The video itself is a stunning piece of work. “

Brad Pitt Talks About The Time When Everyone Disliked Fight Club
During an appearance on Marc Maron’s podcast WTF in 2020, Brad Pitt spoke about his highly esteemed project Fight Club. The actor felt that the dark humor and theme of the movie would not sit well with the audience. He said-
“Oh, we had the best screening ever. We had it at the Venice Film Festival. They do this midnight screening. For some reason, we thought it would be a good idea to smoke a joint before. We go in and they put you up on the balcony. You sit next to the guy who runs the festival. Everyone’s looking at you, they clap, and you sit down. It’s very formal.”
He further shared-
“The first joke comes up and it’s just crickets. It’s dead silence. And another joke and it’s just dead silence. This thing is not translating. Subtitles, it is NOT translating at all. The more that happened, the funnier it got to Edward [Norton] and I and we just started laughing. So, we’re the assholes in the back laughing at our own jokes. The only ones.”
