  • I FINALLY watch THE BREAKFAST CLUB (1985) for the FIRST TIME!
    ------------------------------------
    Movie Summary:
    Five high school students from different walks of life endure a Saturday detention under a power-hungry principal (Paul Gleason). The disparate group includes rebel John (Judd Nelson), princess Claire (Molly Ringwald), outcast Allison (Ally Sheedy), brainy Brian (Anthony Michael Hall) and Andrew (Emilio Estevez), the jock. Each has a chance to tell his or her story, making the others see them a little differently -- and when the day ends, they question whether school will ever be the same.

    I was born in 1977 so I've seen this movie a billion times, but the coolest time was in grad school for social work. The professor didn't tell us which movie we were watching, just that it was "a case study of a group therapy session." Then she turned on The Breakfast Club. It was the perfect example for the class.

    My 2 favorite moments are about Allison...First when she so hesitantly decides to confide in Andrew that the big thing that her parents do to her is 'they ignore me...' Despite having the opposite problem (a father who so forcefully imposes himself on Andrew's entire life) - Andrew obviously understands that the opposite extreme, parental indifference, is just as messed up as having pushy demanding micromanaging parents. Second, during Allison's makeover...surely a common bonding moment with cliquey girly girls but foreign to outcast Allison...Allison is honestly bewildered by Clair's genuine kindness and has to ask 'Why are you being so nice to me?'...and Clair pauses as if she's not even sure herself...and then answers in an almost nervous laugh 'Because you're letting me...' As in...really, there's nothing complicated. If you let your walls and defenses down occasionally, sometimes a little kindness will come in.

    • @thedefinitionisthis
      @thedefinitionisthis Před 3 měsíci

      At face value, it does kinda seem that Allison "sells out" by getting the makeover, but I gotta admit that I liked Judd Nelson's response to the scene. When Allison asks: "Why are you being so nice to me?"... Claire responds: "Because you're letting me." Judd Nelson in an interview, pointed out that it wasn't about the makeover itself; it was about Allison doing something for Claire by just, as you put it, letting her walls and defenses down.

    • @Lookatmeshine
      @Lookatmeshine Před 2 měsíci +1

      ​​​@@thedefinitionisthis I also think it represents that she's allowing herself to be seen. She feels invisible and she dresses in a way that matches that feeling, hides behind her hair, dark clothes, quiet and while that might be a style she genuinely loves it's also just "safe" as it reinforces what she knows. The makeover allowed her to be seen fully, for people to be able to fully look her in the eyes, and for her to look in theirs and see that they actually care about her.

Also, I would love to recommend a musical (since I've been loving your reactions to musicals so so much) called The Sapphires. It's an Australian movie musical set in 1968 about a group of young Aboriginal Australian women who are discovered by a talent scout; and they end up in Vietnam singing for the American soldiers. The music is phenomenal. Not only is it an amazing musical, but it educates people on some Aboriginal history. Oh, and it's also based on a true story! Highly, highly recommend!

    I graduated from high school only a few years before this movie came out and, yes it does feel mostly accurate to the times. One thing that stands out is hoe rare sushi was back then, so bringing it for school lunch in a bento box for a detention lunch that was supposed to be taking place in 1984 was absolutely insane! My school had a lot of very rich kids, but no one brought sushi for lunch. It really did ser her apart as the "princess" in this movie.
    I had a lot of trouble with the way women and minorities were treated in the John Hughes teen movies back in the 80s, but then I was in a male dominated career and I was always fighting for my right to even exist. It made look at these films with the values that my Mom taught me. It's one thing for a woman to be attracted to a "bad boy, " it's get another to have her be attracted to one that treats her badly as a foundation for a relationship. It wasn't in this movie, but he's also used mistaken identity sex as something triumphant for one of the parties. Even in the 80s, I saw that as rapey.

    I always thought Bender spent a bit of time in Saturday detention (you can tell at various parts that Bender seems to be familiar with detention and the procedures). When he racks up more days, he's OK with it because being in detention is better than his home life. At least in detention all day on a Saturday (combined with all the regular school days during the week), he's away from his dad which means less abuse.

Like Molly Ringwald, Anthony Michael Hall, Emilio Estevez, Demi Moore, Rob Lowe, Judd Nelson, Andrew McCarthy, and Ally Sheedy. 5 which r in this film. I would be doing everything they did, if I were there and I did, lol. I had crush on Judd, dont know what grl wasnt. Everyone had weed in the 70s and 80s just not many knew or wasnt willing to say. Teachers could do anything back then also, but I was out of school a while by the time this came out. Carl the janitor is the man. Brian reading his paper at the end says it all.

    There was a bit of a controversy around the rating for this film. We felt it was ridiculous that a film made about teenagers for teenagers would receive a rating that would restrict their ability to see it based on the use of words those same kids used every day. The willful rejection of reality was maddening.

    You should watch St. Elmo’s Fire.. it’s a lot of the same cast (brat pack), plus some other 80s YA icons and it’s them navigating life and love after college.

    I had one detention like that, and I just blew it off...apparently there was so many there, that they never noticed I never showed up, because I never heard anything about it.

      Sometimes our staff would make sure we didn't get on the bus or anything, but once I could drive, there wasn't much they could do about it. I skipped it a lot of school and then detentions as a result. However, we also had "ISS" or In-School Suspension where you had to sit in a room during the school day and there was not to be any interactions with other students outside of ISS. I had it a few times, but I actually didn't mind it. I even met a cute girl in there once (she was 2 grades above me).

