Last night, I felt inspired to watch the Breakfast Club. This movie is very popular and has been referenced in many aspects of current pop culture.
My Movie Review: The Breakfast Club
This movie makes detention and the 80's seem cool. The cinematography was excellent. It was both simple and complex. The scenes were only in the library, the hallway, and the cars where the teens were dropped off. Clearly, this movie was not that of which had a very high budget. This movie also had frequent pauses of silence. I'm not sure if that was to emphasize the last thing that was said or if there wasn't any solid background music that would properly fit it those spaces. Yet, the movie had this beautiful complexity to it There are 5 different types of people who seem to have nothing in common, yet they all end up having that experience with each other to share. The movie definitely reflected 80's values and 80's insensitivities. All in all, the movie was very good, especially when considering the technology they had at that time.
