As part of Banned Books Week, the Central Arkansas Library System is showing the 1999 film Fight Club, which is based on the 1996 novel of the same name by Chuck Palahniuk.

Starring Helena Bonham-Carter, Edward Norton, and Brad Pitt, Fight Club tells the story of an insomniac office worker and a devil-may-care soapmaker who form an underground fight club that evolves into something much, much more. The movie was directed by David Fincher.

The screening starts at 7pm tonight (September 26) at the CALS Ron Robinson Theater.
