The Breakfast Club (1985)

About this episode

"You see us as you want to see us — in the simplest terms and the most convenient definitions"

This Ends at Prom is celebrating its 3-year anniversary by closing out the Hughes/Ringwald trilogy and finally tackling the teen movie of all teen movies, THE BREAKFAST CLUB. The Wives Colangelo discuss what the film has to say about growing up, lamenting your teen years, the cruel hierarchy of high school, whether it's as problematic as contemporary audiences claim, and why the film remains a generational favorite.

This episode is part of our TEEN MOVIE HELL series honoring the memory of Mike "McBeardo" McPadden. Don't you forget about him.
