    But or Rent - The Breakfast Club - • The Breakfast Club
    Five high school students from different walks of life endure a Saturday detention under a power-hungry principal (Paul Gleason). The disparate group includes rebel John (Judd Nelson), princess Claire (Molly Ringwald), outcast Allison (Ally Sheedy), brainy Brian (Anthony Michael Hall) and Andrew (Emilio Estevez), the jock. Each has a chance to tell his or her story, making the others see them a little differently -- and when the day ends, they question whether school will ever be the same.

    I’ve watched this movie several times and I finally realized that Bender was the only kid who did not have any food during the lunch scene. He’d rather spend every weekend at school than his abusive home. I also think the Janitor found the gun in Bryan’s locker. That’s why he’s so friendly with him. I always notice new things when I watch this movie. It really was a fantastic movie.

    I like high school, I was never really in a specific group, I got along with everyone, it didn't matter if you were popular or not, i went to a ton of parties with the popular crowd and also hung out with the loners and just went to the mall, i came from a catholic elementary school and those kids were not very nice and if you werent popular they wouldnt be your friend or accept you, couldn't wait to go to a public high school. I was just an average student i quit sports in 10th grade and only did ski club my senior yr. This movie has always been one of my favorites, Emilio Estevez's character when he talks about what he did to get detention really makes me cry, very deep conversations they had at the end. John Hughes films to me will always stand the test of time

    In my head canon Bender ends up a US Senator. Another 80s high school movie to check out is Lean on Me with Morgan Freeman as the principal. High school was rough for me, I wasn't diagnosed with ADHD and learning disabilities until after university and I was 46 when finally diagnosed with Autism - neurodivergent people are hopefully treated much better now than the 80s-90s. There are references to Breakfast Club in Not Another Teen Movie, including 2 cameos

      @o.b.7217 It's pretty obvious that with the way he speaks to Bender, he knows. Plus, Benders behaviour and the fact he could have possibly had injuries on him over the years (like the cigarette burns) says enough.
      Teachers are smart enough to notice those signs, even taught to notice them. This teacher chose to ignore the signs and even indulge in the abuse and power Benders dad had over Bender throughout the movie so he could threaten and have power over Bender because his ego was so low and Bender tested his authority (like alot of kids do anyways).

      Bender is wearing a long sleeved shirt, and I really don't see him sporting t shirts. Doesn't fit the rebel image, he wants to convey. That coat that he wears? I'd bet any amount, that he wears that all year long.
      Teachers are probably among the last persons on Earth, to whom he would open up with his problems.
      I think, you're simply looking for ways to blame the teacher.
      But the talk between him and the janitor reveals that he's not a bad guy.
      Also the fact, that he doesn't go back into the room, when Bender yells after him.
      He's not the students' enemy in general and not Bender's enemy in particular.

      Anyone can clearly see that Benders 'attention seeking' and aggressive behaviour stems from somewhere.
      And like I said, teachers are trained to help kids and notice signs that something bad is going on.
      The teacher pulled Bender into that closet and threatened him, saying that no one would believe him if the teacher did beat him up (just like his father) because he was a low life.
      The teacher and the janitors whole conversation was the teacher trying to make himself seem like a victim, and even the janitor called him out on his bullshit.
      This whole comment of yours feels victim blaming.

    I've always thought this movie should be shown to Freshman at the end of that year so they can say what "clique" they think they're in. Then do it again at the end of their Senior year and see if anything has changed. It would interesting what their perspective is because I think this movie still stands. I was born in 1985 but all my boys are teenagers now (well my oldest will be 21 soon and my other two are 17 and 14) and I've had them all watch this movie (it's one of my youngest son's favorites along with "The Lost Boys") I think it's important to understand perception and reality are different and you never know what might really be going on in someone's life.

    I was in high school in 85. These cliques did exist but but it was not as pervasive as you might think. Most of us were just there trying to cope and make it through to graduation. Of course there were catergories like Motorheads, Potheads, Metalheads, etc. We had our close friends and acquaintances but most of us did were not part of cliques. Sure there were "social clubs" but they were highly specialized. Like Debate or Chess etc. Actually the closest thing to true cliques we had were just tight groups of friends that hung out together. Make no mistake, the 70s and 80s were a great time to grow up. Gen X and Proud baby!

    • @LA_HA

      I had a lot of discussions with my parents and older siblings and family friends about growing up in this era (along with the surrounding eras) and the consensus was that most people were very sex adverse, though a lot of people did have sex and probably most lied about it.
      According to them, this was right after the eras of free love (60s), women's lib (70s), and Civil Rights which included Gay Rights.
      That was followed by the AIDS epidemic and with it being a mystery for so long, and then jumping so quickly from the gay community to the hetero community made young people extremely afraid to have sex.
      So much so, Gen X was frequently compared to their grandparents' generation in terms of being focused on innocence and dating far more than being obsessed with what we would now call "hook up" culture.
      Being very sexually active, I was told, just to have sex was out. Having relationships and forgoing sex to avoid STDs and AIDS was where a large portion of young Xers were at this time.
      If you look at a lot of the fashion at that time, especially in California where my family is from, the styles were very pretty, clean, pastel, floral, lacy, and layered with sweaters, skirts with tights or short, etc.
      That's not to say no one was having sex. They were just saying the overall attitude was in this vein.

