Description of this Fight Club Poster
Fight Club (known as El club de la lucha in Spanish and El club de la pelea in Latin America) is a 1999 German-American film based on the novel of the same name by Chuck Palahniuk. The film was directed by David Fincher and stars Edward Norton, Brad Pitt and Helena Bonham Carter. Norton plays the protagonist, an unnamed "everyman", bored with his liberal profession in American society, who creates an underground "fight club" with a soap salesman named Tyler Durden (played by Brad Pitt), and engages in a relationship with Marla Singer, played by Helena Bonham Carter.
Chuck Palahniuk's novel was taken up by Laura Ziskin, a producer at 20th Century Fox, who hired Jim Uhls to write the screenplay for the film adaptation. David Fincher was one of four directors considered and was ultimately hired due to his enthusiasm for the project. Fincher developed the script with Uhls and solicited writing assistance from actors and other members of the film industry. The director and cast compared the film to Rebel Without a Cause (1955) and The Graduate (1967). Fincher intended the film's violence to serve as a metaphor for the conflict between the younger generation and the value system of advertising.45 The director copied the homoerotic overtones of Palahniuk's novel to make audiences uncomfortable and prevent them from to anticipate the dramatic twist at the end.
Studio executives disliked the film and restructured the marketing campaign to try to reduce potential losses. Fight Club failed to meet the studio's expectations at the box office and received polarized reactions from critics, becoming one of the most controversial and talked about films of the year. Critics praised the acting, direction, themes, and messages, but debated the explicit violence and moral ambiguity. Over time, however, the film's reception became very positive among critics and audiences, and it enjoyed critical and commercial success upon its DVD release, leading to Fight Club becoming a cult film. . It is now considered by many to be one of the best films of the 1990s.
The narrator (Edward Norton), who suffers from insomnia and whose name is never mentioned, is an employee of an automobile company. His doctor refuses to prescribe him medication and, when he complains of suffering, tells him that he should go to a support group to see what real suffering is. The narrator attends a support group for testicular cancer victims and, after convincing them that he too has the disease, he finds an emotional release that cures his insomnia. He becomes addicted to therapy groups and the charade of pretending to be a victim. However, the presence of Marla Singer (Helena Bonham Carter) bothers him, as he realizes that she is seeking the same palliative to the problems in his life and fears that she will report him to everyone, so he negotiates with her to avoid ending up in the same meetings.
On the flight home from a business trip, he begins chatting with a stranger who introduces himself as a soap salesman named Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt). They begin a conversation about nihilism and the importance of doing what you think is right. Back in his hometown, he realizes that his apartment has been destroyed by an explosion and calls Tyler, whom he finds in a bar. A conversation about consumerism leads Tyler to invite the narrator to stay at his house. Reluctant at first, the narrator ends up accepting the invitation. Tyler agrees to let the narrator stay at his house on the condition that he beats him. They get into a fist fight outside the bar, after which the narrator moves into Tyler's gaunt house. The punches and fights, which eventually become commonplace between the two, attract the curious and the fights move to the basement of the bar, where a fight club is formed, governed by a set of rules (including the least of all not to tell other people about the fight club).
Marla overdoses on pills and calls the narrator for help; he ignores it, but Tyler takes the call and decides to pursue her. After making love, Tyler warns the narrator never to tell him about Marla. What seemed like a local affair becomes an advanced underground fight club, with a following across the country. Other fight clubs form, becoming an anti-capitalist, anti-corporate organization called Project Mayhem, of which Tyler is the leader. The narrator complains to Tyler, as he wants more prominence in the organization, after which Tyler disappears. The narrator is faced with the death of a member (Bob) of Project Mayhem, and attempts to shut down the organization. He tries to find Tyler, but his search is unsuccessful. In one of the towns where he searches for him, a member of the project calls the narrator by the name Tyler Durden. After this, the narrator calls Marla from his hotel room and discovers that she also mistakes him for Tyler. Suddenly, she sees Tyler Durden in the room and he explains to her that they are dissociated personalities in the same body. Tyler controls the narrator's body when he is asleep.
After the shock, the narrator loses consciousness. When he wakes up, he discovers through phone records that Tyler has been making calls while he was passed out. He unmasks Tyler's plans to create social chaos by destroying buildings containing credit card company records. In this way, the bank debt records of a large part of the population would be destroyed. The narrator attempts to contact the police, but the agents he speaks to are also part of the Project and attempt to "cut his balls off" for revealing the organization's secrets, which the protagonist manages to escape by taking the pistol of one of them. He arrives at one of the buildings to be demolished and attempts to defuse the explosives, but Tyler overpowers him and goes to another building to witness the explosion. The narrator, harassed by Tyler at gunpoint, realizes that by sharing a body, he is also holding the same weapon. He therefore accepts his personality (Tyler Durden) and shoots himself in the cheek, thus telling his partner that he no longer needs him in his life. Tyler collapses with a bullet hole in the back of his head, and the narrator stops mentally projecting himself. Later, members of Project Mayhem bring kidnapped Marla to him, still believing it to be Tyler, and they are left alone. Explosives are detonated, causing buildings to collapse, while the narrator and Marla watch the scene holding hands.
