Breakfast Club

The Breakfast Club is probably one of the most simple blogs I've written all year and thats simply because it was so lovable; the current teen generation,the past, and most likely the ones to come will be able to relate to this more. Yes, technology will me greater at that time but the underlying messages of the five stereo types that are portrayed in high school. But the theme and messages weren't the only thing that allowed the movie to be so great, how it was put together gave it that extra sense of character. For instance, the conflict/connection the five students have throughout the movie, the music that both amps up the tension in many different senses, lastly, the ability to bring humor out in tough times. Progressively through the movie, there is either conflict between two or more characters or a connection between the two. The different thing about the breakfast club is the change of pace, one moment we think Andrew, the jock, and Claire, the popular girl, have some sort of relationship. But as the movie shifts we start to see Andrew and Allison have a connection and same goes for Claire and John. (SPOILER ALERT!) That's not the only shift in characters we see but that's just one of the many examples.
Going back to what I said at the beginning of the blog, this movie is so relatable because of the high school aspect that its full of stereotypes that students see or encounter during their high school years. I think that's why so many love this movie, the fact that the characters draw in so many different types of crowds but as the movie goes on, it brings them all together but in ways you wouldn't expects. All and all, I defiantly recommend this movie to anyone that is in high school or has already been though high school in the past.
