6 Deliciously Good Food Moments In Film

1. The Breakfast Club (1985)

The-Breakfast-Club-the-brat-pack-8837260-600-316 The coming of age comedy directed by John Hughes follows five dissimilar teenagers as they spend their Saturday afternoon in detention together and soon come to realise that while they are deeper than the respective stereotypes they portray, they all have strained relationships with adults. Sadly, despite their developing friendships over the course of the film, they grow afraid of having to return back to their very different cliques at school and diminish all contact with one another once detention ends. This entry makes this list for one clear reason. The variety of foods a person desires to consume can be reflective of the kind of person they are. In The Breakfast Club, Claire€™s sushi represents her lifestyle of wealth that allows her and her parents to explore other cultures. Meanwhile the food in Andrews €œThe Jock€ lunchbox is a contrast to Jon Benders lack of food he has. Bender€™s lack of food is down to the fact that he is neglected and abused by his father. While Andrews€™s vast amount of food is due to the fact that his father is too involved in his athletic career and micro-manages him. Brian€™s lunch of peanut butter and jam sandwiches with the crusts lovingly cut off shows that like Andrew, he is also micro-managed, but by his over-affectionate mother. Finally, as Allison€™s high sugary sandwich of cereal and Pixystixs is not a representation of her relationship with her parents; it demonstrates her interestingly diverse culinary tastes.