I got bullied too. In elementary, I got into 5 fights defending myself against bullies. In 8th grade, I had 2 different girls call me out as a lesbian in 2 separate classes. One was in Woodshop class which boys made up about 80% of the class. The other was Math class. In high school during Sophomore year, I got bullied by another girl because of me being of Mexican descent. She kept it up for 2 months until we got into an actual fist fight. It was pretty much a draw. That one ended weirdly because I had gained her respect. Where I went to school we only had PE Freshman & Sophomore years. Both those years, boys taunted me by calling me "Bubba". This was a several years before FORREST GUMP. My Senior year, I wanted to end my life too. If it wasn't for my best friend, I probably would have. I guess what I'm trying to say is you are not alone.

    This is one of my favorite John Hughes films. My top 3 are SOME KIND OF WONDERFUL, SIXTEEN CANDLES & THE BREAKFAST CLUB.. When THE BREAKFAST CLUB came out, I was in junior high.
    I went to high school from 1986-1990. There were cliques in high school, but I didn't belong to any of them. I was a social butterfly. I was aquainted w/@least 1 person from each group. My closest friends were kind of misfits that didn't really belong to any cliques. Although, my 1st 2 yrs of high school, I was a band geek. For some reason, I also liked making friends w/the foreign exchange students. I was friendly w/teens from Sweden, Denmark, England, Spain, Germany & Brazil.
    I saw one of the comments about even junior high kids were sexually active in the 1980s. That person was not wrong. I knew 2 girls who were. I wasn't. I was a virgin until age 19. My best friend was sexually active in high school.
    Out of the cast of characters in the movie, I would say I had pieces of a few of them. A bit like Allison in that I was artistic, & I was quiet & kept to myself most of the time. I hardly ever spoke up in class or raised my hand. A little of Brian because I was striving for good grades & even took a few Advanced Placement (AP) courses for pssible university credit. Plus, I was a band geek for a couple of years. Finally, a little.bit of Bender in the sense of being a hurt & angry person, although I'd rarely let my anger show.
    I had Saturday Detention in high school, but we called it Saturday School. I had racked up too many unexcused tardies. I think I would have preferred sitting in a room writting an essay. We had to "beautify" the school. Some of us had to clean graffiti off the walls, some of us had to pick up trash & the rest had to go from classroom to classroom scraping gum from under the desks.😝 Ok, I think that's all I have to say. Great reaction.😊👍

    I would say I was a mix of Allison (the quiet and extremely shy girl who teachers and classmates wouldn't even notice at class) and Brian (smartass and super hard on myself) at school.
    The circle trauma dumping always breaks me, specially Brian's lines. It's just so true. Doesn't matter if you are nice with the popular girls/guys, you'll always be the outcast if you don't act like them. At some point I was bullied too, but that stopped after some years... So I guess I was fortunate to at least turn into the invisible one. It no longer hurt physically, but it still hurt mentally (to the point where I was like Brian)..
    I discovered this movie last year and it's already one of my favorites. It heals, but I can't help but be a bit bitter that I never experienced something like that at school - be seen and accepted. If someone would've just cared to get close to me, they would've met my comfortable self - someone who can talk nonstop about absolutely anything 😂

Most of my friends were in older grades or already out of school. I had a terrible home life, so I was full of rage. I moved out on my own when I was 15 (it was a long time ago, so you could get away with stuff like that), and it took me a long time to learn that normal relationships didn't work that way. The transition was difficult and took many years and two divorces, but I finally lost that edge that made me an a-hole. As a teacher, I was nothing like that prick. I think my background helped me to empathize with the situations of my students, all of which were low income and/or in the system.

I wouldn't have done it otherwise. I was one of the rotten kids in high school, always partying and eventually dropping out after the 9th grade. Obviously, as an adult, I went back to school and got an MA in special education (mild/moderate learning disabilities)....but when I was a teenager, I was a nightmare. Also, you said "of course" to the question of the redhead being a virgin, with reasoning being that she was in high school. To be clear, I didn't know too many virgins in high school, and I didn't know too many virgins when I taught high school. A lot of my girls were pregnant, or had children.

    Back when I was in highschool, I was a sort of mix between Alice and Brian. I was the quiet kid who got decent grades, but I was friendly with everyone. But, I hung out mostly with similar types of kids to Bender, or the kids who were fairly heavily into videogames (I never was really athletic or had much interest in sports except playing them to have fun).

    It's not normal now, but in 1985, it was very normal for kids to be, um, extremely involved in high school. I graduated in '88, and from eighth grade on, there was always at least one pregnant girl in school. One of my classmates had her senior yearbook taken with her baby. (Another had his taken with his gun. I'm from the sticks.) It wasn't everyone, but it was certainly nothing that would shock people. But that's really changed a lot in the decades since. Now, it's not very common (thank God), and it does shock people.
    Anyway, I was the drama nerd in high school, so kind of a cross between Brian and Allison.

    I know this doesn't really address any of your questions, but I graduated in '85 and the song _Don't You Forget About Me_ was released that year. We all voted for our class graduation song and it won. But our song ended up being _We Are the World¹_ instead. I was told it was because they couldn't find the sheet music. And it's ridiculous but it still bothers me to this day. 😄
    In my high school there were cliques, of course. But we all mixed. Friends crossed those lines all the time. We were not so segmented as it is often portrayed in film and tv. Of course, that's one school out of a gazillion, so perhaps it happened more often than what I experienced.
    ··●◯●··
    ¹ ─ I disliked _We Are the World_ already. While it of course raised a lot of money for a good cause, it was a blatant copy after the British and other European singers and bands released the superior single _Do They Know It's Christmas?_ written by Midge Ure and Bob Geldof to raise money for the famine in Ethiopia. What can I say? Guess I was a music snob. Certainly not the only one at that age. 😏
