Details: What happens when five strangers end up together in Saturday detention? Badass posturing, gleeful misbehavior, and a potent dose of angst. With this exuberant, disarmingly candid film, writer-director John Hughes established himself as the bard of American youth, vividly and empathetically capturing how teenagers hang out, act up, and goof off. The Breakfast Club brings together an assortment of adolescent archetypes—the uptight popular girl (Molly Ringwald), the stoic jock (Emilio Estevez), the foulmouthed rebel (Judd Nelson), the virginal bookworm (Anthony Michael Hall), and the kooky recluse (Ally Sheedy)—and watches them shed their personae and emerge into unlikely friendships. With its highly quotable dialogue and star-making performances, this exploration of the trials of adolescence became an era-defining pop-culture phenomenon, one whose influence now spans generations. 4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES • New 4K digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack • Alternate 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack • One 4K UHD disc of the film presented in Dolby Vision HDR and one Blu-ray with the film and special features • Audio commentary featuring actors Anthony Michael Hall and Judd Nelson • Interviews with actors Molly Ringwald and Ally Sheedy and other members of the cast and crew • Video essay featuring director John Hughes’s production notes, read by Nelson • Fifty minutes of deleted and extended scenes • Promotional and archival interviews • Excerpts from a 1985 American Film Institute seminar with Hughes • Radio interview with Hughes • Audio interview with Ringwald from an episode of This American Life • Trailer • English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing • PLUS: An essay by author and critic David Kamp
