The other day I was flipping channels and stumbled upon the credits and outtakes of an 80’s/90’s movie that I’ve never seen before. Molly Ringwald was in it, but I’m not clear on whether or not she was Claire or a new character.. Paul Gleason was in the movie as Vice Principal Richard Vernon. This is what really got my attention. Somehow, some way this is a cousin of the Breakfast Club. I have no idea how much or how little they overlap, but there is definitely a connection. I flipped over to the TV Guide channel but it was too late – already moved on to next time slot. Before I got around to looking online at TV Guide, I was sidetracked by various and sundry tasks – at any rate I never got back around to figuring out the truth about this movie. If anybody can help me, please hold out your hand of knowledge.
Not Another Teen Movie lists Paul Gleason as Richard Vernon, and Molly Ringwald appears as a flight attendant. This is probably what you saw.
I haven’t actually seen the film, so I don’t know exactly how the two interact.
It sure is. I haven’t had a chance to see this movie in its entirety yet. Hopefully the Breakfast Club references are plentiful. On the surface, this doesn’t look like my kinda film, but it has definitely earned the benefit of the doubt.
