"Chicks cannot hold their smoke... That's what it is." Brian was hilarious 😂
Says who?

@@reginafallangie2867 Kittyboots777 didn't catch it.
I still say this 😁. One of my favorite parts 🥰.
“Rule one don’t get high on your own supply”
Yea, sometimes you have to try. I got a report that a couple guy did not get high from a batch. I smoked 5 bowls to my head, did not get high, bought it all back to return to the supplier. That was the day I closed up shop.
I messed up this one
There is technicalities to that. For example please. Never get high on your own supply...if you sell!"
Unless your rich
@@Professional_Lube_Job wow. At least everyone knows your nit a dealer. Too stupid to be one
I agree. Ally Sheedy's character was such an outsider, by choice, that she would abstain from anything in which the rest of the group chose to indulge. Case in point: remember her casually walking through the hallway when everyone else was running from the teacher? She just didn't give a fuck, and that would apply to the weed, as well.
Excellent point. Most complex character, hands down.
She would do the straight-laced thing, not for the sake of being a square because she’s not… but she would opt out of the activity only if EVERYONE ELSE chose to break the rules.
Yeah..she doesn't conform to any stereotypical genre throughout a majority of the film except for when Claire gives her a makeover...that didn't make any sense for her character imo.
@@spoooook I think everyone’s character developed on that day and that was how hers did. The amount of honesty that came from everyone made her feel comfortable enough with them that she allowed herself to stop playing the outsider, always on the defensive. She allowed herself to let her guard down, be “normal” for once, and join the community.
@@jmeds94 For me personally, it was just disappointing, I loved her previous style and wish they could've included that in her "growth" instead of turning into another preppy girl.
@@spoooook Well it’s not like she “became” a prep. I would be very surprised if she showed up to school on Monday wearing anything but her classic black. But maybe she sees the preppy girls in a slightly less negative/nihilistic viewpoint now.
Ally's character didn't need pot. She was already out of it.
For all we know, she could have just been stealing some from Bender’s locker.
😂😂
You prove that, even when this movie came out, there are always those that just mindlessly consume the media without getting the point
You didnt get her character at all
She wasn't out of it...she was traumatized and needed genuine human contact
It's an interesting take on Bender needing to take control. I've watched this movie a dozen times and never put that perspective together.
I don't think its about control. I think its about acceptance and that green is what he felt his acceptance into groups was at the time. Yet he himself did not need it to accept himself.
Or did Bender not want to hurt his profits by smoking his own pot?
I feel like it was the shared experience that brought them together.. got them talking, got them seeing eachother as friends.
This is what happens when you spill paint in the garage! 🚬
I never noticed that he didnt partake. Why not just have a puff? Even if he did want to control others
This movie was so simple but yet so impactful. One of my all time favorites.
I remember my high school teacher putting on The Breakfast Club for us to watch randomly.
I was born a literal decade later when it came out and yet, it’s remained my favorite 80s film.
I figured it was more of a tool for everyone else to open up. He didn’t need it but the rest of the group did.
Yeah, that’s pretty much exactly how I saw it as well…like they hit a wall and this is how they’d break through. Also, to put it in more basic, ‘in-universe’ terms…John was probably already stoned, so he didn’t need more, and if he did partake you wouldn’t really notice, lol. I mean, I used to smoke before school, then leave on my lunch break to smoke again and come back…and I wasn’t any kind of ‘badass’ cool-guy like Bender; I was a dork with almost all straight-A’s-except for math. And I would have definitely partaken before a day’s worth of detention.
I assumed he was just already high from before and didn't toke up a second time. Given my own personal history of toking before school, it would usually last for hours. The likelihood that he went into saturday detention sober is just near 0%. That's the kind of annoying activity you absolutely pre-toke for.
And at least personally, I never enjoyed being super stoned. I liked having a solid buzz that you could ride for hours.
Also, when I got high for the first time, the guy who let me have some of his weed, didn't smoke any during that moment. I always took it to be that he was just wanting to monitor and make sure things didn't get weird for me. I always assumed it was the same for him. He wasn't trying to "control" them, he was just trying to get them to loosen up, and he just didn't feel like getting (more) high at that moment.
