I will be discussing the movie Fight Club’s two main characters. They are Jack played by Edward Norton‚ and Tyler Durden played by Brad Pitt.

The name of the movie I chose to do this assignment on is Fight Club released October 15‚ 1999. I choose this movie because the main character has several disorders that the text discusses.
