Did you know that in THE BREAKFAST CLUB

Did you know that the iconic shot at the end of The Breakfast Club was improvised? Judd Nelson was just supposed to walk off into the sunset, but director John Hughes had asked Nelson to play around with a couple different actions as he walked. When they were wrapping up filming the scene, Nelson suddenly raised his fist into the air and John Hughes loved it. That take ended up in the film and became an iconic piece of film history!

It's a timeless movie. Change my mind.

Damn they don’t make movies like this no more.

Everything judd Nelson said and performed in the movie was iconic. His outfit alone inspired the grunge era!!! Eat it 😋

It's amazing when you find out that a lot of things in the movie are improvised

Tbh me and my friends were hanging after school and our school has a similar field and as one of my old buds walked through the field I called out "hey quincy! DONT YOU FORGET ABOUT ME!" He kept walking away and pointing his fist up in the air lmao my 13 year old mind was blown away as I jumped up and down screaming "he did the thing!"

Still can't believe they made a 40 year old man play a teenager

Literally the breakfast club had a script but apparently actors in the 80s really liked to improvise lol. Like 95% of this movie is improvised 😅

Love this movie and have started making videos about it leading up to the 40th anniversary of them having detention on March 24, 2024.

That scene was way too good i found it in one of video edits of 80s genre synthwave song by Ollie Wride having thay scene in the video.

[ivmarie]

Ive seen the movie but I didn’t really think it was all that

[Soulman-]

Yeah, an iconic piece in the most over rated movie of all time. Honestly, people act like this is one of the greatest movies ever but it's just poorly made and extremely dumb.