I'm 78 years old. When ever I can't find anything I want to watch, after I've done my chores, I'll hunt this movie down grab my wine and enjoy the show. I have probably watched it a dozen times over the years. I like the storyline, the characters and the actors that played the parts.They were perfect for the roles. It is a simple story about teenage growing pains that all teens, or most, have gone through since the beginning of time. It just happens to be set in the 80s. Splendor In The Grass is another teen movie about teen growing pains just set in a different time.Try Rebel Without A Cause too.The list goes on and on. But, for some reason I never tire of watching this one. Go
figure....? 😊
Me too!!!!!
Splendor in the grass now that's a movie I haven't watched in years such a good film and excellent suggestion, same heartstrings
John Hugh's movie soundtracks were excellent, by & large.
Coming of age films are the best. Those short formative teen years can never be replicated. I wish you good health, I know getting old is difficult. Enjoy your wine and the freedom to live without judgement! My father is 75 and we’ve grown close now that I’m nearly 50….. so much time wasted having misunderstood one another!!
Of course my own children won’t believe me because they’re busy grappling with teen angst…. Or apathy…. Which seems far more dangerous.
Funny. Just today I found out he graduated in the bottom 10 of his HS. He pushed me SO hard on grades, I just assumed he did well himself. Here he was trying to save me from the

Thank you for your well wishes. Sometimes getting older gets in our way but, so far my husband (81) and I are still able to keep up with the yard work, long walks, and most fun of all riding our Harley with our three children. We just take life day by day and will live like we're young. I truly wish You, your Dad and your Children the very best life has to offer. Stay safe and well, and just for luck, HAPPY SAINT PATRICK'S DAY 🍀💚‼️ "May the road rise to meet you, may the wind always be at your back, may the sun shine warm upon your face..."

BREAKFAST CLUB
to this day, everyone who saw this movie in the theater, watched it on video, or on TV...still remember how iconic this movie was!!
Eehhhhhh😐
It’s a 80’s grind em out popcorn flick & this one was part of the 16 candles on repeat wave, now Red Dawn? THATS iconic
💯%
That must've been so long ago but quite interesting!!
God bless in Jesus name Amen.
I grew up in the Chicago suburbs. Not sure if that's why BC resonated so much to me, but even as a rather simplistic flick for kids it still is one of my favorites.
Molly lookin great for almost 40 years later.
She did get fat tho like John said 😂
She must have had some work done. If someone had told me that was her, I would have thought they were lying.
@@ComPrt3 the hair parted on the other side is a real mind fuck and makes her unrecognisable she grew into her mouth and teeth, but I think the biggest thing is the brows, they would have survived the bushy 80s and plucked them all out during the 90s and 00s, and the makeup artist has filled them in too much so they look blocky. her nick is thicker too, teenage anorexia was a big problem for her. and now id say she looks .....healthy
no
She lost her prettiness. Ally has become stunning with age.
Molly still looks amazing at 56.
We 80/90s kids can appreciate this movie so much because it was our lives in those days.. things changed.. evolved so much after those decades.. i blinked and suddenly went from school age to my 40's.
Oh my God that is so true. It kinda really sucks lol
@@jaimegreene9557 That about sums it up! Lolol 🤪
Fr dude same here born in 83 we’re the last of the Mohicans now to generations are ridiculous
I felt the statement in my bad hip....😢😂
And the world is spiraling down the drain.
I have this movie along with 16 candles and all of the other movies from this era because I grew up with Molly Ringwald being the it girl. She maintained her beauty and level of character throughout the years. It's good to see these kinds of clips.
The fact that Molly is now more embarrassed over this movie than anything else she has done is why idgaf what she says now. That movie is as classic to those who were teenagers then and still becomes an instant favorite to teenagers that watch it now. John Hughes was a gift.
I think it is sixteen candles she is embarrassed about
@@tomandgerit.2157 that doesn’t make it any better…also timeless. And the 2nd biggest reason anyone even knows who she is.
I agree!
