... Through its complexity and personalisation, internal conflict has a particularly intriguing quality that deals with the timeless themes of confrontation and the struggle with oneself. Through the exploitation of the conventions of mise-en-scene, lighting, soundtrack and intertextuality, and editing, Fight Club has multiplied the realism and dramatic delivery of conflict through conventions unavailable to other artistic mediums. ... Common to both scenes of topic, Tylers warm hued attire is symbolic of his anger, passion, zeal and livelihood, in the first scene in the form of the previously detailed shirt, and in the second his crimson coloured pants and shirt. ... Unlike Tylers, they are of dull grey and black tones in both scenes. ... In the "motel room" scene when the narrator is firstly framed at the same camera angle level as Tyler, the audience can realise that the confrontation between these two characters has been equalised through the narrators advancement into the realisation of Tylers identity. ... When that frequency has reached its pinnacle, both the narrator and Tyler are standing in a power confrontation whilst the narrator is searching for acceptance of the truth that he is Tyler. ...
In both scenes the jump-cuts, though explanatory and informative in nature, are abrupt irregularities that have been riddled into what could otherwise be classified as invisible editing. ... This coerces the audience too to feel that confusing sense of de-ja-vu that was expressed by the narrator in previous scenes. ... That path has been negotiated through a psychotic persona whose two alter egos entertain on many levels.
