'The Breakfast Club' Cast: Where Are They Now? (PHOTOS)

Posted:


Why do we still care about "The Breakfast Club"? Thirty years after its release (on February 15, 1985), it remains the definitive movie about the American high school experience. In his tale of five diverse kids bonding during a Saturday in detention, writer/director John Hughes captured some eternal elements of being a teenager -- the awkwardness, the alienation, the casual cruelty, the social hierarchies, the longing for connection, and most of all, the penchant for self-dramatization. "The Breakfast Club" takes all of this as seriously as teenagers do, which is why teens through the decades continue to see themselves in the the film's characters.

Of course, none of this would have worked without the sensitive performances of the five stars, the nucleus of what the adult press quickly and derisively dubbed the Brat Pack. The name stuck, and maybe that's why fans weren't surprised at the rocky paths they all took on the way toward mature careers and personal lives. If we got the "Breakfast Club" cast together for a 30th high school reunion, here's what we'd learn.
