That's why you have so many dumb 16 year old chicks claiming to be in love with their high school sweetharts because from their perspective a month of talking to them is a lifetime of knowing them even though neither of their personalities are fully developed yet due to having little to no real life experiences.

My assessment on these teens are -Brian and Andrew’s parents are both overachievers. It seems that they’re both achieving what they did not have through their children (especially in Andrew’s case) -Claire’s parents appear to be loving, but they buy her love and have conflicting parenting styles (if mom says no, her father says yes). It seems that her parents compete for her love as well -Allison’s ignore her (while they don’t say why, but my guess is they’re either workaholics, narcissistic, mentally ill, or substance abusers) -Bender’s parents are physically and emotionally abusive, from a low income background or substance abusers. His father seems to have misogynistic views as he beats his wife for so much as agreeing with him and orders her around.

Bender lost it when Allison was insulted. Bender treats Allison like a little sister, probably since they have a similar home situation, and this has been displayed throughout the whole movie.

Other times I see Clare only talking to Andy while Brian is friends with Allison, Bender and Andrew (secretly). Clare being secret lovers with Bender. Bender openly talking to Clare and Andy just to see what happens.There have even been times when I imagine everything went back to normal as if nothing happened (even if I refuse to believe that and think they should be friends). The one couple I've always held out hope for was Andy and Allison. I always believed somehow, some way, they'd stay together, whether it be in secret or not.

The exchange of "I hate you!" "Yeah? Good!" between Bender and Claire is maybe one of the most intense moments in the movie because that single 5 word exchange says so much for both characters. Claire, afraid that everything he said is true, afraid that she's just as vapid and uncaring as the rest of the cliche rich kids when she wishes and wants to be more than that, better than that. And Bender who's response of "Good" continues to show how he covers up his emotions. With two words he essentially is saying 'You hate me? What do I care, everybody else does, why not you?' when in reality, it effects him more than he'll ever say.

In school everyone was still trying to figure things out, I hung out with people I’d be hard pressed to be around as an adult and it wasn’t uncommon to see various social groups explore a bit.

I think it points to a similarity between the characters. Bender and Claire are both very much self-aware. One being at the bottom of the hierarchy, and the other being at the top of it. It's only here that Claire can be honest and show how much she doesn't like it, and that she is aware of what is happening, that as much as it makes you hate her - it makes you realize that she is in her own hell. In the end, Bender rubs off on everyone - in a sort of - just say fuck it - kind of way. When you see Claire and Bender both acknowledge the irony of their potential relationship - even in the end - you get a feeling that she is going to be a better person because of him confronting her. When she gives him the diamond, it's a bit of the princess giving the pauper a token of her love. It may not be real, but it was in that moment. That being said. I always feel like when Bender walks across the football field, fist in air - it's the audience getting a chance to see that Bender knew he was the winner the entire time.

I just noticed something. The whole clip, each shot is a close up of either the person speaking, or another's reaction. Makes them feel isolated from the group. And at the end, once they've learn a lot more about each other and had their therapy, its a shot of them all together, like they are a group of friends.

one of the greatest scenes in film history reasons why: 1. it reveals the internal hardships of kids and how it effects their being 2. it sheds light on the social constructs of high school and the pressure each kid experiences bc of this 3. it doesn’t cloud over any taboo subjects 4. u get to see every kids perspective which helps u understand each character better and why they act the way they do which can help u have insight into your own life and the people in it. 5. it highlights that no matter how popular or unpopular u are u can still share similar issues with other people

I felt like Andy was the anchor of this entire sequence, his speech was the BEST moment of the entire film, but just the way he encouraged Brian to let out why he had the gun in his locker and stood up for Claire against Bender.

Emilio absolutely killed it in his monologue. Such a raw scene and so rare to see a “bully” character reflecting on their actions and being truly ashamed. Acknowledging the torment he inflicted on a kid for absolutely no reason and coming to terms with why he’s the way he is on the spot. You can see pure catharsis as he lays it all out

I'm Asian and I felt the pain Brain had. My parents and many of my relatives impose this pressure on us, children and when I was shamed for not graduating with honors, I wanted to die and also when I kept failing, I also wanted to die and give up because I felt like going nowhere. Kudos to his acting. Thank you for shedding so much light to this as early as 1985

The pressures of being young is hard...and adults love to push many teenagers feelings aside and don't acknowledge it cause they think "oh they don't know any better"... there's so much put on our shoulders especially in highschool and honestly we are all looking for people to just listen and just walk in someone else's shoes for once.

Adults often forget how awful being a teenager is. Once those overwhelming emotions and imbalanced hormones of experiencing things for the first time, once all those things are gone, they’re gone for good. Unless your an adult affected by depression you’re never gonna understand how awful it is. And I think we can all agree being a teen today is way more difficult than it was in the 80s-90s. Teens today have to deal with social media.

