Lesson: fight club , 1999

Plot Summary:

You're young. You have an easy, well-paid deskjob. You have a condo, Swedish furniture, artistic coffee tables and a fridge full of condiments. Yet you feel emotionally and spiritually empty. You eventually find comfort in going to support groups for lukemia and cancer victims when there's nothing wrong with you until they're hijacked from you by another faker. Then you meet Tyler Durden, a man that shows you that not only can you live without material needs but that self-destruction, the collapse of society and making dynamite from soap might not be such a bad idea either.

These single frame flashes caused quality controllers to complain about "dirt" on the final reel. The film makers had to then reassure them that this was by design before the film was allowed to be distributed. Brad Pitt described these instances as "subliminal Tylers."

An example of two of Tyler Durden's one-frame appearances, which appear in the beginning of the film, Tyler Durden flashes on screen for a duration of one frame, perhaps foreshadowing Tyler's job as film projectionist, in four different instances. These are:

At the photocopier at work while the narrator says "Everything is a copy, of a copy."
In the doctor's office, when the narrator is learning about the testicular cancer support group.
At that group's meeting.
As the narrator sees Marla leaving a meeting but doesn't follow her.
