* EnforcedMethodActing: Reduced Creator/MollyRingwald (his co-star in ''Film/TheBreakfastClub'') to tears when in character as Bender. He was also almost arrested at a laundromat when he approached a woman in character in the same role, only getting off when he explained to the cops that he was an actor.

* EnforcedMethodActing: Reduced Frequently reduced Creator/MollyRingwald (his co-star in ''Film/TheBreakfastClub'') to tears when in character as Bender.Bender. Writer-director Creator/JohnHughes was obviously not happy about this and actually almost fired Nelson, when Paul Gleason, ironically playing Nelson's on-screen nemesis, Principal Vernon, intervened on his behalf. He was also almost arrested at a laundromat when he approached a woman in character in the same role, only getting off when he explained to the cops that he was an actor.
