Lead character, Bianca, is the main character and the lead protagonist of the movie, “The Duff.” Bianca is short, about 5’4’’, and is a little bit on the heavier side. She dresses for comfort and cares less about her looks and more about her friends and school work.

The Breakfast Club showcases five unique high school students who all unfortunately find themselves imprisoned in an all-day Saturday detention. The students go as following: Claire (a pretty girl), Brian (the nerd), John (the bad boy), Andrew (an athlete), and Allison (the strange, goth girl). These students come from very different backgrounds and social settings which proves to spark many conflicts between them as well as with their supervisor Mr. Vernon.

This failure to read clearly coded visual cues may also reveal that Cher herself is the one who is “adorably clueless” as she gets wrapped up in her own attempts to perform and maintain the illusion of perfect femininity. This is especially true in the presence of other female characters in order to assert her dominance over them. Once she has been transformed and steered in the correct direction, Tai begins to overtake Cher in the race for status as the key Bitch figure within their clique community. Once Cher is no longer perceived as the perfect hyper-feminine guru in her community, it is easy for her to lose her position as the powerful female figure.

Friendships are tested when struggles come into play. The play of Wicked brings in fantastic moral lessons for the readers to ponder. It provides issues that are relevant to today’s society and it can help one be aware of some tricky situations that they may encounter throughout an individual’s life. The characters in the play may not go about the matters exceedingly well, but that does not mean that someone cannot learn from the mistakes of how the situations were handled. The struggles that were faced entailed that relationships are far better than being popular, everyone makes mistakes but not everyone takes responsibility for their mistakes, and one is bound to be used or manipulated at least once in their life time.

“We’re all pretty bizarre. Some of us are just better at hiding it, that’s all.” This is a quote from one of the main characters from this film. This film is an older one and came out in the year, 1985. It centers around five high school students who spend their Saturday in detention.

The characters are John who is known as the criminal, Claire as the princess, Andrew known as the athlete or jock, Brian as the brain/nerd, and lastly, Allison is known as the basket case. We are also introduced to Richard Vernon the school principal and Carl the janitor. It helps us to remember that no matter how I may observe a student to be, there could be a very good chance, there will be some darker parts that are just waiting to be shared with others, they could be just waiting for someone to ask.
