Continuity mistake: Claire's hair changes in the library scene. First, it's flat, then she's got it poofed up with a flip on the ends.
The Breakfast Club (1985)
Plot summary
Directed by: John Hughes
Starring: Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald, Ally Sheedy, Paul Gleason
Five teenagers: a brain, an athlete, a princess, a basket-case, and a criminal are stuck in Saturday detention together. It seems like the only thing they have in common is that they each did something wrong and are paying for it but things change and they may actually start to like each other...

Andrew: We're all pretty bizarre. Some of us are just better at hiding it, that's all.
Trivia: In the begining of the film they are showing shots of stuff around the school (with talking over top). One of the things it shows is a plaque with graduation photos. The student on this plaque with the phrase "Man of the Year" is the janitor, only a bit younger.
Question: I realise that a lot of US schools look similar but would this be the same school used in Ferris Bueller's Day Off (by the same director)?

Chosen answer: According to the IMDB, the answer is yes. Both movies used the same two high school locations: Glenbrook North High School, Northbrook, Illinois; and Maine North High School, Des Plaines, Illinois. The director, John Hughes, directed both movies and decided to use the same school. He also uses the name Shermer for the name of the high school in Breakfast Club and for the name of the suburb in which the Bueller's live.
