Yesterday in
ANS TV shown best film of the 1999 year -
FIGHT CLUB!
Let's talk about that film..

Fight Club (
1999) is a
film based on the novel
Fight Club (
1996) by
Chuck Palahniuk. The film was distributed by
20th Century Fox. It was directed by
David Fincher and starred
Edward Norton,
Brad Pitt,
Helena Bonham Carter,
Meat Loaf and
Jared Leto. It also featured an original
soundtrack by the
Dust Brothers. The film was a box office disappointment (although it was #1 at the U.S. box office in its first weekend) and critical reaction was mixed, but a cult following soon emerged as the DVD of the film was popular upon release. Many critics and audiences later had a change of heart and the film appeared on many 'best of the year' lists and soon developed a following. For example,
Entertainment Weekly, which had originally given the film a negative grade of D, later ranked the DVD #1 on its list of "The Top 50 DVDs You Need To Own." The DVD market, which was experiencing rapid growth at the time, caused Fight Club not only to break even, but actually become profitable.
