The Breakfast Club (1985)

Five kids with nothing in common other than being in Saturday detention do their best to remain sane. This is 80's gold. The jock, the jerk, the dork, the little rich girl and the weird quiet klepto are the stock types given, but the depth of character raises the bar. If you’re lucky enough to have caught it during your mid-teens it can stay with you forever. Classic stuff.

4 jokes without a punchline out of 5 from me too.

Classic stuff.

It wasn't until getting the names from IMDB for the cast that I realised the dork is the guy from Dead Zone TV series. 0_0

You need to pay attention more in your "Where is The Brat Pack Now?" class.
