11 Reasons Why Childhood Wouldn’t Have Been the Same Without John Hughes

1. The Breakfast Club

Is The Breakfast Club overwritten, underdeveloped, and super melodramatic? Yes. But guess what, so is being a teenager. The story of a bunch of teenage archetypes thrown together to hash it out over a Saturday in detention is, hands down, the best movie about being a teenager ever made (and I will fight you on that). Sure, the movie itself is imperfect (did Judd Nelson really need to hook up with Molly Ringwald?), but the emotions within and the characters built exquisitely capture the chaotic maelstrom of teenage life.
