This Saturday, September 27, the Houston Film Critics Society is hosting a David Fincher double-feature at the Alamo Drafthouse Vintage Park:
Join us for two back-to-back films from one of our great modern directors. We’re showing FIGHT CLUB, an adaptation of the once-thought unadaptable novel from Chuck Palahniuk – a film that pummeled its way into audience’s psyches, changing everything we thought we knew about reliable narrators, male bonding and social satire. It’s inventive, heart-racing, breathless filmmaking that became an instant cultural mainstay. The first rule of FIGHT CLUB is that everybody talks about FIGHT CLUB.
And we’re pairing it with a special SURPRISE SCREENING of another Fincher title to be announced later. But c’mon: it’s Fincher. You guys can trust us.
Things get underway at 5 p.m. Proceeds from the screening will benefit the Houston Film Critics Society, of which (full disclosure) yours truly is a member. But never mind that, because you get two movies for a mere $7 (tickets can be purchased here). Hope to see you there.
