West Newton Cinema presents Gen X series: The Breakfast Club
November 8 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm
This Friday, we invite you to step back, reconnect, and share a laugh together at our first Gen X Series film, THE BREAKFAST CLUB—the iconic story of five teens who, despite their differences, learn to find common ground.
Brad Abraham, seasoned screenwriter and creator of the comic series Mixtape, together with Susannah Gora, pop culture expert and author of “You Couldn’t Ignore Me If You Tried: The Brat Pack, John Hughes, and Their Impact on a Generation”, will discuss the Brat Pack’s legacy and how these films shaped the Gen X view of friendship, romance, and success.
