Fight Club opens with a monologue:

"People are always asking me if I know Tyler Durden"
// People are always asking me if I know Tyler Durden.

This movie came out the year I entered college. I watched it when I was in college At that time, I felt refreshing, or it could be said that this movie was shocking to the young man about 20 years old. Later, I once talked about this movie with some very kind friends, but people often said, "That movie, It’s not interesting. Isn’t it just some old men fighting? It’s too violent.” Not only the Chinese, but even the Americans in the birthplace of this movie are also the speakers. Such comments immediately made me think of these people greatly. Lower. From such a work, you can only see the masters fighting. This is the so-called boring words and an abomination. There is nothing to talk about.

>>>>>>>>>>The plot of the movie is introduced below, Please don’t enter if you haven’t seen it... Because I don’t want to deprive you of your feelings of being a virgin, for the first time to watch such a work in its entirety. >>>>>>
I won’t say much about other thoughts. Among them, I have the deepest impression. , It was Tyler who took Norton to rob a small shop. He hijacked the young clerk to the parking lot, then shot him on the head, asked his name (Raymond), etc. Then the following dialogue:

Tyler: What did you study, Raymond? //What did you study in university?
Raymond: s… s… Stuff // (打打打打巴) East…east…thing
….
T: I asked what you studied! // I asked what you studied! What!
R: Biology, mostly.// Creatures... mainly creatures

T: Why? // Why?
R: I don't know. // Don't know

T: what did you wanna be, Raymond? // What is your ideal?
R: veterinarian. Veterinarian. //

Be a veterinarian T: so you need more schooling. // So I have to learn a few more years
R: too much school. // I have to learn more.

T: would you rather be dead? // Do you want to die?
R: no, please... // Don't. Please

T: you'd rather die here, on your knees, in the back of a convenience store? // Just die here, on your knees, in the back of a convenience store?
R: Please, no. // No, please

T: I 'm keeping your license. Gonna check in on you. I know where you live. If you are not working to be a veterinarian in six weeks, you will be dead. Now run on home.
// I have your driver's license here. I will check on you. I know where you live. If you haven't worked hard for your vet's ideals within 6 weeks, you will be dead. Let's go.

T(to himself, and to Norton): imagine how he feels. Tomorrow will be the most beautiful day of Raymond's life. His breakfast will taste better than any meal you and I have ever tasted.
// imagine how he feels. Tomorrow will be The best day of Raymond’s life. His breakfast is sweeter than all the delicacies of the mountains and seas you and I have eaten.

This is a scene that has appeared in my mind several times in 10 years. I think this scene is the epitome of this movie. Tyler brought it This is the feeling of other people. The feeling of liberation. Looking at life from a new perspective. Re-examining what is important. Wake up some of the forgotten things.

Such as the question. Do you wish you ever encountered Tyler Durden. If 10 years ago, Raymond’s scene Happened to you? So how will you spend these 10 years? What will you be like now?

Do you know Tyler Durden? Do you want to know him?
