Group Dynamics In The Film, Directed By John Bender I
In this film it exemplifies the group dynamic because it shows different stereotypical groups in high school. Overall the characters move from an “out” group to an “in” group because at first they all were very distant from each other and at the end they were all together as a group and they all wanted to be part of it. The identity of the students at the beginning of the movie was very different to the identities at the end. Towards the end the barriers between each student is broken down and their true colors come out telling each other how they really feel about their group in school. Many of the students tell of the pressures their friends and family put on them. The breakfast club’s group becomes a primary after they all spend the day together and share their deep feelings and bond. Each character portrays a different high school stereotype. John Bender
