What scene in The Breakfast Club was improvised?
The line that Allison says during the iconic scene, “When you grow up, your heart dies” was apparently an unplanned decision, and ends up being another indelible example of the free-spirited improvisation that unfolded during the shooting of the film.
Why did they call themselves the Breakfast Club?
The film’s title comes from the nickname invented by students and staff, for detention, at New Trier High School, 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”.
What happens in the Breakfast Club script?
On its face, what happens in The Breakfast Club script—five people sit in a room and talk about their feelings—doesn’t exactly seem like the best idea for a movie. But each line is so uniquely attached to its character that it can’t help but push the story forward.
Is that famous opening monologue missing from ‘the Breakfast Club’?
Yes, that famous opening monologue is entirely missing. There’s other images which made it into the final film, of the “rare tour of a high school at dawn on a Saturday”: the ‘Senior Spirit Soars’ banner, the graffitied locker. But the monologue – and its link with the imagery of the computer room, changing room, etc – is completely absent.
