How useful has a particular critical approach been in gaining a deeper understanding and appreciation  of your chosen film?  

There are many theories and approaches to understanding Fight Club, the one that has helped me is the crisis of masculinity. A strong scene which shows the crisis of masculinity is the testicular cancer self help group. The men are in a gym sitting down and talking instead of playing basketball which is what a gym is used for and what men do. Other things are in this scene which show the crisis of masculinity such as men sitting cross legged which is perceived as a feminine thing to do. In this scene the men hug and cry which not seen as masculine. Bob also shows the crisis because he has boobs which is not a masculine thing to have, boobs are part of a woman. 

Jack, AKA the narrator, gets jealous of Tyler when he seems to favourite Angel-Face and not include him in Project Mayhem. Jack shows his jealousy by fighting Angel-Face this also has links with homo-eroticism. I think this because Jack says "I felt like destroying something beautiful." which show inner desire and feelings towards Angel-Face.
