"Janitor is the eyes and ears of one institution. The cleaner is the eyes and ears of a school"

"We are all pretty bizarre, some of us are better at hiding it, everybody can do something.

You see us as what you want to see us, in the simplest terms, the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain and an athlete and a basket case a princess and a criminal. 你用Look at us with your own eyes, one of the simplest words, one of the most convenient definitions. But we found that we were a nerd, an athlete, a neurotic, a princess, and a criminal.

Sincerely yours, The Breakfast Club

See you next Saturday. You bet.

    Even if this film was filmed in 1985, everyone who has experienced youth will laugh, cry, be angry, and be sad after watching it. This is our youth, our school, our family, our... 【When you grow up, your heart dies.】

    (Just saying, my name is Claire...) Turns out to be my favorite tuberculosis film. I finally finished watching this legendary & all kinds of tribute classics, and all kinds of tributes made me watch it (easy A, pitch perfect, etc). Looking at the name, I always thought it was a group of people who love breakfast...orz. I love the unique rhythm of the 80s and 90s movies, and the narrative style is really different from the current movies. (But the woman in black doesn't look better without a makeover, but who cares, it's just make up) The male protagonist is actually not handsome and looks ape-like, but the aesthetics of the age may be different, the atmosphere creates.

The Breakfast Club quotes

  • Claire Standish: What would your friends say if we were walking down the hall together. They'd laugh their asses off and you'd probably tell them you were doing it with me so they'd forgive you for being seen with me.

    John Bender: Don't you ever talk about my friends. You don't know any of my friends. You don't look at any of my friends. And you certainly wouldn't condescend to speak to any of my friends. So you just stick to the things you know: shopping, nail polish, your father's BMW, and your poor, rich drunk mother in the Caribbean.

    Claire Standish: SHUT UP!

    John Bender: And as far as being concerned about what's gonna happen when you and I walk down the hallways of school together, you can forget it cuz it's never gonna happen. Just bury your head in the sand and wait for your fuckin' prom.

    Claire Standish: [Crying] I hate you!

    John Bender: Yeah? Good!

  • Allison Reynolds: I don't have to run away and live in the street. I can run away and I can go to the ocean, I can go to the country, I can go to the mountains. I could go to Israel, Africa, Afghanistan.
