Stuck in the library and told not to move, the group’s increasing acts of disclosure and rebellion show that they are self-aware, temperamental, and, above all else, bored.Ī masterclass in group dynamics, a moment early in the film shows popularity-queen Claire (Molly Ringwald) and athlete Andy (Emilio Estevez) cover for chief-instigator John Bender (Judd Nelson), when their teacher begins questioning him, and then stick up for him when the two begin arguing.
Taking five different teens with different problems, attitudes and cliques, and showing that they are all outcasts together, John Hughes’ classic reminds viewers that it’s okay to feel like a misfit, because everyone else does too. The merchandise is still available on the high street, screengrabs are a permanent fixture on social media, the film is parodied almost in its entirety for the pilot episode of pop culture juggernaut Community – in short, The Breakfast Club has been essential viewing for two decades now, and with good reason. But you probably already knew that, because by now, surely everyone has seen The Breakfast Club. The cast includes Molly Ringwald, Judd Nelson and Emilio Estevez.
