CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Tyler (Brad Pitt) convinces The Narrator (Edward Norton) to hit him as hard as he can.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
In this darkly comic drama, Edward Norton stars as a depressed young man (named in the credits only as "Narrator") who has become a small cog in the world of big business. He doesn't like his work and gets no sense of reward from it, attempting instead to drown his sorrows by putting together the "perfect" apartment. He can't sleep and feels alienated from the world at large; he's become so desperate to relate to others that he's taken to visiting support groups for patients with terminal diseases so that he'll have people to talk to. One day on a business flight, he discovers Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt), a charming iconoclast who sells soap. Tyler doesn't put much stock in the materialistic world, and he believes that one can learn a great deal through pain, misfortune, and chaos. Tyler cheerfully challenges his new friend to a fight. Our Narrator finds that bare-knuckle brawling makes him feel more alive than he has in years, and soon the two become friends and roommates, meeting informally to fight once a week. As more men join in, the "fight club" becomes an underground sensation, even though it's a closely guarded secret among the participants. (First rule: Don't talk about fight club. Second rule: Don't talk about fight club.) But as our Narrator and Tyler bond through violence, a strange situation becomes more complicated when Tyler becomes involved with Marla (Helena Bonham Carter), whom our Narrator became infatuated with when they were both crashing the support-group circuit. Based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club was directed by David Fincher, who previously directed Pitt in the thriller Seven.

+Galaxy Party I wonder if Edward Norton saying "Sorry, I fucked it up" was also genuine and not part of the script.

[@swish007]

the point of this scene was that norton's character was so numb inside that he just wanted to FEEL something.. anything. and tyler showed him how. when you've never been in a fight, the thought of getting punched is scary, but as soon as you get hit it reveals the reality of it.. that the pain is manageable, and even can be addictive because it makes you FEEL. this is why guys fight i think. Society so often tells guys they aren't allowed to feel.. or if they do they are seen as not "real" men. this movie is packed full of very interesting symbolism and metaphors. one of the smartest and most cerebral movies ever made, cleverly disguised in a brutish and gleefully disruptive package.

[@sleepyskorpion]

if you've ever truly loved and lost... you'll know that it's BETTER to feel numb... feeling numb is a gift

[@swish007]

i would agree with you there. but here the characters really haven't lost anything (anything important that is, like a loved one). and therein lies the issue.. so many people have lived normal and safe lives and they only really know that numbness, and they're tortured by it. they long for ANYTHING that can shake their world up.. although you see later on that when norton's character starts to fully achieve this, he regrets it("careful what you wish for"). it's that idea that people feel like something's wrong or missing with the world/themselves and they search for some greater meaning. and for those that are unable to find it, chaos and disruptiveness give them SOME kind of answer. i think this movie illustrates ultimately the pitfalls of this mentality; although it DOES glorify it for most of the movie. but philosophical pondering aside, there's never been a movie that so elegantly describes the feeling of emptiness and numbness from a life of materialism and safety; and the journey of completely rejecting that in favor of some kind of enlightenment through chaos or non-conformity.

[@sleepyskorpion]

swish007 Hmmm, you're right, pre-tragic loss, there is a longing to feel alive. To feel passionately about something, anything. I forgot about that. The story could have been quite dark if Marla had met an early death. Or if the protagonist came to the realization that Marla, like Tyler, was merely a figment of his imagination.

Pain is the purest and existential feeling or whatever you name it, which this body can experience through senses. It is earthly. If you are hungry your stomach will pain and if you've eaten more than enough it will pain. Happiness is a state of mind which we get easily bored after a period of time. It is dependent on your mental attitude. The very rain which gave you happiness, after a heart-break might not give you the same happiness. I owe my life to this movie. It changed the total perspective of seeing. Norton just want to feel alive or evolve in the midst of the same thing that have been passed on through generations. The same old routine.

