It was shorter than I thought. More compressed. The film is over 2 hours and 20 mins, the book is audio formed between 5-6 so it felt like an abridged version of the film in some ways. The ending was a bit different in the book, Tyler blows up his boss’s office and kills him. But that’s not in the film. He does shoot himself in the head – but it’s ...

Nov 12, 2019 · Beginning with the staple red leather jacket “the exact shade of dried blood’ and a visual foreboding of the violence to come, items were hand-crafted in multiples and then deliberately deteriorated and manually stained to imply wear. “I knew he had no money,” says Kaplan.
