Plot – You are not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the contents of your wallet. You are not your elegant khakis. You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake. The first thing that happens to you is that you cannot sleep. Next thing you know, you got a gun in your mouth. Then you meet Tyler Durden. Let me tell you about him. He had a plan. We believed in Tyler. Tyler says that what you own, ends up owning you. It is only once you’ve lost everything that you're free to do anything. Fight Club stands for that kind of freedom. The first rule of Fight Club is: you do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is: you do not talk about Fight Club. Tyler says that oneself’s improvement is masturbation and self-destruction may be the answer.