Fight Club is one of those movies that hits the spot without missing an inch of it. The nameless narrator (Edward Norton) is an insomniac office worker who lives a materialistic life. From the very beginning the movie comments on the capitalist nature of society by portraiting how consumerism moves the world, but is unable to give relief in the end. Flipping through catalogues of new furnite for his apartment were the narrator's only personality trait. To fight against his insomnia he starts attending to support groups. By lying to people, pretending he has conditions he does not have, the narrator finds relief - the emotional acceptance he finds in the support groups is enough to allow him to sleep at night. The emotional complexity of the character is nothing unrealistic. David Fincher makes a subtle, yet clear, comment on the nature of materialist societies where no one really listens to each other nor care about each other. The system doesn't care about anyone, the distance between people - especially enhanced by how they function in the capitalist world - is a major plot point. However, when the narrator is finds someone who's a faker just like him he loses his emotional escape - " Her lie reflected my lie. Suddenly, I felt nothing. I couldn't cry, so once again I couldn't sleep". Shortly after Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) is introduced into the story, the main character loses everything he valued. Deprived of his possessions he seeks solace in the company of a man who is the polar opposite of what he is. If the narrator is a worker who's way too worried about his condo and his job, Tyler is a freewheeling soapmaker who couldn't care less about all those things. The contrast between them is clear; Tyler refuses any consumerist logic from the narrator whilst making he see how futile is the lifestyle he was leading - "Right. We are consumers. We're the by-products of a lifestyle obsession." The characters here portraid are so different because one of them is free, while the other is not. Tyler, in a nihilistic way, helps the narrator realize that his existence is meaningless enough - something that is clearly displayed in the capitalist world - that all they can do is giving up everything. The self-destruction promoted by the Fight Club is ironically what allows the narrator - as well as many other frustrated men - to find solace in their mundane life. Little by little the narrator is stripping himself off his previous beliefs about job, about behavior and the value of things. It's interesting to note that the narrator doesn't quit his job immediately, picturing how hard it is actually to cut ties with the system - he eventually does though. Many subtopics are discussed through the movie. We see the narrator and Tyler, now living together, talking about many things. They talk about how both had an absent father, how both lacked a sense of direction in life at some point and were told to follow the common sense - "He says, 'get a job'. So, I'm 25, I call again and say, 'now what?' He says, 'I dunno. Get married". The nature of the system we live in tells us what to do since the moment we're born, while both of them agree on that, they also agree that this is all a great waste of time. It's important to notice though that both them had no significant connections with other people, especially with women as Tyler comments - "We're a generation of men raised by women. I'm wondering if another woman is really the answer we need". As the club grows the movie delves even deeper in those reflections about what really matters in life - "Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy s**t we don't need". Tyler becomes the source of inspiration for everyone who attends to the fight club; everyone is much more like the narrator, but they're striving to be more like him. At some point, Tyler decides that the club is meant to be something bigger - what he would call Project Mayhem. While the original Fight Club was something kept like a secret idealized to give some sort of freedom, through self-destruction, to its members, Project Mayhem is about declaring a fight against the system. The frustrated collective consciousness was the straw that broke the camel's back - "We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pi**ed off". However, the narrator starts to slowly go against what Tyler was meaning to do - kinda of recalling a bit of his past self and a sort of respect for the authority of society - and when this happen it's the moment the movie reaches its climax. The genius of the movie is displayed when we discover that Tyler Durden and the narrator are the same person, they have always been the same person. Due to his declining mental health and his rather meaningless life, he created an alter-ego - someone capable of manifesting everything he wasn't as a system abiding person. The contrast created by Tyler's different personalities is amazing to watch as the truth unfolds; and the ambivalence created when we discover the truth about Tyler Durden is even more marvelous. This movie portraits very well how a person can reach the extremes of their mind in a system that overlooks the relevance of your very existence - when you become just a number, just a braindead member of society, having your hopes and wishes constantly ignored. In the end Tyler recovers his sanity only to see that his actions can't be reverted - so he only stands by and watches. The final scene is beautiful; what could be bettar than watching the system crumbling before your eyes while "Where is my Mind" plays? This movie is a masterpiece and it is so entrancing because of how real it is - in the end the movie shows many things we know and think but tend to keep hidden. It is provocative, funny and thrilling and most importantly: It is so damn real. The plot aged perfectly and I don't think it is going to get old so soon - this movie is a must watch.

[@manuelperez6905]

Pitt and Norton's characters are very well thought out. Theres a lot of effort put into painting them as two opposite sides of the spectrum. You can see it in their wardrobe, not necessarily the actual types of clothing they wear, although thats also a distingusing factor, but the colors. Norton wearing clothing with cooler undertones, such as light blue in this scene. And then Pitt with his badass red leather jacket. It really makes them so different. Norton is Paler with cooler undertones in his skin, while Pitt is more tan. I'm not sure if this was done on purpose, maybe they casted the both of them because of this, or possibly a great makeup job but either way, its amazing.

How much can you know about yourself if you never been in a fight I don't wanna die without any scars Probably my two favourite lines from any movie

Happy birthday Fight Club. 1999 & 2019

Brad's performance is so natural its crazyyy

This scene alone is a masterpiece...

[@tmsskits]

The biggest genius of this film is how it makes this feel so compelling and desirable

[@baharbuntar9666]

Tyler is literally the real cool guy

[@maestro-zq8gu]

Notice how Brad takes a drag on his cig exactly when Edward drinks his beer? I feel like that was intentional.

