From the Archive: Fight Club, Top 5 David Fincher Scenes
Back in 2019, Adam and Josh took another look at David Fincher's FIGHT CLUB as part of the 9 From '99 series. Well, another five years have passed and Fincher's cult film is 25. A skilled craftsman and legendary perfectionist, Fincher's films are always a pleasure to look at, but for their Top 5 Fincher Scenes, Adam and Josh focus on how the director's style – even at its flashiest – serves the story and his characters.
