The Breakfast Club

Five high school students from different walks of life endure a Saturday detention under a power-hungry principal. The disparate group includes rebel John, princess Claire, outcast Allison, brainy Brian and Andrew, the jock. Each has a chance to tell his or her story, making the others see them a little differently -- and when the day ends, they question whether school will ever be the same.
I don't think Allison's makeover is what makes Andy interested in her, as he was looking at her in a quite interested way just before Claire changed her looks. The coupling was unnecessary because they could all just stay friends, but I think the decision was to put on movie what the future would probably look like - that is, unless they made a "the next Monday" scene, there was no easy way to convey the idea that they would stay friends.
