What a wonderful movie! Do you guys know any other similar movies?

In what way? There are movies out there with a similar story (e.g. 'Secrets' is about five teens who get locked in a building together and bond, despite their differences - we have a good girl, a bad boy, a dork, a slut etc), but if you're looking for a similar vintage and feel, just start with John Hughes' movies.

Sorry I know you answered this 7 years ago, but do you happen to know what year this 'Secrets' movie was released, or actors or anything? I searched for it on IMDB but couldn't find anything. Very curious. Years ago I wrote a book about 7 friends sitting around getting drunk and they each decide to reveal their biggest secrets, and it was also titled 'Secrets.' I never tried to publish it - just thought it funny that there's a movie with a very similar plot - would love to check it out.

Looks like it’s an Australian film from 1992. Found this in wikipedia:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secrets_(1992_Australian_film)

The page says, “The film has notable similarities to The Breakfast Club, in terms of plot, style, and characters”

It also has a link to the imdb page

Thanks so much for the link! Sounds like an interesting one, though the reviews don't look too kind ; (

Underrated 80's Teen comedy
I would recommend Just One Of The Guys.

Like the post said any John Hughes movies
Pretty In Pink or Some Kind Of wonderful a good mix of comedy and drama

Say Anything

The Sure Thing

Revenge Of The Nerds has very little drama but it has a lot of heart and The Big Bang Theory wouldn't exist without this movie

Well, there was a Dawson's Creek episode (season 1, episode 7) that basically copied the plot of this movie, the difference being that all the characters already knew each other and there were three girls and two boys.
