Fight Club (1999) Movie Synopsis
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.