I went to a Midwestern suburban school and this movie,in a nutshell,shows what my teen years were like during 85 and 86 .This movie is s prime example of the class and tribe differencees i experienced in my little corner of the world . Every character in the movie went to my school and we all fell into one of those tribes. It explained who we were without boring you down with all the fine details or nuances going on to be one of the best generations, Gen X. Anytime the title song by Simple Minds plays it immediately transports me back to this time. I skipped school with my friend on the opening day. We had to see it opening day and the first showing was at noon so we skipped class and jumped in her MG black convertable and drove to the city. At the time it was just fun we were 17 little did i know the true impact it would have on me to this day. For me it's nostalgic. Thank you letting me share
One of my fav movies of all time! They just do t make ‘em like they used to…
Great movie!!!!! All John Hughes movies are GREAT.❤️💙🇺🇲
Baby’s Day Out was pretty bad
Especially Some Kind Of Wonderful!
My perfect ending for The Breakfast Club was that they all end up in the middle class, struggling but happy.
Claire is a slightly overweight mom with three kids, Bender is a stay at home dad with one kid who's a bit of a problem child, Andrew owns his own tree trimming business, Brian is a veterinarian, Allison is fashion designer.
Everything comes full circle and they are happy with the lives they live now because of that one day they spent together and broke down those walls.
It's the only way to realistically justify the feeling of triumph at the end of the film.
I love that idea!
Statistically, 1 would have died in the Gulf / Iraq Wars ( The Jock or the Rebel?), and another 2 would have died from Fentanyl / Oxycotin / prescription overdose (any of them - The Jock, The Rebel, The Nerd, The Princess or The Outcast - which ones dies?) ...
(could be any of them )
For the remaining 3 at least one would be one of the millions of "excess deaths" from the "mysterious" rise in heart attacks and other heart / circulatory system complications post 2019-2021 USA and "propagandized" pharmaceutical push...
Which leaves one... To (most likely) die slowly of - your choice of type - cancer. (Thanks to the plethora of chemicals in food, air and water...)
Sorry - just keepin' it real...!
I took me 2 rounds till I realized Ally was talking about John Hughes and not about John Bender.
Lol
As an 8 year old Aussie girl, I watched this EVERY WEEKEND. My sister older was obsessed with Emilio Estevez so had it taped on VHS.
The summer before each of my kids entered high school, I watched this movie with them. It was a great way to naturally initiate conversations about high school and any worries they had, about sometimes feeling like an outsider, and that deep inside, we all feel insecure sometimes, "popular" or not. They're grown now, but they all love "The Breakfast Club" as much as I do. ❤
REST IN PEACE JOHN HUGHES GOD I SURE LOVED HIS MOVIES AND STILL DO
Oh he died I’m so sorry to hear that what happened?
Can’t recall what he had look it up it was in the news when he passed away
He had a heart attack
@@aaronkitchens4151 Oh wow I didn’t know that
Wow he passed in 09 so did the principal as well
Molly still looks amazing 🤩😻
Molly and Ally look great but I wouldn’t have recognized Molly from her voice-it got so deep!
Too much pot smoke.
@@whamsie4022 Is that it? She has been living in France for years and we know how they still feel about their smoking. Molly’s definitely had some work done. It’s not unusual that s mature woman her voice would be deeper than it was when she was 16… I always liked her sense of style and thought she was cute in a unique way but her voice was not one of her attractive features to me. She sounds more attractive now, so maybe she’s been working with a voice coach to lower the timbre… With her without the ganja.
@@marywenzel3199 are you even speaking english?😂
Damn molly aged well!
She’s still looks fantastic
not really. Her plastic surgery has made her unrecognizable as molly. :)
I Crushed so hard on Ally Sheedy in the 80s.. my God what a beautiful woman!
She almost hasn’t aged
It's one of the best movies of the 80s.
Its the best movie of the 80s.
@johndean4727 I was 15 when it came out. Remember sixteen candles? "No more yankie my wankie, the Donger tired!" 😆 classics.
This was such a great movie, Micheal, Molly, Emilio, Ally, Judd all made this movie the quintessential 80s movie about teen angst.
This movie was real life. We all could comprehend it on some level. The characters were each one of us.
I could watch this movie again and again and I have.❤️🥳
Thank you Breakfast Club❤❤
Thank you John Hughs
Brian reminds me so much of my younger brother, he even looks kinda like him. When he cries while telling his story, I sob every time and I just desperately want to hug him.
I love that Ali felt her character wouldn’t! I never smoked until I graduated. It was offered to me, I just never felt like trying it out until after high school. So yay for having all types of teens in the movie.
I watched The Breakfast Club.
