Glenbrook North Highschool, Illinois is the place where’s I’m starting a new project in Chicago, with four typical american highschools. And I’ve started with an iconic one, the school where the John Hughes « Breakfast Club » with Molly Ringwald was filmed in 1985. Most of the french people don’t remember the « Breakfast Club » film, when all americans do. It’s like a start, one of the first teenager movies, maybe a little bit naive, but turning the camera, an introspection, in the teenagers mind… behind the stereotype of 4 characters representing somehow the socials classes of of the United State of America of the Ronald Reagan years. Of course, Larry Clark brang much more with « Kids », but still, Breakfast club made sense in its context.
