Description
Featuring 3 of the best movies from the master of the 80s teen movie, John
Hughes. Fans of the 'Brat Pack' need look no further!
The Breakfast Club (1985): They only met once, but it changed their lives
forever.
Without doubt, John Hughes' The Breakfast Club is one of the greatest teen
movies of all-time, if not the best.
They were five teenage students with nothing in common, faced with spending a
Saturday detention together in their High School library. At 7am, they had
nothing to say, but by 4pm, they had bared their souls to each other and become
good friends. To the outside world they were simply the Jock, the Brain, the
Criminal, the Princess, and the Kook, but to each other, they would always be
The Breakfast Club.
The film's unique title comes from the nickname invented by students and staff
for detention at the school attended by the son of one of John Hughes' friends.
Thus, those who were sent to detention were designated members of "The Breakfast
Club".
Sixteen Candles (1984): It's the time of your life that.
It's Samantha Baker's Sweet Sixteen and no one in her family seems to remembers
the important occasion. Director John Hughes, shows how coming-of-age can be
full of surprises in this warm-hearted teen comedy starring 80s favourite, Molly
Ringwald.
She's your average teen, enduring creepy guys, spoilt siblings, confused parents
and the stunning blonde who stands between her and the boy of her dreams. But
wait... the day isn't over yet!
This superb film features a dynamic score, and outstanding performances by Paul
Dooley, Emmy winner Blanche Baker and Oscar nominee Justin Henry.
Weird Science (1985): It's all in the name of science. Weird Science.
The Frankenstein legend takes an uproarious twist in this outrageous special
effects - laden comedy from John Hughes. Nerdy computer whiz, Wyatt Donnelly,
and best friend, Gary Wallace (Anthony Michael Hall), endeavour to create the
"perfect woman" (the magnificent, Kelly Le Brock). Like a computer generated
fairy godmother, the duo's out-of-this-world creation guides the pair through
the pleasures and pitfalls of adolescence.
This far-out sci-fi fable brings every-one's favourite teen fantasies to life
through the miracle of Weird Science.
