Andrew ...
This character in 'The Breakfast Club' instantly is seen to be into his sport as symbolised by his clothing that he wears. The nike singlet and trackies clearly represents Andrew as being the typical high school jock (sporty guy) and that being his forte, it would be normal to think that he doesn't have a brain. As shown as the film progresses there are two times when he is shown to be lacking intelligence. Firstly when he was asked to write on behalf of the 4, their was no motivation to do this and he decided Brian was going to do it instead. Also when they were running away from Mr Vernon in the locker areas and corridors, there was two ways to possibly go and Andrew being more lovable among the group, decided it was best to go his way, ignoring Bender who of course happened to be right. Unfortunately these two situations showed Andrew to follow his stereotype role even more.
During the film audiences learn a little more about him as a person and how much he cares for others (especially Claire). The reason he is more kind to Claire is because she is the popular girl and he has the exact same status as her in school and are both well known. The rest of the characters see Andrew as a good kid but most likely wouldn't want to be associated with him because all he cares about is the popularity and sport. When all of the teenagers open up about their lifestyles at home and their relationships with their parents, the time comes for Andrew and he expresses that the relationship with his dad is poor because of the pressure he puts on his son to do well in sport. Everything else in his family seems perfect and he doesn't want to admit it when Bender approaches him on that topic. One of the best personality traits in his character is that he doesn't judge people from the outside, when Allison gets a makeover (for example) he attempts to stand up for the people he doesn't know 'I said leave her alone" when Bender is making fun of Claire.
Andrew not only is into his sport, but whenever he can he uses his body and good looks to his advantage especially around the girls. As he knows he is quite well off, he tenses his muscles in a scene where Bender is ripping out the pages of a book, to try and grab the attention of everyone.
Although Andrew isn't exactly a character that changes by the end of the film, he still continues to be a fantastic role model to the others and presents solid inspirational messages to the audience.
