I saw _Witness_ with my parents, and shortly afterwards we saw _The Breakfast Club_ together. Both were released in February 1985, and I think we saw them not too long afterwards.

For some reason I remember we went to Dairy Queen after seeing Witness, but I’m not sure where we saw the movie, as there’s no movie theater right there.

_The Breakfast Club_???

Wow … did not recall that rating at all. But, yes – an R movie:
