I really do think the scriptwriter and crew behind this old movie are quite awesome man!:D
How old is this film? It's older than me and as old as my bro...so imagine that! I'm watching something that was made even before i was born!
So after all the hoo-haa....what is the name of the film already? Its called " The Breakfast Club" The whole feel of the show is very indie...whether it really is, im not too sure....? But what i do know is that it became a cult classic. And i can understand why. No. There were no super sleek animation effects then yet, nor some great sound pack action stuff, though some of the songs were familiar to me....i must be old...:P
The acting was just so-so, if i were to really pick on it, but I did like two of the more odd characters in the show.
Allison Reynolds:The basket case of the group, in detention apparently because she had nothing better to do. She is the most socially isolated and claims to have no friends.
John Bender: The criminal of the group, in detention for pulling a false fire alarm. John Bender starts many of the events throughout the film.Read more about the film and characters on wiki. here**(loads of info on the site) and if your interested you can check out another site for this show here**
Yea, this two characters were weird and at times maybe annoying? But, you grow to like them more throughout the process.
I find it interesting to be able to set the whole film in just one location, the school;the library. About 80% of the show was set in the library, makes you wonder, how do you make a good film that way, same set, same things, wouldn't it be boring?
True, at times when they talked too much and the mrt was buzzing too loudyly, i felt it was getting dry, but towards the end, when everyone was slowly opening up, then did i feel, ahhh..this is such a cleverly written movie....
Or maybe I was the only one which felt so, but i do think, to set a film just in such limited location , it is very clever.
Something made me want to watch the movie till the end, it was those type of rustic charm as i would say?
Lastly, i always liked movies which had quotable quotes, those which would leave an impression on me...this one had one i really like. I think it left quite an impression on most people who watched it? The focal point of the show, i would think of it as a nice knot to tie the loose strings. It ended with this...
"Dear Mr. Vernon, we accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole saturday in detention for whatever it is we did wrong, but we think you're crazy for making us write an essay telling you who we think we are.
*I love the next bit*
You see us as you want to see us, in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out, is that each one of us is a brain, and an athlete, and a basketcase, a princess, and a criminal.
Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, The Breakfast Club. "
If you can, catch the show, you might like it...;)
