Delaware’s movie is Fight Club
So I am starting my journey across the country one movie at a time with one of my favorites Fight Club. I own it and I love it. For the record until I get Netflix sending me the movies on the list I have to watch what I have, thus, I’m starting with this and not Fried Green Tomatoes.
Did anybody know that this movie was set in Delaware??
Anyway, here’s a quick blurb on the plot.
A lonely, isolated thirty-something young professional seeks an escape from his mundane existence with the help of a devious soap salesman. They find their release from the prison of reality through underground fight clubs, where men can be what the world now denies them. Their boxing matches and harmless pranks soon lead to an out-of-control spiral towards oblivion.
So let’s talk about the things I love about this movie:
1. Brad Pitt-Thanks to the great state of Delaware for providing the back drop for Brad and all his shirtless glory. He plays a really great part in this movie and I don’t think it would be nearly as good with out him.
2. The Back Drop-I love that this movie dark and gritty all the way to the end. From begining to end the movie feels isolated and alone. Almost every scene is shot in some dark dity backroom or basement. It’s not pretty but it is sexy in a sweaty, bruised and bleeding kind of way.
3. Plot Twist-This movie has one of the best plot twist ever, enough said.
Things I hate about this movie:
Helena Bonham Carter-I hate her in everything she does not just this. If it wasn’t for the fact she was married to Tim Burton no one would know or care who she was. I will say this though she plays Marla Singer who I guess in this movie is the person you are supposed to hate so mission accomplished.

This looks great! Reading your blog makes me think of all the way mine could improve. This was truly unique and witty. I wouldn’t have thought about also adding the sound track. Sometimes that is the best part about the movie. I found your comment very insightful and most of all I could hear you in the words. This truly is something I would read on a daily bases. Thanks for sending me the link.
Lookin’ good. How did I not know “Where is my Mind” is off this movie? It’s one of Jody’s faves. Can’t wait until you get to Oregon. Keep it up, I’ll keep checkin’ in.