    I always love these reactions to this movie. It's such a staple for 80's kids. Btw, I love the scenes where you super impose yourself into the screen and look at us (the audience) It's kinda hysterical.

    This is such a great movie. Has all the elements to make you laugh, and has somewhat of a feel-good ending. But at the same time, when you think a little more about it, the ending is so sad. Think about it, the characters developed relationships with each other. But at school on Monday, they will be going back to their clicks, ignoring each other, acting like none of them exists.

    I just watched your reaction to American History X and Tropic Thunder now this one! I must say I love your perspective and HEART! Along with the logic that comes with knowledge and how you speak on things in the movies! You’re just there giving your opinion with an open mind! I understand that so much! I applaud you! It almost can make you feel like you are having a conversation with us without having a conversation with us! I just subscribed after checking out a few of your videos! I honestly love how you view things! As for us the subscribers, I’m sure they feel the same way! Keep going young man! You got this! NOW LET’S RUN THIS CHANNEL UP! This MAN DESERVES IT! Much love and respect for your thoughts and interactions! All I can hear is “RISING UP, STRAIGHT TO THE TOP, TOOK MY TIME TOOK MY CHANCES, WENT THE DISTANCE NOW IM NOT LOOKING BACK, JUST A MAN AND HIS WILL TO SURVIVE” 😂 real talk though! That’s what I see hear and feel from your reactions! Thank you Sir! From the heart!

    One of my favorite movies of all time. It was one of 2 that I played while I was in labor waiting on the process. The nurses loved coming in my room because I was passing the time with movies and music, trying to keep my mind occupied. Yes John was my crush from this back in the day but as I got older I grew to appreciate the Brians of the world so much more, his character was more complex than first impressions. He aged quite well too, time was much kinder to that actor than some of the others. New to the channel, wanted to add another First Time Watching channel to my list, would love to see you cover movies that aren't done by other channels. Ghost Dog is a great watch, if you haven't already seen it, as well as Session 9, not at all like this movie but ones I can't seem to find people reacting to.

    Yes! This movie was my everything when I was in high school. I first watched this when I was a junior in my film analysis class, and it never gets old watching it over and over again. Molly is actually going to be a guest at my local comic con, and I can’t wait to have the chance to meet her! 🥰
    There is one movie that I know of that drops the f-bomb 2x and still be rated PG-13. That movie is also from the 80s, and it’s called Adventures in Babysitting…definitely worth the watch!

    Bruh Molly looks just like my older sister! 😂 Molly represented Pink(just the color,not the brand) & my sister & i love pink, different shades of pink. And Molly was in "Pretty In Pink". In my confession, im kinda like her, not so close by her story, just her 80s looks.

    A "Brownie hound" is a person who goes after 'lil girls' - A 'Brownie' is a small/young girl scout; like a cub scout is for boys. He took the "doobage" out of his pants, that's why they were down when he got up.

    I was in highschool in the 70s. This was tame compared to school then.
    No one ever asked if I was okay in school, I missed a month at a time, feel asleep in class, so made good grades.
    I was being so tortured at home by my mother emotionally and physically... But that kind of thing everyone just looked away, not wanting to get involved. Tried to unalive myself, it was torture.
    So yea... Things were way more dangerous in school then.
    And about becoming your parents...? It's a choice. I got married and had 3 phenomenal girls, and we had a blast. We still do.
    John Hughes is a great story teller of highschool in that time.

  • @BishopWalters12
    @BishopWalters12 Před 4 měsíci

    John Hughes was the man, He directed 8 movies and 6 of them are classics or a least pretty damn close. Sixteen Candles, Weird Science, The Breakfast Club, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Ferris Buellers Day Off and Uncle Buck. His last two directed movies were his weakest but She's Having a Baby and Curly Sue are still decent. Of course, he wrote a bunch of great movies that he didn't direct like Vacation, Home Alone, The Great Outdoors, Some Kind of Wonderful, Pretty in Pink and so on. Huge fan and The Breakfast Club is in my top 5 favorite movies in general.

  • @Dollywood623
    @Dollywood623 Před 4 měsíci

    Great reaction 😂, although i didn't grow up in this type of setting, I went to inner city schools, i could relate to some of their issues for sure! I love this movie. Some trivia, that scene where they speak in a circle setting was filmed in pieces and some even did their part alone, then just edited together. Also "Claire and "Brian" actors, Molly Ringwald and Anthony Michael Hall dated in real life after this movie. I would recommend "Dangerous Minds"(1995), "Cornbread, Earl and Me"(1975). "Stand and Deliver"(1988) and "Fame"(1980). Always enjoy ur reactions.🔥

  • @briansharvill1794
    @briansharvill1794 Před 5 měsíci +2

    Breakfast club was two years after my graduation and summed up high school life, if a bit overly dramatic at times. The movie is rated PG and featured several actors/actresses that would be part of a defining cast over the course of several movies. The soundtrack was also a game changer of the music scene. great movie selection and great reaction as always.
    And just as with the character Brian, I was grounded for a B, was beaten for C. and a never managed straight A's even once... so report cards were never a fun time at my house.

    I like the character breakdowns that people do. Bender is what they all needed. Molly( Claire ) and “ Brian were actually 16 when they did this movie. “Andy” was 23, “Ally” was about 21 and yes Bender ( the cute one) was the oldest at 27.

  • @craiganderson5813
    @craiganderson5813 Před 4 měsíci

    The reason Bender spends so much time in detention is because he hates being at home with his abusive father. He made fun of everyone's lunch because he didn't have anything to eat himself. And he was scared of the detention teacher when he threatening him because he reminded him of his father at home.
