Compare and Contrast While watching The Breakfast Club, it was difficult to choose a character to compare myself to. In the end I decided to choose Allison Reynolds, at the beginning she is very quiet and a little strange, but slowly as the film goes on she becomes very vocal. He begins to become friendlier as the film progresses and learns more about the other classmates. Like Allison in high school, I was a liar, a thief, and an outcast, but I also differed from her in the same ways. Say no to plagiarism.

I'm a lot like Allison in that I lied many times in high school, especially to my family and friends. The difference between me and Allison should be that, for example, I only told white lies; "When you grow up, your heart dies." That's something I wouldn't lie about, mine were like, "I did my homework." Another example would be when Allison stated that she "has no friends", while trying to hide her true feelings. I wouldn't lie to hide my feelings, I lied about my feelings towards my family just because I felt unwanted. Alisson and I are very similar when it comes to liars, but we differ in many ways. In The Breakfast Club Allison stole from a group of students throughout the film. Allison and I differ in thefts, for example during the movie a fight breaks out between Bender and Andy, Bender pulls out a knife and sticks it in a chair. Allison had reached over and grabbed the knife from the chair. An example of Allison's theft would be when she stole Andy's wallet during the movie, or when she stole Bender's lock while he was taking the marijuana out of the locker. My theft would involve taking a pencil I found on an empty desk. I would never steal someone's wallet or anything that contains their personal information. Another example of me stealing in high school would be when I stole someone's food because I was hungry. Even when I stole I always felt guilty and very terrible, and Allison seems to do it for her own personal enjoyment. Allison and I are both considered thieves, but I think we also have big differences. While watching The Breakfast Club I noticed that Allison and I were both outcasts in high school. For example, when Allison was found by Andy crying on a pile of books, she told Andy that her parents made her feel like an outcast at home. Another example would be when Allison made her sugary cereal sandwich, taking a big bite. Allison ignored the stares from her classmates. When I was in high school I was considered an outcast in high school because I was shy and barely spoke to anyone I didn't know. I was also considered an outcast because of the friends I had. Allison and I were both considered outcasts in high school, but we had different characteristics of outcasts. Please note: this is just an example. Get a custom paper from our expert writers now.
