The Breakfast Club :hai:
Director: John Hughes
Starring: Teens! And Judd Nelson hitting on Molly Ringwald
Plot:
John Hughes exposes typical high school teen stereotypes like a racist talks about Obama. The principal Richard Vernon is not the "good guy", but rather an antagonist that unwittingly helps spark the fire for this films real message about being anti-establishment. Or something like that. It's been a while since I've seen this.
Trailer: :thumbsup:
Movie:
Notably, several members of this cast also went on to star in "St. Elmo's Fire" that came out later in 85'.
Feel free to discuss anything related to the movie, including high school life, other John Hughes films, the soundtrack, or some of the rising/declining careers of the actors/actresses of this film.
Regards,

This song which was hugely popular upon release for the movie, was actually turned down by several big name artists in the 80's before Simple Minds picked it up. Cy Curnin from The Fixx, Bryan Ferry and Billy Idol all turned it down, though Billy Idol would later cover it.
