I am a big fan of this film and have watched it maybe 15 times . Ed Norton and Brad pitt are excellent and also "Marla" Helena Bonham Carter . Anyway in my present tempory job until the enconomy improves i am a courier . Anyway got this job one of many on tuesday to pick up two bags of expensive cloths and deliver to NW3 near hampstead . Pulled up at the address and its a gated estate i though it was going to be a business address no name on the packages . Pressed the buzzer to be let in and a posh sounding women answers . She says to travel around the square and she is the house in the corner . I do this and she waving outside her very expensive home . I hand her one bag and then the other and ask her to sign my XDA . I look at her and immediatly recgognise her as marla "Helena Bonham Carter . I dont say anything as i am a little bit embarrased . At the time i did not know how old she was but she still looks great and thanked me and wished me a good day . Seems to be a very nice person . Anyway it made my day and yes i would .

Nice.

I heard a theory the other day that the narrator of Fight Club is a grown up Calvin, from Calvin & Hobbes, and Tyler is Hobbes.

I'm sure if you Google it you can find all of the 'facts' (and possibly never see Fight Club in the same way again)

If you'd known on Tuesday you could have asked HBC if it was true, struck up a conversation and ... well, who knows where it might have led?

I let a flat to her mum's PA once.

That is all...

A true male ending to a story and already answering what would have been the next question

The first rule of Fight Club is you do not talk about Fight Club

Writing as a gentleman of a certain age... why on earth would her age matter?

"Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale
Her infinite variety: other women cloy
The appetites they feed: but she makes hungry
Where most she satisfies; for vilest things..."

Why do i hear the voice of Patrick Stewart when i read that?

Because he's a member of the RSC? And that's a chunk of Shakespeare?

Or just my natural charm oozing through?

Schizophrenia? How appropriate!

I believe she is rather hirsute.
She was going to star alongside with her buddy Depp (until he eventually said no to Tarzan) as Jane Cheetah!

It does not matter at all . Fight club came out in 1999 when she was 32 years old and this is how i remember her . She is 46 years old today and in my opinion better looking now .

If i had known it was her i would have been very nervous but still would have called her marla for a bit of a laugh .

Great film. I was shocked by the twist where Meat Loaf turned out to be Helena Bonham Carter.

Was that just in the film?

"I am Jack's raging bile duct".
....That's how jealous I am.
