Characters & Roles

Each person within the group will be assigned a role to play...

Ashley plays Claire who is the 'Prom Queen' and a bit of a snob. She is portrayed as a spoilt rich daddy's girl who believes she doesn't belong in detention she will be serving. As our group is a group of 4 and there is only one girl, Ashley will also play the mother of Brian while Ismail plays the sister and Alison the 'Basket Case'.

Ismail: Since Ashley was the only girl and was in Brian's scene Ismail had to be the sister. He will have to try his best to do a girls voice however will not be hard due to him only saying one word 'Yeaah'. Ismail will also play the father of Claire within the scene, Andrew the boy classified as a jock and the rebel John Bender.

Rojal plays Brian who is sort of a nerd. His the genius out of the family but when it comes to socializing his isolated. Rojal will also be playing Andrews father who is passionate about his sons sports career.

Cristian has not got a role however is behind the camera making sure all the camera work corresponds to our plan and refers to the shots used in 'The Breakfast Club'. Although Cristian was also the overhead at the beginning explaining how people see 'The Breakfast Club Characters'.

1. EXT. SHERMER HIGH SCHOOL - DAY

     During Brian's monologue, we see various views of things
     inside the school including Bender's locker.

                          BRIAN (VO)
               Saturday...March 24, 1984.  Shermer
               High School, Shermer, Illinois.
               60062.  Dear Mr. Vernon...we accept
               the fact that we had to sacrifice a
               whole Saturday in detention for
               whatever it was that we did wrong,
               what we did was wrong.  But we think
               you're crazy to make us write this
               essay telling you who we think we
               are, what do you care?  You see us
               as you want to see us...in the
               simplest terms and the most
               convenient definitions.  You see us
               as a brain, an athelete, a basket
               case, a princess and a criminal.
               Correct?  That's the way we saw each
               other at seven o'clock this morning.
               We were brainwashed...
                                                  CUT TO:

2. INT. CLAIRE'S CAR - DAY

     We see CLAIRE and her FATHER sitting in their car in the
     parking lot.

     Claire is the prom queen and is clearly a snob.

                            CLAIRE
               I can't believe you can't get me
               out of this...I mean it's so absurd
               I have to be here on a Saturday!
               It's not like I'm a defective or
               anything...

                       CLAIRE'S FATHER
               I'll make it up to you...Honey,
               ditching class to go shopping
               doesn't make you a defective.  Have
               a good day.

     Claire rolls her eyes and gets out of the car and walks
     up the school front steps
                                                  CUT TO:

3. INT. BRIAN'S CAR - DAY

     We are in BRIAN's car.  His MOTHER is there and so is
     his little SISTER.  He is sort of a nerd.

                        BRIAN'S MOTHER
               Is this the first time or the last
               time we do this?

                            BRIAN
                    (upset)
               Last...

                        BRIAN'S MOTHER
               Well get in there and use the time
               to your advantage...

                            BRIAN
               Mom, we're not supposed to study; we
               just have to sit there and do
               nothing.

                        BRIAN'S MOTHER
               Well mister you figure out a way to
               study.

                    BRIAN'S LITTLE SISTER
                    (annoyingly)
               Yeah!

                        BRIAN'S MOTHER
               Well go!

     Brian gets out of the car and walks towards the school.
                                                  CUT TO:

4. INT. ANDREW'S CAR - DAY

     We see ANDREW and his FATHER.  Andrew is clearly a jock;
     he’s wearing a letterman’s jacket with lots of patches on it.

                       ANDREW'S FATHER
               Hey, I screwed around...guys screw
               around, there's nothing wrong with
               that.  Except you got caught, Sport.

                            ANDREW
               Yeah, Mom already reemed me, alright?

                       ANDREW'S FATHER
                    (angry)
               You wanna miss a match?  You wanna
               blow your ride?  Now no school's
               gonna give a scholarship to a
               discipline case.

     Andrew gets out of the car and walks into the school.
                                                  CUT TO:

5. EXT. SHERMER PARKING LOT - DAY

     We see JOHN BENDER walking towards us.  He is wearing
     sunglasses.  A car is coming towards him but he doesn't
     stop walking.

     The car slams on its breaks directly in front of him.

     Bender gets out of the frame.  Out of the car steps
     ALLISON.  She is dressed all in black.  She steps
     forward to look in the car's front window and the car
     drives away.

Planning the Remake

For the planning stage for the remake of the opening we had to watch the clip to see what the characters was wearing, how they act, the different camera angels etc so that we can do a similar version of it with the resources that we have. Each of the characters have different styles for example the Basketcase and the Princess. As we're not old enough to have cars we've decided to use toy cars instead and film it in a way that makes the car bigger than it actually is. We decided to film in Owen fields, entrance of the college and the inside of the college as it has similar things to want is shown in the opening of the film.  

Travelling And Arriving In The Breakfast Club

Travelling And Arriving In The Breakfast Club

The Breakfast Club uses different modes of transport to represent different characters. Examples are below:

The Athlete
This character is driven in a truck and the truck suggests
masculinity which fits perfectly with his athletic stereotype. Aside from the truck, his clothing also suggests that he is an athletic person.

The Princess

She is driven in a luxury BMW. Not only does this suggest she's rich but it also implies she may be popular. Due to her parents spoiling her, she has an attitude where she feels as if she should be respected by everyone, which is why she is considered the princess. 

The Brain 
He is driven in a cheaper family vehicle with his sibling in the car. This suggests that it is a family vehicle and his family is close. His license plate is EMC2 which is a scientific equation, which just proves he is the brain.

The Basketcase

This girl is taken in an ordinary car but unlike the others she doesn't receive a good bye message, she just exits and the parents drive off. This mirrors how lonely she is and could be due to the fact that people consider her as 'weird'.

The Criminal
He is walking, whereas the other characters were driven. This raises suspicion as to not only why his parents aren't dropping him off but why he's alone. This sense of suspicion and unanswered questions is just part of the reason as to why he is the shady criminal character, walking without awareness of his surroundings, almost getting hit by the car.