Then I watched Euphoria.
Dang, my generation f up badly
The ones that watched breakfast club raised the ones that watched euphoria, what did they do to their kids?
that’s the dumbest comparison i have ever heard
@@mr.tomatohead3709true 😂
@@mr.tomatohead3709thats actually the realest shit I read on youtube comments
@@mr.tomatohead3709y’all be capping. Bad shit happened back in the day just like it does in euphoria 🙄
(Meant for original commenter 😵💫)
As someone on the spectrum myself, Ally is right. Allison doesn’t seem like the kind of person to smoke weed.
Is Allison on the spectrum?
@@jmeds94 It’s not official canon, but that’s because neither Asperger’s nor Autism were in the DSM at the time.
Is this why it only makes me extremely depressed or more anxious??
@@proverbialloafPerhaps, but not necessarily -- I've seen reactions go both ways. I know people on the spectrum who use THC to ease their social anxiety and tamp down their super-sensitivities; I know other NDs who have the same reaction as you.
Likewise, among NT/allistic people, I've seen both reactions to THC, so I don't think it's as cut & dried as that.
Anyway hope you have a great week.😊
@@dianeatpeace337 Thank you for such a helpful reply! You sound lovely. :-)
You see us as you want to see us: in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain, and an athlete, and a basket case, a princess, and a criminal. Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, the Breakfast Club.
Interesting choice to have Allison not smoke, it certainly seemed realistic to not have everyone smoke tho, because not everyone does. It just adds a layer of depth to the construction of her character. She’s so far removed from her peers, she doesn’t even get high. More introverted, obviously, she probably spends a lot of idle time living out fantasies. Participating in drugs would give her a bridge to socializing with other students, challenging her status as the weirdo outsider. So ultimately I think it was a great decision.
Molly was the cutest girl of the 80's. 😍😍😍
I love Molly Ringwald
Wow Molly still looks good.
I was in high school when this film came out. It's a great film.
OMG You are so gorgeous, Molly
Molly, you have aged so well! Keep it up.
How is it that Molly Ringwald is still hot 🔥? She a vampire? Lol
One of the best movies ever made. I spent a whole summer analyzing everything in that movie, memorizing the whole thing. Bender would have had me with that hair, dress, and attitude---that hair flip❤
yes, he was so hot - and then look how he turned out later on, playing parts with little round glasses and looking nerdy, haha!
One of my favorite movies of all time
Molly looks great still. Wow !!!
This movie is one of my top 5 favorites - so many good lines, makes you laugh and cry, makes you wonder about what happened on Monday... 🥰😉
It was all the same again on monday
Wow, same hair from 40 years ago
One of my all time faves❤❤❤ felt cliche, yet natural in the 80s/90s. I lived this dynamic 😊😊😊
I love this movie. Ally Sheedy was my favorite character. Just weird!
Jesus man, so crazy to see these mega stars all these years later. Probably one of my favorite movies all time
This movie for some reason just really gets me emotional. Probably because I was about that age at that time and it's really accurate. The cliques in high school were spot on.
Ladies still stunning after all these years. Classic movie. Great insight. Glad they made those choices to the scene
Holy smokes! She looks great!
Or no smokes, as the case may be!
I love Molly so much. My top 3 fav movie is 16 candles. Greatest 80s movie ever. I love all her movies.
One of my favourite movies to this day. "Infected" my children with it too. 😂
This is one of the best movies ever and one of the most quoted.
that explains why it felt so fucking real and even looking back at it still feels like kids from the 80s just vibin together
No one gonna talk about how fantastic these two look after all these years?
They both look amazing for their 50s.
She's still very good-looking and I think she's in her sixties now. Doesn't look like she did a lot of work like botox.. Good for her.
She's not in her 60's. Maybe somewhere between 55 and 57.
Brilliant peoples. This movie has so many laughs in it,,it’s gut busting laughs all day long, with the heroes of my childhood.
Anthony Michael Hall is a miracle. He is basically a standup comedy genius at age 2, like as good as Rodney Dangerfield only at fertilization point.😂
The physical comedy of this movie is astounding fun, all the cast is fantastic. Thanks man, gosh thanks. And good job! ❤️🔒🔐
I simply adore Molly Ringwald as an actress. She never disappoints, ever. I've seen her in the odd "not so good movie," but she always carries herself beautifully. And, 40 YEARS on, what a stunner!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
John Hughes made great movies.
