John Bender ”the criminal”
John Bender is sixteen years old, and has a father named Mr. Clark. John Bender is the main protagonist in the movie. He smokes cigarettes and marihuana. In the film, Bender learns that not everyone is out to “make him small”.
In the beginning of the movie, Bender comes off as a very tough person, and none of the other kids does not know him at all. However, he changes in the end by learning to accept the others.

All of his actions happens with Claire. She defends him a few times (in particular, vouching for him when he steals the screw from the door) and argues with him - he drives her to tears repeatedly.
