These guys fit the NightHawk theme so badly right? All of them sitting in one room for detention but no connection whatsoever. Lovely crossover that screams true! Faved

You have more combination than a restaurant man, it looks simple just people just sitting around but all of the details involved in it. Its like a lava flowing beneath the earth. The faces the positions, the expressions, the clock the stores. You make this look easy man. You skill is super high ^_^/

WOW! That's great! I saw the original of this in chicago, and this is a great combo of that painting and the breakfast club gang. I think john huges (RIP) would have been honored!

I think the way they are seated looks a little awkward but to hell with that its a good painting. I always love me some Hopper paintings and styles.

Well, well, I know about "Night Hawks"... great irreverent tribute! But even if I am a cinephile I do not recoignize all of these hawks. Molly Ringwald of course, hence the cafe's name, Emilio Estevez, the guy on the right whose name doesn't want to come, but the other two, no idea
Please help me!

From left to right they are:
Anthony Michael Hall
Molly Ringwald
Ally Sheedy
Emilio Estevez
and Judd Nelson

It's Judd Nelson on the right. The other fellow is Anthony Michael Hall and the other young lady is Ally Sheedy. Collectively they were (once upon a time back in the 80s) known as "The Breakfast Club".
