In this installment of the Learning from the Masters series, screenwriter Jim Uhls explains how he wrote the screenplay for Chuck Palahniuk's seemingly unadaptable novel Fight Club, which became the subversive 1999 hit directed by David Fincher. Uhls describes how to adopt a journalistic strategy when developing a killer pitch, as well as his peculiar approach to interviewing his own characters.
