John Candy: I Like Me,” in which Chris appears. In it, John Candy, who died at forty-three, of a heart attack, is remembered with admiration and tenderness by his widow, Rose, his daughter, Jen, and Chris; fellow “S.C.T.V.” luminaries, including Andrea Martin, Catherine O’Hara, and Martin Short; and movie co-stars like Steve Martin, Bill Murray, Macaulay Culkin, and Dan Aykroyd. Candy excelled at playing larger-than-life handfuls who reveal hidden depths—see “Uncle Buck” and “Planes, Trains and Automobiles”—and “Splash” is no exception. “One of the best parts of the doc is when your dad’s talking about that ‘Splash’ scene and breaking down what was happening,” Candy told Hanks. In the scene, the brothers are at the fruit-wholesale company they run together, and Candy interrupts Hanks, who is on a call. “Tom is talking about what my dad was doing in that scene in regards to being inclusive, and breaking this kind of improv with him”—the “yes, and” improv that Candy did at Second City, which Hanks hadn’t done before.journey-inline-newsletterinline-newsletter