I think that was only brought up to confront that notion and the suggestion is that it’s ultimately *their* choice. Andrew is especially firm in his stance especially after the guilt he feels for what he did to Larry. Why would he repeat anything similar with Brian? Bender likely doesn’t have many friends or very many good ones given his defensive response when asked about them. He likely doesn’t want to admit this, although he does stand up for Brian and berate Claire for her selfishness. Everyone else in the circle seems to want to maintain friendship except for Claire initially, but… I’d like to think that Claire giving Bender her earring and thusly, Bender accepting Claire’s earring and wearing it signifies that the entire group chose to change and become friends.

Such a POWERFUL scene on the dynamics of peer pressure. My goodness!

4:39 The look on Bender's face as Brian speaks. It's one of so many beautiful moments in this classic film. It's the look of a young man thinking "Hey, maybe we're not so different after all." This movie will never get old, even though I have.

Y’know, after Andrew’s confession about Larry and how much he regrets it, I believe him when he disagrees with Claire’s assumption that he would cut Brian up towards his friends. At the height of his dad’s influence on him, you can tell that he is just begging to break into his own person, and Claire at this point, doesn’t believe that’s possible because of her own clique and experience. It’s a really subtle way of separating two similar types of people and I love it so much. Such a brilliant scene

In a weird way Claire was absolutely right when she says on Monday none of them would be friends... they may acknowledge each other in passing but that's about it...even tho 2 of the couples hooked up at the end... but in honesty Claire would dump Bender by Monday 😀

I had a very similar experience like this with a group of kids back in high school and once the event was over, two of them kind of remained friends (but they already were kind of friends) and the rest of us just parted ways. Once school started again I tried to reach out a couple times (like a small "hey" in the hallway or class) but was just treated as a stranger and ignored - I didn't really push it any further. I mean the weekend was a pretty big experience for me (growth wise - I had like no friends) but the hurt afterwards was awful, I almost wish I had never even been part of the project. Though, in the end, high school doesn't matter, you kind of forget about everything once its over and you get to restart.

Could see if Bender's friends started picking on Brian, Bender would have spoken up and said to "knock it off" doubt he would have done much more for him. Bender would not have been the same level of snob as Clair no, but he has friends to keep too and in some ways his would be more important because they are his escape from his shitty life. I figure Andrew and Allison never lasted long. She is not going to get a daily makeover and eventually would revert to her old ways and Andrew would cave to pressure. No way that jock's friend would not have told him to ditch her fast. Truth is I could see Andrew and Clair as friends and Brian and Allison and friends possibly (although even that is unlikely) but I think most of them never gave more than a casual nod in the hall after leaving that detention. Claire had it right, the truth was the others didn't want to admit it. Even Brian would have likely had his friend make fun of Andrew if they tried to make a go. Yeah he wouldn't have had as much to lose or as likely to lose him, but sure "what's with being friends with the meathead who bulled us?" would come up.

You don't have to be good at school to be astonishingly articulate. Bender could have dyslexia. As a result he can't read well so he gets poor grades. This his crappy home life leads him to repress his emotions and to lash out at authority figures, like teachers. School is more about regimentation and following the rules and way less about true intellectual exploration. I did very well in high school so I know--if you follow the rules to a T, regurgitate info well and be pleasant to teachers, you get high grades.

Not only is he the one character that they all get along with (even bender he just hides it) but he also shows his emotions in the crying scene. All he wants is for the rest if them to accept him they way he would accept them in front of his peers.

At 1:27 and 5:50, her anguish about her place in the world is so real. She doesn't want to put on a "face" to impress anyone and just wants to be accepted for who she is. You can feel how real she is when she says, "When you grow up, your heart dies". When Bender retorted, "Who cares?", the look in her eyes is so genuine when she say. "I care." Really fabulous acting!

Us loners know how crappy it is to do to someone, which is why we choose our friends very carefully. Our friends are just like us: loners. That way we can trust each other, but recoginze there is a barrier. We dont like to go outside of our groups because that risks exposure to pain. He also right in saying that the rich kids condecend to speak to us. They always talk to us like they know better, but they are no different.

Stelena Klauroline Bellarke i come from a poor background and i also gave my all emotionally and financially and at the end got betrayed left and right. so i feel u its not bout the money its bout character.

Honestly, it’s true about them not remaining friends. I was a loser at my school. I also happen to go to the same church as a few of the popular kids. We went on a trip as a youth group. Had a great time. I got to know them. They got to know me. We opened up and it felt real. I got back to school, and nothing changed. Their friends still picked on me. They did nothing. This scene is great, because it is real, but it’s really heartbreaking that the only kid that might get treated okay after the film is over is the one who changed to fit in.

I think ot would depend on the people. Claire's type would never friends with you and would talk about you. . Alison type would be your friend. Bender and Andy wouldn't be friendly but wouldn't ignore you or treat you bad. When this movie came out, I liked Allison the most. All these years later still do.

