"When You Grow Up, Your Heart Dies".....or Does It?

I watched “The Breakfast Club” the other night for the first time in at least 20 years.  As a 15 year old, I remember the first time I saw it in the theater with my BFF (before there were BFFs).  It felt so iconic and true for the 1985 me.  Each of those kids was tortured and isolated by the boxes that they were being forced into and who couldn’t relate to that teenage angst?