[@emilypetsche1]

The fact that the “you hit me in the ear” line was unscripted makes this so much funnier 😂😂🤣🤣

[@federicodellimmagine3676]

How is he smoking and drinking at the same time 1:40 Btw I'm addicted to that gesture 0:40 great acting!

[@omieg89]

Federico Dellimmagine the gesture is one of the unintentionally funniest moments. Love it.

[@landminehopscotch3617]

Brad and Edward sat next to each other at the premier and during the film Brad whispered to Ed “this will be the greatest movie we’ll ever be in”.

[@rajdixit7478]

best movie in the world this movie changed my way of thinking my lifestyle thank u david fincher for such a cult classic

[@CM2yv]

What changes did you make?

[@douglask7366]

I love the little hints it drops all over the place that you'd never think about until you re-watch the movie, such as the fact that Tyler was inexplicitly carrying both his and the narrator's beer

[@janesmith699]

Beautiful. ❤️ I remember when i saw Fight Club a million times in the theater everyone always lost it at this scene. So funny. "Why the ear?" 😂

[@zorntier1775]

Getting hit in the ear really sucks man it's like a flashbang

[@SaeedAcronia]

It saddens me that I'll never see the year 2999. Bet they'll release awesome movies then just like 1999.

[@ocnblitz]

Edward norton actually accidentally hit Brad Pitt, look at his face right after, his look, lmao

[@julioluiz]

the truth is: initially they were supposed just to fake the hits, but seconds before shooting the scene, Fincher whispered to Norton's ear that he should really hit Pitt and aim for the ear. Pitt wasn't expecting, then you have the two most natural possible reactions, Pitt dealing with pain and Norton laughing about it.

[@VixxKong2]

RagingIsMyHobby Then Bratt Pitt punched him too lol

[@procrastinationstation7175]

Júlio Luiz actually Ed Norton was supposed to just hit Brad but he ended up accidentally hit him in the ear

[@adamkay7106]

I believe fighting shouldnt be as much of a bad thing as its seen as today. Sometimes u can become friends with people u hate after a fight or just feel alot better after one

[@sarahl9398]

God what a movie. Watched it in my teens, then my twenties, about to give it a go in my thirties. It's truly a classic and deserves its cult following. Brad at his prime was something else.

[@whoaaxmyfry]

I will always enjoy watching Brad Pitt hop up and down like a little bunny.

[@beavcity]

greatest movie scene of all time

[@ajrodriguez4571]

I love this scene but that is a very bold statement

[@MrCALLIGHTMAN]

Steven Dynamite What about "What's in the Box?" or " The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist."?

[@jimmyj5703]

Steven Dynamite Not even close. Restaurant shooting (The Godfather), Funny how? (Goodfellas), SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!(Scarface), three way mexican standoff (The Good, The bad, And The Ugly), twist dance scene (Pulp Fiction), bullet time (The Matrix). This scene is iconic, but the aforementioned scenes are alot more memorable.

[@tylerdurden1540]

Even I have to say that's a little bit bold

[@Genevasplaytime]

Its a good shout, i would say i AM YOUR FATHER! Is just above it.

[@neoasura]

I copied Tyler Durdens hairstyle from this back in 1999 when I graduated HS, yes..I still rock it today, yes I am ok with that.

how do you style it like that

May I repeat that Fight Club certainly is a good film if not a masterpiece. It is extremely violent but violence is the real core of this film which is never boring thanks to the wonderful interpretation of the actors and actresses.

I always loved the way how Brad Pitt drink that beer at the end So satisfying

One of the movies I genuinely am happy to have watched...

[@GravityK-b]

Great performances from Brad Pitt and Edward Norton from the witty dialogue, excellent dynamic they had and having rad as hell characters with one already being badass and the other becoming one, really makes me believe they will born for the roles of this film. Love Fight Club and the characters in it will forever be iconic.

First rule of the Fight Club : You should not hit in the ear...

[@MrBenny10101]

This movie is such a fantasy In real life, probably after your 6th or 7th time you've spent a month with a broken hand/rib/eye-socket and lost your 5th or 6th tooth in a year, you'd be like.. "this is kinda gettin' old"

I normally don't dig Pitt but the 'surprise me' and the dancing in the hallway are firmly entrenched in my positive memories

[@kiddfaith4397]

The best part of this was that he was told he was going to be punched in the shoulder during filming! When he got his ear punched instead his reaction was all real, not acting, and the producers ran with the scene. XD

Happy 20th Anniversary Fight Club !!!
