      burst into tears

      What I liked about breakfast club: the nerdy math kid
      What I didn't like about the breakfast club: all the other kids
      The education system in the US is really loose, tmd, when I think of when my former head teacher was angry and the whole class stayed in school, I called one Frightened, I didn't dare to move with the heavy schoolbag in my hand. I had to stand straight for more than 2 hours. I was only 14 years old at that time, and because of the sound of putting down the schoolbag,...

      Everyone's Breakfast Club

      I wanted to echo the sentence "not so godlike, a bit far-fetched", but there is no force to force me to write it up. It's like when you finish a question, but there is another voice calling you, come and check, or you will lose one point, one point. . . . "
             And sometimes checking is like picking treasures. You find mistakes in the exam paper that you have done, just like finding gold in the gravel. Then take the exam, and you can continue with the good mood of picking treasures....

      I hate people like this guy

      There are three kinds of people I hate:

      One is the one who loves to label others. This kind of person always simply divides people into one category, nerd, princess, athlete, and always draws a clear line between others and themselves. Others are inferior so easily classified by themselves, and there is always an inexplicable sense of superiority. Pretentious.

      The second is a person who attributes his misfortune to others. This kind of person may really suffer misfortune and...

      Profound but not heavy, very rare campus youth film

      I think the most prominent part of this movie is that it does not provide any solution to the problem, but it explores and understands the problem, and understanding is the prerequisite for the solution. The whole film only describes the story within 8 hours a day, but the characters in the whole film are the epitome of everyone in our middle school years, and almost everyone can find a little more or less of themselves in it. I think the most exciting part of the film is the five...

      Friend of the day

      I like sitting on the floor and talking the most. I didn’t expect it to be improvised by the actors. The classmates who were simply defined as athletes, little princesses, gangsters, nerds, and freaks were all sincere and beautiful, who needed to be loved and involuntarily involuntarily behind them. Today they can sit together and open their hearts and understand "parents". All harms, others are the reality of hell. After today is over, are they still good friends? How will they continue to...

    Behind the scenes gags

    This is the second film directed by director John Hughes. He completed the script of the film in only two days (July 4 and 5, 1982).
    The film stars five high school students who define themselves as princesses, nerds, athletes, freaks, and criminals.
    Initially, "Breakfast Club" had planned to shoot a sequel every ten years to show the life of every club member, but this idea was not achieved in the end. The primary reason is that the...

    Evaluation action

    In the thirty years since its release, "Breakfast Club" has not only influenced and moved generations of young people, but also profoundly influenced the evolution and development of American youth-themed films. The significance of "Breakfast Club" may be that it shows real high school life and teenagers' psychology, their lives, emotions, and their complex relationships with family and society. This small-cost film without a big...
