Revenge of the Film Nerds
The Breakfast Club (1985)
I have a question, Film Nerds: Does Barry Manilow know you raid his wardrobe?
On this week's episode, BK & Jack take a look at the extremely complicated history of what is often considered to be the quintessential film of the 1980s. Hear how John Hughes created a space in the art form for serious teenage voices for the first time by utlizing his own penchant for rebellion, how the principal crew on the project had to fight the studio every step of the way to make the film, how the bonds between the cast translated into universal & relatable characters, the checkered legacy of the film's director & films, & much, much, more! This is one of our juiciest discussions yet, and you won't wan to miss it!
Sincerely yours, The Film Nerds.
