Fight Club Unique film narrative

2021-10-13 18:32
The story of "Fight Club" is not necessarily better than "Mind Game" and "Rejuvenation", but David Fincher turned the preaching hidden in the movie into a naked rebellion, especially the protagonist of the movie has a typical personality split. This makes the film seem to be shooting at social issues on the one hand, and probing into the individual's heart on the other, as if it suddenly rises up on the spiritual level ().
David Fincher used magic to construct this "psychological martial arts film". Jack is a patient with insomnia. He found a way to heal himself by participating in various healing groups in a prank manner and telling strangers. After crying bitterly, I fell asleep. Talking and confession are self-revealing scars, which are a way to get psychological comfort in a way that hurts oneself, and only talking to strangers shows that the bones are still protecting oneself. He fictionalized that he had testicular cancer to participate in the healing discussion, and another character in his heart, Taylor, also began to flash in the camera. Taylor represents a real power to prove oneself and solve problems with destruction or even self-harm. It is precisely by using Taylor, a character who is already a fictional character in the movie, that "Fight Club" is so sharp and so rebellious. ().
"Fight Club" is a dark, fast-moving movie. The audience does not have much time to think about it when watching it. However, unlike other similar movies, each of David Fincher’s fast camera changes is not necessary. It makes the audience feel boring, and has its own unique role. The most thrilling thing in the whole film is not what the movie is talking about, but how David Fincher pushes the audience into the mind of the narrator "I", forcing the audience to feel "I" involuntarily and immersively. This also provides another possibility for the storytelling method of the film industry ().

Fight Club quotes

  • Narrator: [19:14] You wake up at Seatac, SFO, LAX. You wake up at O'Hare, Dallas-Fort Worth, BWI. Pacific, mountain, central. Lose an hour, gain an hour. This is your life, and it's ending one minute at a time. You wake up at Air Harbor International. If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?

  • Narrator: [19:34] This is your life and it's ending one minute at a time.
