Let's watch Fight Club from 1999, and break the first rule of Fight Club by talking about it. David Fincher's adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk's book about aging into manhood in modern society. Spoiler Alert for discussions about the infamous plot twist and explaining the film.
Plot of the movie we'll be discussing: An insomniac office worker and a devil-may-care soap maker form an underground fight club that evolves into much more. Starring Brad Pitt, Edward Norton, Meat Loaf, and Helena Bonham Carter.
