Favourite Scene 1: Fight Club- This is a Chemical Burn

Posted on the 20 January 2012 by Diana @azizaspicks

Now, I know this kind of feature or post has been done numerous time by different bloggers, but it's nothing wrong if I do my version as well, right? We are all intitled to our opinions bla bla! :) Kudos for the one who first started, sorry I don't know your name!
Anyway, to start with, just a light, bad-ass ascene from Fight Club, one the best films out there! It's big, powerful, raw, with a lot of action, witty dialog and no-bullshit attitudes. It's probably one of Brad Pitt's best performances to date(in my opinion) and the next scene is a perfect example of that:
For no particular reason, I just love it! The pain and the desperation of Edward Norton's character, as he tries to shut out the pain through meditation, the speech/ philosophical shit Tyler says ("without pain, without sacrifice, we would have nothing"), the gestures(*slaps Norton* "this is the greatest moment of your life, and you're off somewhere, missing it"), the attitude, voice and interpretation delivered by Brad Pitt- I can't see anyone else pulling off that scene and those lines- everything fits.
And the end has the best line and a personal favorite quote: "It's only after we've lost everything, that we are free to do anything"


I want to hear from you guys- what is your favorite scene? Please let me know in the comments and link it, as well, if you can!
