Trailer
Why watch this film?
One of John Hughes' most iconic films, 'The Breakfast Club' has become one of the most remembered movies when we talk about school friendships. After all, with a delicious and typical afternoon session plot, the feature film shows the bonds that are created in a dysfunctional group - and with very different people - who come together in the emptiness of detention. The songs, always well selected by Hughes, give a show apart, as well as the remarkable performance of Molly Ringwald (recently seen in 'Kissing Booth'), which established itself as one of the main names of teenage productions. To watch and review always, preferably in a double 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off', good movie by John Hughes.

Sixteen Candles
John Hughes, the filmmaker and screenwriter, was one of the most interesting voices to talk about adolescence in the 1980s, reaching the peak of his career with 'The Breakfast Club' and 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off'. However, in addition to these two, he was also the director and screenwriter of 'Sixteen Candles', a less known feature film by Hughes, but which also makes an interesting overview of youth in the eighties. After all, here the viewer is invited to spend a day in the life of Samantha, a young woman who has just turned 16 and whose birthday has been forgotten by her relatives. The feeling of being "left out" is amplified, too, as her crush at school is dating a much prettier girl. It is the cue for a narrative full of ups and downs, adolescent dilemmas and love sufferings. But it is worth noting: among Hughes' films, this is the one that has aged the worst. After all, there are traces of xenophobia and misogyny, as well as an incitement to rape. To watch thinking and reflecting on important social changes.
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' is a classic from the 80s starring Matthew Broderick. It's fun, silly, and sure to make anyone smile! With a great soundtrack and a unique narrative compared to other films of the same era, this is a great pick for those looking for something to watch with the family.
