My Favourite film, honestly

Rating: 10/10 (3 March 2005)

I'd love to post some well written, arty, linguistic piece here, but the film largely sells itself.
I just wanted to add a comment to a film that mad me sit up and think, Wow. Maybe I am naive, and this film is simple, but, I was hooked to the bizarre relationship between Brad Pitt and Ed Norton. The twist actually threw me, much to my enjoyment, and I have re-watched the film many times to spot the early clues.
It is so cleverly done and I doubt many people would have seen it first time round.
The acting is great -though I'm told that I am not much of a judge- and the film is well shot for an indie production. However, it is in the themes that are presented that the film excels.
The base way with which Tyler deals with problems is so satisfying. Threatening a man with death if he doesn't pursue a forgotten career seems excessive at first, but on reflection, is it so terrible?
This film makes you think, and was hugely original to my eyes. Watch it and love it.
