John Bender (Judd Nelson) "The Criminal":

This character is clearly shown as the rebellious boy, he is a student who continually causes problems in the school and the reason for which he is punished is for activating the fire alarm.

Although John's behaviors are not very good, these behaviors come from his family, his father abused him physically and mentally (such as putting out cigarettes on his arm), he did not know any other way to communicate with people.

The director is very strict with him for being the rebel and there is a scene where he threatens to hit him and humiliates him and leaves him locked up, being very cruel to him.

John at the beginning of the film constantly makes fun of Claire (he hated her), Allison, Andrew and Anthony but ends up generating bonds with these characters and stops bothering them.

Andrew Clark: “the Athlete”

This character is shown as the boy athlete, who belongs to the school's wrestling team. At the beginning of the movie, he looks like a tough guy, but then you can see that he really isn’t, and he does it to satisfy his father and not seem weak.

Andrew lives with a lot of pressure and the reason why he commits the punishment is so that he thinks that the father thinks that his son is great. Andrew's father does not want his son to be "weak" and will not tolerate any losers in his family.

Andrew doesn't really like wrestling, it's evident a pressure from his father (because when he was a kid, he was also a wrestler). There is a scene where he says he wants to break his leg so he can't continue with the sport, showing how sad he felt. He also remembers when his father told him “win, win, win”.

Is an extravagant character who is the classic stereotype of the "weird" or the one who acts in strange ways, referring to the "misfit" who does not agree with the system.

Allison is someone quiet and distant from others. She is someone who prefers to observe from afar and analyze. Such as the case of Molly, that she makes her confess about her virginity and about Emilio that her real problem is that she does everything that the others tell her. In that talk she confesses how she is ignored, this can be applied in the family relationship.

Where the family bond is scarce in her biography, perhaps they do not give her the importance she needs and she acts in these ways because she has a problem and nobody can help her.

Music throughout the film represents the way the characters feel. This is a plus point. Songs like:
We Are Not Alone
Don’t you (forget about me)
Have great relevance

At first the 5 boys do not get along very well, but little by little they realize that people are very different people, because these characters are very categorized by their stereotypes. When they start talking they realize that they are not as different as they thought. At first they come together so as not to get bored, but then they generate links.

In the end, they make a letter that the director asks them where they say to talk about who they are, but they end up saying that it doesn't make sense because they will always be stereotyped like that because that is his vision of seeing them.

We liked it because it left us these ideas or teachings:

•Understand the other with what happens.

•Understand that there are people who act differently from us.

•We always have someone to turn to.

•It's good to interact with people with whom I don't do it often.
