Based on Chuck Palahniuk’s novel, this gripping film directed by David Fincher includes one of Brad Pitt’s most mesmerising performances. He plays the enigmatic Tyler Durden, who, along with Ed Norton’s nameless soap salesman, establishes an anti-capitalist network around an underground fight club

– the first rule of which is easy to remember. Helena Bonham Carter co-stars in this sharp and savage satire. A rightful cult classic.
