Fight Club Movie question.

Recommended Posts

People keep referring Edward Norton as Jack. But he really has no name. He never tells his real name in the book or the movie.

* Addition: Obviously Ed Norton's character doesn't reveal his name at all during the movie because he is indeed Tyler, but to add on to why people refer to him as Jack is because of the book his character reads. Remember "I am Jack Smerking Revenge, or I am Jack's anally raped colon" so through out the movie Norton says these lines so people confuse him to be Jack. Although in the book it wasn't Jack it was Joe.

IMDB.com lists him as "narrator." I never noticed he didn't have a name until I listened to the commentary on the dvd.
