Write a sentence about each of the five student characters. Brian, Claire, Allision, Andrew & John.
- Brian is the nerd of the group. He is misunderstood by everyone. He is under a lot of pressure from his parents to do well.
- Claire is the gorgeous, popular girl, she doesn't talk to any of the others as she's better then them. But nearing the end of the film, she explains that its all just a facade.
- Allison is an emo. There's really no other way of describing it. Black clothes, black hair, thick dark eye make up. Brooding nature.
- Andrew is the jock, the sports freak. He and his "group" are bullies who pick on anyone who isn't as "cool" as them. Eg, Brian.
- John is the classic bad boy. Doesn't give a stuff about anyone. Himself included.
How do the students feel about each other at the start of the film? How and why does this change?
No one talks to anyone. Except from the occasional deliberately annoying noise from John. No one wants to be there. This changes over the course of the day. Moods change quickly, one minute they're sitting there in silence, the next they laughing at someone, then at each other. Then they're in tears and declaring themselves. Revealing themselves to people they've never spoken to and probably will never speak to again.
What is the plot of The Breakfast Club?
Five secondary students are thrown together in a Saturday detention. None of them are friends and they couldn't be more different from each other. But as the day wears on, they become closer, eventually becoming friends.
What are the costumes worn by the following characters: Brian, Claire, Allision, Andrew & John.
The film is set in the secondary school library for most of it, but it also uses the corridors, the gymnasium and the front of the school. Oh, and inside the roof.
List and briefly describe the issues and themes raised during the film? How are they similar/different to other teen films you have watched?
'Never judge a book by it's cover' and 'People aren't always as they appear' were major themes in the film. Each person was hiding something and how they were seen was not actually who they were.

What are the costumes worn by the following characters: Brian, Claire, Allision, Andrew & John.
- Brian wears a geeky green woollen jumper, beige trousers and a big watch. He has a very nerdy appearance. But surprisingly he didn't have glasses as the stereotype has.
- Claire, being the popular girl, wears beautiful, expensive clothes. Tight skirt, pink blouse, neat, stylish hair cut, manicured nails, expensive jewellery.
- Allison wears mostly black. Black clothes, hair out covering most of her face, thick black eye make up.
- Andrew wears a sports hoodie and jeans,sneakers. Neat appearance.
- John wears loose jeans, loose flannelette shirt over a white long sleeved shirt, oversized shoes, chains hanging off his jeans. Rough, gangster look.

Each student had issues with their home life. Pressure from parents, bullying by parents etc etc.
Most teen films have similar issues to normal teens, to attract their attention and draw them into the story. The Breakfast Club used this too.
Does this film appeal to you? Why or why not?
I really enjoyed the film. I loved the extreme changes of the group. No one spoke to anyone then their declaring themselves. It was really good.
