The Breakfast Club - Keala Powell

This movie "The Breakfast Club" by John Hughes takes place in a Saturday Detention that lasts all morning into the afternoon. All of the kids in Saturday detention are classmates that may know things about each other or have seen other in passing. They are all so different from each other and fit into the stereotypes that others may think of them. They are segregated and don't see why they have to spend their Saturday when they could spend their time doing better things. This movie is realistic to me because a lot of high schools still have cliques and deal with bullying and labeling. I feel like our school doesn't really deal with the issues of cliques. I feel like people have their close group of friends but everyone is friendly with each other. The senior class is really close this year. At the end of the movie they promised each other that they would remain friends because of the bond they grew in Saturday detention. This is kind of weird that their bond grew so strong in a detention they hated being in and couldn't wait to leave. This detention was a blessing in disguise because they learned more about each other than their whole time at high school.
