The Breakfast Club made me cry

[Sunshinemummified]

Have just watched The Breakfast Club. I had remembered it as a real feel good teen film but it has made me cry. Judd Nelson's character is so so . It's so different looking at it from the perspective of a parent!

[TheDevilEatsBabies]

i watched it as an adult too baouta year ago and i cried too.

I knew they all had some back story but his is just so awful. When he shows them the cigar burn I wanted to give him a big cuddle.

its a fab film

[mrmump]

So many films from our childhood are like that. I only watched "sound of music" again a few weeks ago, and only now as an adult do I understand the whole Nazi perspective.

God I love the Breakfast Club! Watched it years ago while pissed merry and loved the rebellion. Watched it later while in a sombre mood and was touched by the troubles of the kids. Watched it in a nostaglic mood and just enjoyed the story and the laughs. Love that it can get you in different places at different times, y'know?

[southeastastra]

haven't seen that film for ages, saw it when it came out at the pictures, ah those were great times

[ProfYaffle]

Oh I love that film, first watched it aged 17 while skipping college with a mate and drinking cider.

Don't think I've watched it since becoming a parent though.

Judd Nelson. Ah, the nostrils! I did love him...

[mrmump]

I loved the ending when they catogorised themselves. And when Molly Ringwold gave that other girl that awful makeover! She looked so much better before hand!

[southeastastra]

i fancied judd too, he had those dangerous gloves , ha his nostrils were a bit like a dragon

[mrmump]

Dragon? He reminded me of Touche Turtle.

[LittleWhiteWereWolf]

Ally Sheedy. That was the other girl. She and Judd Nelson were living together and engaged in St Elmos Fire.

[southeastastra]

they are impressive nostrils

[LittleWhiteWereWolf]

Like caves.

He had to be the only 30yr old student in that school.
