Episode 55: Fight Club (1999)

fightclubIn the second half of our look at millennium anxiety films, we examine the incredible mind-bender that is 1999's "Fight Club." Directed by David Fincher, written by Jim Uhls (based on a novel by Chuck Palahniuk), the film stars Edward Nortan as simply "The Narrator," who takes us on a journey of discovery, rediscovery, and the perils of getting back in touch with our primal nature.

Plus, learn what two films in a composite-genre the trio will be reviewing in episodes 56 and 57!
