Some movies aren’t just entertaining. They stay with us long after we’ve exited the theatre. We remember the characters, the dialogues and sometimes even inculcate their teachings in our lives. One of these cult films is ‘Fight Club‘.
When a US student named Allison Garrett was asked by her teacher to submit an essay that was to be a movie review, she went with this one. But how she went about writing it was, well, a stroke of genius.
Her essay had only 19 words. It began with “The first rule of fight club is you do not talk about fight club.” And ended with “That’s it, that’s my essay.”

Yes, you read that right. It was a bold move to be sure, but one that finally paid off. Her teacher gave her a perfect grade. She also added a warning. Have a look.
Her tweet now has over 43,000 retweets and 203,000 likes. Everyone is praising her for staying true to the movie and scoring well on her essay.
The internet is in agreement with the teacher and is lauding Allison on her humour and presence of mind.
They should just go ahead and let you graduate on that note💯

This is the level confidence and freedom I strive to have.

This isn’t the first time a pupil has thought out of the box and outsmarted his/her professor. Earlier, a student wrote a resume embodying the Marvel character ‘Groot’ and it was hilarious!