03:05 - I LOVED Brian's response. Really got Claire to open her eyes and look at her behavior and let her open her mind about her choices 👍

I always thought Bender inspired 90s fashion.

As much as I'm curious to know what actually did happen Monday, a part of me doesn't want to know, reasons being. One, we don't have to worry about a sequel that would most likely become a right fuck up like most franchises that get milked dry of ideas, and two, being such a good movie it gives us that unanswered ending approach where us as the viewers, can use our imagination or assumptions to what did happen, depending on the quality of the ending, it's sometimes a preference.

Well, at least the couples must been together for some days.

"Don't you ever talk about my friends! You don't know any my friends, you don't look at any of my friends, and you certainly wouldn't condescend to speak with any of my friends!" I always wondered if any of Bender's friends were in similar situations to him at home, and that was why he defended them so passionately. Obviously he could just be a good friend and maybe I'm reading too much into it but it's what I always felt from this scene

It’s almost surreal how close to a real emotionally charged conversation this actually is. They’re not just acting here, but they’re really feeling something. The tears coming from the actors are clearly real. No eye drops going on in the make-up department.

See Brian's attitude was he thought only stupid people take shop, which is not true. There are many people who have brains who take shop. I did.

We all know how amazing Emilio, Ally, Molly and Judd are but not enough people talk about just how amazing Anthony is. I love the look of shock when they see Brian cracks and finally breaks down, especially when he curses at Claire. Up until now he's been the awkward geek people step all over- even his parents and teachers- and worst of all is that Brian allows people step all over him. Hes too soft spoken to stand up for himself and is desperately trying to keep up with the demands of everyone around him, all while being picked on and seen as a "dork" at school. But it's finally when Claire tells him he "doesn't understand pressure" that he's finally had enough. Everyone up until now has ripped into him (except Alison I think 🤔) thinking hes this dweebie little goody-two-shoes who has a perfect life, with perfect loving parents and perfect grades well on his way to a perfect life (ie "you're a parent's wet dream" and "you're a neo-maxi-zoon-dweebie. What would you be doing if you weren't out making yourself a better citizen?") - but the truth is the weight of his parents and teacher's expectations have broken him down to the point that a single F almost caused him to commit suicide. He knows about pressure in the worst way, it's not just that he's this honor roll perfect student- hes EXPECTED to be that way by everyone in his life. Any sort of failure is devastating and he's terrified of what will happen if he fails- hes afraid of his parents verbal wrath. Even his mother doesn't show an ounce of sympathy and instead reprimands him for being in trouble then follows up by demanding he continue to study despite already being a perfect straight A student up until now. I feel so sorry for him, you just know that crack was coming, it was only a question of when

"your friends wouldn't mind because they look up to us". Jesus, that line definitely feels like a response someone would give. Its so real it pissed me off irl. People who think they are worshiped just can't accept that they are not.

It’s definitely something a popular self absorbed person would say ironically they leave high school and are shocked when everyone doesn’t worship them anymore.

I would've really like it if Brian and Allison had ended up together at the end of the film.

I agree, to me it would’ve made more sense. There wasn’t any visible connection between Andrew and Allison at the beginning, I don’t get how they should have ended up together, he didn’t really notice her until she had that damn makeover, if anything Clair and Andrew together made more sense. And Bender, I mean he’s my favorite character but he’s too much of a bad boy and he really kind of treated Claire like shit so I don’t get why she liked him.

As a 16 year old I can relate with Claire because when I was a freshman we did this thing called freshman retreat and were put into groups for 2 days, all of us from different groups and we got along very well and the end I felt very close to these people but when it was over on Saturday and went back to school on Monday none of us acknowledged each other cause all of were from groups that never got along and to this day we never talk to each other all because of the stupid fucking cliques in school.

Clair had it right, some people are shocked but either things have changed a lot these days or they are kidding themselves. When I was in high school one year I was a councilors aid, which had a lot of down time and it was me and 3 other kids (well 4 but one much like Ally Sheedy never talked, no lie) and we spent a lot of time chatting, joking and having a good time. Watch from that you would think we were the best of friends. But we as the cliché goes "came from different worlds" and we never talked to each other outside those doors, other than nods in the hall I don't think any of us ever even exchanged a hello. We just absorbed back into our own social circle. High School was like that.

This is why the breakfast club is the greatest movie ever made

I love how the characters throughout the movie are so inconsistent like how teenagers are, they like each other and then they don’t, they like themselves and then they don’t. And then this conversation starts with each of them being in denial about the horrible aspects of their character, and finally after someone from another group points it out to them, they open up. Like a “this needed to happen so you can grow” kinda conversation. It perfectly represents the benefits of unity regardless of each others’ differences and honesty towards both yourself and other people.
