The Key West Film Society's flick this week is Fight Club, starring Brad Pitt and Edward Norton. One show only: Sunday, Jan. 16, Old City Hall. Mired in a life of corporate drudgery, Jack (Edward Norton) opts to spend his time crashing support groups for the dying— then he meets the charismatic Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt), a waiter, projectionist, and self-proclaimed "Guerrilla terrorist of the service industry." He achieves infamy by starting the Fight Club, a harrowing late-night sport in which men engage in relentless, bare-knuckled boxing matches. But this isn't a boxing movie. Members $5, non-members $7.
