The Paramount Theater presents the 30th anniversary of The Breakfast Club on Friday, March 27 at 7:30 p.m. For the first time on the big screen in wide release since the 1980s, gather your pack and head to the cinema for a true fan tribute honoring John Hughes’ most memorable and recognizable work.

The Breakfast Club, ranked number 1 by Entertainment Weekly’s list of the 50 Best High School Movies, defined an entire generation of pop culture and included such talent as Molly Ringwald “the princess,” Anthony Michael Hall “the brain” Emilio Estevez “the jock,” Judd Nelson “the criminal,” and Ally Sheedy “the basket case.” This 30th Anniversary release includes the completely re-mastered feature that has never been seen before on the big screen plus a newly remixed bonus content featurette titled The Breakfast Club: A Retrospective that takes a look back at the film that defined a genre. Featuring personal insights from cast members Judd Nelson, Ally Sheedy, Anthony Michael Hall and John Kapelos as well as contributions from filmmakers Diablo Cody, Amy Heckerling and Michael Lehman, this featurette is a must see for all Jocks, Criminals, Basket Cases, Brains and Princesses.

Movie Synopsis: Five high school students from different walks of life endure a Saturday detention under a power-hungry principal (Paul Gleason). The disparate group includes rebel John (Judd Nelson), Princess Claire (Molly Ringwald), the outcast Allison (Ally Sheedy), brainy Brian (Anthony Michael Hall) and Andrew (Emilio Estevez), the jock. Each has a chance to tell his or her story, making the others see them a little differently – and when the day ends, they question whether school will ever be the same.

The Breakfast Club: A Retrospective: Take a look back at the film that spoke to a generation and defined a genre. Featuring personal insights from cast members Judd Nelson, Ally Sheedy, Anthony Michael Hall and John Kapelos as well as contributions from filmmakers Diablo Cody, Amy Heckerling and Michael Lehman, this featurette is a must see for all Jocks, Criminals, Basket Cases, Brains and Princesses.

Conspiracy theory review: What if the 2024 assassination attempt was Trump ‘juicing’?

Donald Trump hit the deck as shots rang out, and while he was on the ground, and our attention was distracted, using the term borrowed from pro wrestling, he “juiced” – cut himself above the ear with a small razor blade. This scenario isn’t nearly as far-fetched as you no doubt think it is. Could...
