The Brat Pack
Anthony
Michael Hall
The thin, geeky version in Sixteen Candles, Weird Science
and The Breakfast Club (Trivia Note: In the scene
where he was dropped off for detention by his mum, that was his real
mum and sister in the car!). His new buffness later shocked us in Edward
Scissorhands. His real name is Michael, but there was already a
Michael Hall and a Michael Anthony Hall in the Screen Actors Guild.
Emilio Estevez
Looks and sounds a lot like his father, Martin. The worried-looking,
jaunty young man was great in Repo Man, yes. The Mighty
Ducks on the other hand? . . . yawn . . . Once engaged to Demi
Moore, he married singer Paula Abdul in 1993.
Charlie Sheen
Emilio's brother - His name now makes us think of Heidi Fleiss instead
of some of the good films he's been in (like . . .erm . . . erm . . . Platoon?).
Demi Moore
She started out as a boobless but likeable sassy babe on General
Hospital and somehow became one of the highest paid and largest
breasted women in Hollywood.
Judd Nelson
He wasn't really a failure until he shacked up with Shannen Doherty.
Molly Ringwald
Unconventionally pretty with red hair, dark eyes and a pouty mouth,
she really was THE undisputed Queen of the pack. Sort of just faded
from the limelight thanks to some poor movie choices, and ended up
starring in French films.
Rob Lowe
Had a bad reputation around Malibu for screwing high school girls -
this grew into a bad reputation worldwide after his hotel sex
video fiasco! Played the slutty bachelor in About Last Night.
Ally Sheedy
So cute as Matthew Broderick's girlfriend in War Games,
so cool as the screwed-up pale chick in black in The Breakfast Club
but that was all really. Some blame her career tailspin on her
ill-fated relationship with rocker Richie Sambora. Overcame bulimia in
the late 80s and now writes poetry . . .
Andrew
McCarthy
Likable in Less Than Zero and Pretty In Pink as
Blane McDonough ("Blane?").
James Spader
The archetypal sleaze-ball bastard (much loved by all the girls -
natch!) who always pretended to be a nice guy.
Mare
Winningham
A minor Brat Packer since she wasn't too pretty or cool (or geeky).
