I am Jack's Lost Youth
In the film Fight Club, the real name of the protagonist (Ed Norton’s character) is never revealed. Many believe the reason behind this anonymity is to give “Jack” more of an everyman quality. Do not be deceived. “Jack” is really Calvin from the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes. It’s true. Norton portrays the grown-up version of Calvin, while Brad Pitt plays his imaginary pal, Hobbes, reincarnated as Tyler Durden.
(Spoilers ho.)
I've seen that one before... it's absolutely brilliant.
On LiveJournal there's an icon floating about of Hobbes telling Calvin, "I want you to hit me as hard as you can."
