The Breakfast Club was a movie released in 1985 about five teenagers in school detention. John Hughes wrote, directed and produced the movie, which was digitally remastered in 2015 for a 30th anniversary release in theaters. Hughes' original title for the movie was to be the Lunch Bunch, but he heard a colleague refer to detention as the breakfast club, and so the name stuck.

In 2015, the movie was preserved at the Library of Congress for its contribution to society in the areas of culture, history, and aesthetics.
