Choose Film: A Reel Retrospective

EP95 THE BREAKFAST CLUB (Dir. John Hughes) w Sasha MacPherson

Nicola Docherty & Gary J Hewitt Season 12 Episode 95

Welcome to episode 095 of Choose Film Podcast. Grab a seat, stick some weed down your pants and don’t mess with the bull or you’ll get the horns. That’s right we are joined by Sasha Reid to discuss John Hughes’ The Breakfast Club.

Synopsis
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.
