The Breakfast Club
The movie "The Breakfast Club" by John Hughes is a movie that takes place on a Saturday morning detention with 5 different students, from different social groups. There's Bender; the Criminal, Andrew; the Athlete, Claire; the popular girl, Brian; the brain, and Allison; the basket case. While in detention, they're suppose to write a report to a nasty, mean teacher about who they think they are, throughout the film they start interacting with each other over their dilemma, then notice they have a lot more in common than they had expected. None of them have any good communication with their parents, all of them are misunderstood, and they all hope they don't end up like their parents.
Claire is a spoiled, rich girl who skips class to go shopping. Brian is a virgin who thinks about sex and is interested in girls, but is ashamed. Bender is a juvenile delinquent, who is physically and verbally abused by his father. Andrew is an athlete who is tired of living up to parent's expectations. Allison is a weird girl, who is misunderstood.
This movie makes a connection to teenage adolescence because there are many teenagers today who go through problems such as these, and many can definitely relate. I think the Breakfast Club brings this to the attention of many audiences and makes them realize the challenges of being a teenager, and I think that John Hughes did an amazing job at directing this movie and I recommend it to all audiences.