That’s a real throw back. Haven’t heard it called ‘pot’ in decades now.
They are both still cuties. I wish I saw them in more things these days. They were all good actors. I know they still work I just haven't seen them in much lately
molly ringwald has not aged, wow
“De chick cannot hold de smoke…dats what eet eauz!”
Having John not smoke would have made that scene much better
Molly and Ally .. literally staples in my childhood 🥰🥰
Great , great movie.
Wish movies , .... And America was good like this .
Yep
The good days.
I think bender didn’t smoke not to control people but to prove that he is more than that and he isn’t what everyone thinks he is.
A true classic. One of my favorites!
The breakfast club, 16 candles and Ferris Bueller's day off are all filmed at the same high school so they all technically take place in the same Cinematic universe.
You're gonna give back what you stole too
Incredible film. I'm the age of the actors so first saw it as a teenager. When I watched it again as an adult...from such a different perspective...the film became very moving and emotional to watch. Love it so much.
I am now 48 years old and this is still one of the best movies
One of my two favorite classic movies. I must have seen it eight times 10 times
Right after she said, “Everybody loves me so much”, I immediately said, “Poor baby…!” LOVE this movie. ♥️♥️♥️
Molly was cute, but I had a massive crush on Ally Sheedy.❤
Yeah she was pretty too until the makeover point
Me too
@@proverbialloaf Cool
watching this movie while stoned is the best, so funny and it gets so deep and really shows what high school is like
I had a major celebrity crush on Ally Sheedy at the time this came out. I was a young soldier in California, and used to dream about going to Hollywood and running into Ally. I was very much anti-drug, and I very much liked that her character was her own person without the need. But I could not imagine a famous beautiful movie star falling for a lowly soldier.
I was big anti drug too. I really thought starting any of that would ruin my future. Never did drugs to today.
Molly Ringwald has gone on to do wonderful things. Like translations of books. And written books. In french.. not just beautiful and smart
The scream breaking the window really takes me out of this movie but as a 80s kid i still love it. Especially the scene where they all si why they are there.
I was an 80's Jock and this movie taught me to go for the crazy chick which did NOT work out very well!! Thanks Mr Hughes 😮
I actually liked the movie it showed that u can come from different walks of life but have something in common or meet in the middle u have the jock the criminal brain and the wierdo and the popular chick
"A movie about a bunch of dorks who actually show up for detention." -Jay
Thank you Molly for making my teen years better
A simple, quirky film that became a right of passage for kids in the 80's which perfectly captured the whole essense of culture at that time. It ended up really striking a chord with thousands of people
She was my favorite actress in that movie. My God she’s so beautiful.
“Does Barry Manilow know you raid his wardrobe?”
Like many folks who've already posted, I, too, am a part of the high school graduating Class of 1985. I hope there's a 40-year reunion being planned for the cast. I'm positive that event would be a huge draw for the nostalgic 50+ crowd, like myself. I had a former roommate who attended the high school where the movie was shot. Do not watch the movie with him...Will not shut up...Like he was John Hughes for my sake...He fancied himself a thespian, that he even had some kind of relationship or something with the Cusack family, John 'n Joan...Anyway, I digress, this movie, like another one of my ATF '80s flicks, The Last American Virgin, opened me up to music that I otherwise might not have had the opportunity to experience. Much like my former roommate fancied himself a thespian, I fancy myself a drummer, and hearing Simple Minds' iconic theme song to this iconic movie made me learn how to play "Don't You Forget About Me". Pure, Classic, Forever '80s Jam. See y'all at the reunion!
I was only 10 when this came out. Was and still is one of my favorite movies.
I love this movie. I believe that everybody could relate to somebody in there or know somebody similar. The writer John Hughes did the best movies. ❤
When movies were really good. The good old days
Beautiful Molly!! Stay away from the plastic surgery!!!
But they also have said them and the rest of the cast was kept away from Bender to keep that nervous edgy feeling. They wanted the rest of the cast to really be scared of him lol
"when you grow up, you're heart dies". I disagree, when you grow up, you're heart grows.
Great Song! Great Movie! Great Acting! Great Story! 1985 Complete Perfection
